Plenty of Solihull homes have a sizeable garage, and some have doubles. Yet the car often lives on the drive. That leaves valuable space doing very little.
J M A Group designs and builds garage conversions in Solihull that put that space to work. We manage everything, from the first survey to the finished room. Design, approvals, building work and finishes all come from one team.
Homes in Shirley, Olton, Knowle and Dorridge differ in age and layout. Some sit in conservation areas with extra planning controls. We check all of this before we design or quote.

A closer look at recent J M A Group builds from groundworks to finished space.
Your home is a big investment. Here’s how we look after it during your conversion.
1. One Accountable Team
We design, manage and build your conversion ourselves. You won’t be passing messages between separate firms.
2. Defined Scope, No Grey Areas
The full scope is agreed and documented before work starts. You’ll know exactly what you’re getting.
3. Professional Project Management
A project manager runs the programme and coordinates every trade. The build stays organised from start to finish.
4. Quality Built In
We check the work at each stage as it’s completed. Finishes are inspected before handover, not after.
5. Structural and Technical Detail
Larger or double garages may need steels or new foundations. We bring in structural design wherever the project needs it.
6. Planning and Building Regulations
We check the planning position and prepare Building Regulations details. That matters even more if your home is in a conservation area.
7. Scope to Do More
Want to add a kitchen refit or extension too? We can plan everything as one coordinated project.
We discuss your plans, from a home office to a guest suite. We'll also talk about budget and how you live.
We survey your Solihull garage, including its structure and size. We also look at how it connects to the main house.
We design a layout that suits your home and lifestyle. Windows, heating and storage are planned to fit the space.
We check the planning position with Solihull Council. Then we prepare the Building Regulations details needed.
You receive a written scope and an itemised quote. Every element is costed, so there are no surprises.
Our team carries out the conversion in a clear sequence. Structure, insulation, services and finishes follow in turn.
We oversee every trade and inspect the work regularly. You'll always know where the project stands.
We walk through the finished room with you. Anything outstanding is put right before we leave.

– Annexe-style living space
– Part conversions that keep secure storage

Not always. Many internal conversions are permitted development. But conservation areas and planning conditions can change that. We’ll check your property with Solihull Council before work begins.
Yes, it often can. You might choose a bedroom and an office, or a gym and a utility room. The layout depends on windows, access and Building Regulations.
Possibly, but it depends on the property and how the annexe will be used. Separate living accommodation often needs planning permission. We’ll explain the options and approvals involved.
It must, and we plan for it from the start. That covers insulation, ventilation, fire safety, damp proofing and the new front wall. Building control inspects the work along the way.
Timescales depend on size, specification and approvals. A double garage with a bathroom takes longer than a simple single room. We’ll give you a clear programme after the survey.
A converted garage can change how your home works day to day. Picture a quiet office, a guest suite or a gym just steps from the kitchen.
As garage conversion builders in Solihull, J M A Group handles the full project. One team takes care of design, approvals and build.
