How much does a garage conversion cost in St Ives?

As a 2025 guide, most homeowners in St Ives pay somewhere between £6,500–£21,000 for a garage conversion. Costs in the East of England sit a touch above the national average, especially nearer London — Cambridgeshire labour and materials are a real factor. The biggest cost drivers are insulation, flooring and damp-proofing, new heating, electrics and glazing, and whether an ensuite or kitchenette is added. Getting two or three quotes is the best way to see a fair local price, which is exactly what our free matching service arranges.

Figures are a 2025 guide only — your matched installer will give you an accurate, no-obligation quote.

How long does it take?

  • Sort insulation first. Garages are cold — proper insulation is the key to a comfortable room.

  • Plan heating & electrics. Extend your central heating and add sockets where you’ll need them.
