What's Involved in a Conversion

Planning & Design

We assess the space, advise on layout, seating count and screen size, and flag any planning or building-warrant considerations for garden buildings and basement conversions.

Insulation & Acoustics

Proper thermal insulation and acoustic treatment so the room stays comfortable year-round and sound stays where it should.

Power & First-Fix

Electrics, containment and cabling planned and first-fixed before walls close up, avoiding costly rework later.

Projection, Screen & Audio

Full home cinema fit-out — projector, screen, seating and surround sound — finished to the same standard as our in-house cinema builds.

Making the Most of Space You Already Have

A garden room, garage or basement is often the easiest place to fit a proper home cinema, because it's already a self-contained space — no need to give up a living room or spare bedroom. We handle the conversion end-to-end, from the initial site visit through to the final calibration, so you get a genuine home cinema experience rather than a repurposed shed with a projector in it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need planning permission for a garden room cinema?

It depends on the size, position and existing structure — we'll advise on this during your consultation and can point you toward the right permitted-development guidance for your property.

Can an existing garage or basement be converted without major building work?

Often yes — many conversions are primarily insulation, acoustic treatment, electrics and AV rather than structural work, which keeps cost and disruption down.

How long does a typical conversion take?

It varies with scope, but most garage or basement cinema conversions are completed within a few weeks once the room is ready for first-fix — we'll give you a clear timeline after the site visit.
