Garage Builders in Worcester and Malvern
New single and double garages, garage extensions and detached outbuildings. Built to the same standards as our new build homes. Fixed price throughout Worcestershire.
A garage built by Court Property is not a flat-pack structure or a lightweight kit build — it is a fully masonry constructed garage built to the same standards we apply to the homes we develop and sell. As an established building contractor operating across Worcester, Malvern and Worcestershire since 1997, we bring full construction capability to garage projects: proper foundations, block or brick construction, tiled or felt roof, power and lighting, and full building regulation compliance where required. The result is a garage that will last as long as the house it stands beside.
New Single and Double Garages Worcester
Whether you need a single garage to protect one vehicle and provide useful storage, or a double garage to house two cars with a workshop space, we design and build garages to suit the site, the house, and your specific requirements. We can build in brick, block and render, or match the existing materials of your house — which is particularly important for properties in Malvern's conservation area or on estates with design guidelines.
Garage doors, windows, electrics and internal finishing are all coordinated by us. We can accommodate a wide range of door types — up-and-over, sectional, roller and side-hung — and include power and lighting as standard on all new garages we build in Worcester and across Worcestershire.
Garage Extensions Worcestershire
If you already have a garage that is too small — a common situation with older properties across Worcester and Malvern where single garages were built to older, smaller car dimensions — a garage extension can double the usable space at a fraction of the cost of a new build. We can extend existing garages in length, width or both, adding a lean-to section or full masonry extension depending on what the structure allows and the site permits.
Garage extensions are also an excellent way to create a dedicated workshop, hobby room, utility space or home office attached to an existing garage. We assess each project individually and advise on the most cost-effective approach before any work begins.
Detached Outbuildings, Home Offices and Garden Studios
The demand for quality detached outbuildings has grown significantly across Worcestershire over recent years. Whether it is a home office to work from, a studio, a gym, a garden room or a games room for older children, a properly constructed masonry outbuilding provides a permanent, insulated, dry and usable space that adds real value to a property.
We build detached outbuildings to order across Worcester, Malvern and the wider Worcestershire area. These are not timber-frame garden offices — they are permanent masonry structures with insulated walls and roofs, proper drainage and full electrical installation. Many do not require planning permission under Permitted Development rules, though we advise on this on a property-by-property basis.
Planning Permission for Garages in Worcester and Malvern
Many new garages in Worcester and Malvern can be built under Permitted Development rights without a full planning application, provided they meet certain conditions — including maximum height limits, positioning on the plot, and total outbuilding coverage. However, if your property is in a conservation area, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, or is a listed building, Permitted Development rights may not apply and planning permission will be needed.
We confirm the planning position for every project during our initial site visit and manage any planning applications required as part of our service. We have extensive experience with both Worcester City Council and Malvern Hills District Council's planning and building control departments.
Proper Garages, Properly Built
The garage market in Worcestershire is full of kit suppliers and lightweight frame structures. If that suits your budget and your purpose, they have their place. But if you want a garage that will genuinely last, that matches your house, and that adds real value to your property — the kind of structure a surveyor will look at positively — then masonry construction by a proper building contractor is the right choice.
Court Property has built garages and outbuildings across Worcester, Malvern and Worcestershire as part of our broader contract building work since 1997. We use the same employed staff, the same materials standards, and the same fixed price approach that we apply to every project. You will not find us cutting corners to make a margin on a garage build — the same reputation that underpins our new home developments depends on every project we carry out.
FAQs
Q: How much does it cost to build a garage in Worcester? A: A new single masonry garage in Worcester typically costs in the region of £20,000–£28,000 fully completed, including foundations, brickwork, roof, door, electrics and making good. A double garage is typically £32,000–£45,000 depending on size, specification and door type. These are substantially higher than timber kit alternatives, but a masonry garage built to building regulation standard is a permanent structure that adds meaningful value to your property. We provide fixed price quotations at no charge — call 01905 831778 to arrange a site visit.
Q: Do I need planning permission to build a garage in Worcestershire? A: In most cases, a new detached garage in Worcestershire can be built under Permitted Development without a full planning application, provided it meets conditions on size, height and positioning. Key rules include: the garage must not be in front of the principal elevation, the eaves must not exceed 2.5 metres if within 2 metres of a boundary, and the total area of outbuildings on the plot must not exceed 50% of the curtilage. These rules are more restrictive in conservation areas and do not apply to listed buildings. We advise on the planning position as part of our free site visit.
Q: How long does it take to build a new garage? A: A new single or double masonry garage in Worcester or Malvern typically takes 4 to 7 weeks to build from groundwork to completion, depending on weather, ground conditions and complexity. Garages requiring planning permission will have that timescale added before construction begins — planning applications in Worcestershire currently take around 8 weeks from submission to decision for straightforward projects.
Q: Can you match the brickwork of my existing house? A: Yes — matching materials is something we prioritise on every garage and outbuilding project. We source matching or complementary brick, block and roof tile from our established supplier network across Worcestershire. For older properties — particularly Victorian and Edwardian houses in Great Malvern and Worcester — we make additional effort to source period-appropriate materials where these are important to planning or personal preference.
