Garage Conversion into a Modern Entertainment Room – Colchester
Project Overview
This project showcases a full garage-to-living-space conversion by Essex Fitters Colchester Ltd, transforming an unused, cluttered garage into a sleek and modern entertainment room.
Our client wanted to create a functional yet stylish space that could serve as a home cinema, games room, and social area — adding both value and comfort to their property.

The Transformation
Originally a standard brick garage, the space was completely stripped back and reimagined. Our team handled every aspect of the build — from the initial design and planning to the full supply and installation of all materials and finishes.
Key Features:
• 🧱 Complete Structural Conversion – The old garage door was removed and replaced with a modern, insulated wall and wide bi-fold doors, opening the space to the garden and natural light.
• 🎥 Built-In Home Cinema System – The rear wall now features a fixed projection screen with integrated ceiling speakers and spotlights for a cinematic experience.
• 🖥️ Wall-Mounted Smart TV & Media Setup – Perfect for gaming, streaming, or relaxing with family and friends.
• 💡 LED Spot Lighting & Ceiling Speakers – Flush fittings for a clean, modern look with surround sound integration.
• 🌡️ Fully Insulated & Heated – Making the room comfortable for year-round use, with discreet wall-mounted electric heating.
• 🪵 Luxury Laminate Flooring – High-quality oak-effect flooring adds warmth and ties in beautifully with the neutral décor.

The Result
The finished conversion is a bright, multi-purpose space that feels nothing like its original form.
From the seamless flooring to the acoustic ceiling and high-end finishes, every detail was considered to make this room both practical and premium.
Whether used as a cinema room, home office, or family entertainment space, this conversion adds significant value to the home while expanding its living potential.
