Planning Advice & Frequently Asked Questions about 2 Bay Oak Framed Garages

How much space do I need for a 2 bay oak garage?

A minimum site area of 7m x 8m is typically required for a standard two bay oak garage, allowing for the structure plus access space. However, we can design garages to fit tighter sites by adjusting proportions and access arrangements.

If you are looking for a larger garage, we also offer a three bay oak framed garage.

Can I add a room above my 2 bay oak garage?

Yes! An oak garage with room above is a popular option. The upper space can serve as:

  • Home office or study
  • Guest bedroom with staircase access
  • Storage loft for seasonal items
  • Hobby room or workshop extension

Upper rooms require building regulation approval and may need planning permission.

What's the difference between a 2 bay and double garage?

The terms are often used interchangeably, but technically:

  • Two bay oak garage refers to the structural frame (two separate bays)
  • Double garage typically means parking space for two cars
  • Our 2 bay oak garages can accommodate two cars or mixed-use layouts

How much does a 2 bay oak garage cost?

It depends on design complexity and finishes. We provide full quotes during consultation.

Do I need planning permission?

Possibly. In many cases two bay garages fall under permitted development, but we can advise and assist if a full application is required.

Can I convert my 2 bay garage to other uses?

Absolutely! Oak frame construction offers excellent flexibility:

  • Workshop conversion with tool storage and workbenches
  • Home gym with rubber flooring and equipment
  • Studio space for art, music, or crafts
  • Business use (subject to planning permission)
  • Additional living space with proper insulation and services

The structural integrity of oak framing makes conversions straightforward compared to other construction methods.

How long does it take to build?

Oak garage construction timeline:

  • Design and planning: 2-4 weeks
  • Frame manufacture: 4-6 weeks
  • Foundation preparation: 1-2 weeks
  • Frame installation: 2-3 days
  • Complete build: 2-4 weeks total

Timeline varies based on complexity and weather conditions

Is installation included?

We only offer full build packages, we do not sell garages as kits.

Testimonials from Happy Customers on Trustpilot

“We first commissioned Sussex Oak Structures to build an oak framed garden room at our property in West Sussex. Russell and Graham provided invaluable assistance throughout with literally every aspect of the project. The end result is a quite magnificent addition to our home, aesthetically striking and one we now enjoy and spend an inordinate amount of time in.
Their friendly, accommodating manner was very reassuring and they were always on hand to discuss any matters that arose. Their high levels of craftsmanship and close attention to detail are clearly evident in the final build.
So it was a straightforward decision to ask them back last year, this time to construct an oak framed annex connecting our property to an existing garage, which they carried out to their usual high standards.
We have also employed them recently to install a juliette balcony and an oak decking project at our home.
With this substantial catalogue of work Russell and Graham have undertaken, we feel we are well qualified to highly recommend the services of Sussex Oak Structures.”

Superb craftsmanship and friendly serviceMark

“Graham and team erected our oak framed garage and annex last year and we couldn’t be happier. We found the whole process faultless. From great communication at the start, flexibility when arranging site visits and start date, advice and guidance when we had queries. We also had a tight building timeline which he worked to brilliantly. I would definitely use again. We’re very happy with the end result!”

Oak framed garage and annexMr J H

“Very happy with Sussex Oak. They fixed a persistent leak in an oak bay after two previous contractors failed. They were also polite with good communication and tidy. I would strongly recommend them.”
