Hi everyone, I hope everyone is well.
In a few weeks time ill be starting my DIY garage conversion once my planning permission has been granted (new build)
Its a internal garage, 6m x 3.3m. Ill be knocking through a 2.8m wall which connects the garage to the main living space at the moment. And i will provide some photos in my next post.
My main questions at the moment are below and any help will be amazing.

My main questions at the moment are below and any help will be amazing.
- Would you do a insulated solid floor (DPM, Institution boards, chipboard) OR a timber suspended floor? Which would be easier to match the current floor in the main house (concrete slab)
- On the 3 external walls, they are cavity insulated, but i want to add more. However my TV/Media/Cinema space will be at the far end of the garage, and be on the width so dont want to take any more out the walls if i dont need to as i will loose more width. The TV will be going on the internal wall, sofa on the external wall 3.3 metres away. what would be the best way to insulate it? Wood Stud, Metal Stud, genie clips with rail?
- Speakers. As the width will only be 3.3 metres before any wall additions, the rears are going to have to go behind the seating area or to the side, What speakers would be best for this space including the front and Atmos heights (should they be front heights)
