Room Conversion Construction in Lagos, Nigeria
With Room Conversion Construction in Lagos, we turn underused garages, stores, boys quarters and spare rooms into bedrooms, studies, home offices and small business spaces with full building and finishing works.
Room Conversion Construction by My Space Design
Most properties have at least one room that sits idle, such as a garage used as a store, a boys quarters left empty or a spare bedroom full of boxes. Our Room Conversion Construction in Lagos gives these spaces a new purpose. We plan the conversion around how you want to use the room, then carry out the building, electrical, plumbing and finishing work needed to make it comfortable and fit for daily use.
A good room conversion involves real building work. A garage conversion may need a raised and insulated floor, a blocked in door opening with a new window, ventilation and wiring for air conditioning. A store turned into a bathroom needs drainage, waterproofing and tiling. We plan each change carefully, including any Structural Alteration Planning for new openings, and match finishes to the rest of the house.
We convert rooms for homeowners, landlords and business owners in Ipaja, Alimosho and across Lagos. Families gain extra bedrooms and study rooms, remote workers gain quiet home offices, and entrepreneurs turn street facing rooms into shops, salons or small offices. Our Home Office Design and Setup service completes work rooms with desks and storage, and every conversion is built with durable materials and close supervision.
Scope of work
Room conversion construction work we handle
Garage conversions
We replace garage doors with block walls and windows, raise and screed the floor, insulate the ceiling and add sockets, lighting and air conditioning so the garage becomes a comfortable bedroom or office.
Spare room to study
Spare bedrooms become studies or reading rooms with fitted desks, shelving, data points, acoustic ceiling boards, blinds and task lighting arranged around the window so the room enjoys good daylight through the working day.
Store to bathroom
We convert stores and closets into WCs or shower rooms by running new supply and waste pipes, waterproofing the floor and walls, tiling and fitting sanitary ware and an extractor fan.
Boys quarters upgrades
Outbuildings and boys quarters become guest suites, rental rooms or staff accommodation with new floors, ceilings, kitchenettes, shower rooms, secure doors and windows, and their own electrical sub circuit and water supply.
Rooms to business spaces
Street facing rooms are converted into shops, salons, pharmacies or offices, with widened openings, roller shutters or glazed frontages, display shelving, signage points, separate electrical metering and a lockable store at the rear of the unit.
Partitions and doors
Large rooms can be divided into two with block or drywall partitions, new doors and separate lighting circuits, creating an extra bedroom, walk in closet or office within the existing space.
Our process
How a room conversion project comes together
- Step 1
Room assessment
We inspect the room, check ceiling height, ventilation, floor level and existing services, and discuss the new use you have in mind for the space.
- Step 2
Conversion design
We prepare a layout showing walls, openings, fittings and finishes for the converted room, and a cost estimate setting out each part of the conversion work.
- Step 3
Building works
Our artisans complete blockwork, new openings, plumbing, wiring, floor screeding and ceiling installation in a set sequence, with a supervisor checking the quality of each stage on site.
- Step 4
Fitting out and handover
We tile, paint, install doors, joinery and fittings, then test every socket, switch and tap and walk through the finished room with you before handing it over for use.

Questions
Room Conversion Construction FAQs
How much does Room Conversion Construction in Lagos cost?
The cost depends on scope, size and finishes. Converting a spare room into a study is light work, and turning a garage into an ensuite bedroom involves full building works. My Space Design assesses the room and prepares a cost estimate before work starts.
Can a garage be converted into a bedroom?
Yes. We block up the garage door opening, add a window for light and ventilation, raise and finish the floor, install a ceiling and wire the room for lighting, sockets and air conditioning. The result is a comfortable bedroom matched to the rest of the house.
Can I convert a room in my house into a shop?
A street facing room can be converted into a shop, salon or office with a new frontage, shutters, shelving and its own electrical supply. We plan any structural openings carefully and advise on drawings the conversion may need.
Do you provide furniture for converted rooms?
Our Room Conversion Construction in Lagos covers the building and finishing work, and we add fitted wardrobes, desks and shelving where planned. Our Furniture Selection and Layout Planning service can complete the room with loose furniture.
