I am looking to divide my long garage to make use of the space as a utility room. I already have a washing machine and taps plumbed in.
The door from the house into the garage seems to be an old external door (house built 1937), with a step down into the garage. Basically I want to partition the garage (still large enough for a car even though it never goes in) have a door from the 'utility' to the car part of the garage, and use the space as a warmer laundry/storage space and possibly naughty dog home.
What type of partition wall can I use, I guess I'll have to insulate if its a stud wall I choose, and what sort of door is required? The door from the garage to the back garden was installed in 2002 being external uPVC type and double glazed (as is the window next to it).
Also do I need any sort of building control/regs to apply for?
Many thanks in advance guys.
