My Garages....

this thread is full of win.

Here is my garage. Almost done, but considering where it was less than a year ago. . . during some renovation (gave up ~18sqft to enlarge a bath) I had to have holes drilled in the floor and concrete pumped in to fill the 2ft gap where the foundation settled.

I've put up shelving, hung cabinets along a wall (high enough so a car door can open under them), and painted everything white. I have I/O carpeting except where the car sits. I got a nice hot/cold hose faucet out of the renovation. I've hung my window sticker and our ADA certificates, and have a cabinet filled with license plates and automobilia that I need to hang. Also planning on getting a fridge and putting shelving around it.









Back in March.

awesome garages in this thread! i wont post mine yet since I am re-doing it. I am going with Race deck garage floor which is a pretty easy DIY without the hassle of epoxy. will surely post some pics once I am done.

I'm excited to see this, great stuff! Comes at a pretty penny tho!

Sidv22

yup. i looked at the price per piece and said 'oh its not too bad at $3.49 and then i realized that i needed 600 of those. lol

Literally the cheap stick on tile from home depot. It didn't stick, so I used some liquid nails to get it to stay. If I were you I would spend a little more on garage specific tile. This is the kind of stuff you seen in hospital hallways or whatever. The front tiles by the door have some tears in them now because when my brother is in the driveway I have to turn my way into the garage and the action of a tire turning on the tiles over time messes them up. However, the tiles that have to just handle to load of the cars and going in and out are fine.

As I said, the entire project (paint, tiles, liquid nails, and some other little bits) cost about 3-400.

Yeah I am in the same boat, I need 600-650sf worth of coverage. I talked with racedeck today about options with regard to floor drains. I guess their solid tiles are interchangeable with the open grid tile and you would literally just place the open grid tile over the drains and solid everywhere else. But $2-$3k in flooring alone.... Ummmm no! Not this cat!

Ahhh got ya. Yeah we have that in the kids play room in the basement for those accidental fingerpaint spills and whatever else they decide to get into, works out great down there. It will eventually be my gym room so that was another reason we didn't want carpet.

^I needed less than 300sq feet... So yea you'll be around a grand my way which isn't exactly the best way.

Here is a pic of my Kobalt cabinets in my filthy *** garage. This is a great incentive to get it cleane up this coming weekend. Get all the Christmas boxes back in the basement and clean up this horrendous road salt!
