Bobbeh Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 This is what I did to mine, quite a bit of paint and some RaceDeck flooring made it a really usable area (Good thing about the flooring if you move house you can take it with you!) : [ATTACH=CONFIG]224862[/ATTACH] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This stuff looks good though ! how much did that set you back ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbeh Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Its solid enough for cars to move on it and some things to be put on it for DIY work on your car - if I was intending to do that I'd use some kind of additional material to spread the load and not to damage the material (hardened plastic in my case) but I've had it down for over a year now and its as good as new. They also do ones with metal inserts for extra strength / durability, but they're more. I think my single garage setup for the flooring was around £650 all in. basically around 2.79 a square foot tile. But you can make it cheaper/more expensive depending on the tile type you choose.

Guest Mcdonnell Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 I just painted the walls white and got some floor paint to freshen it up in mine. I put some better lighting in there, padded the walls and put some shelves in Job done lol Though I might be moving house again but will be looking for a double garage this time hopefully https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180118/e7e530449249c9371a943f0952f2493d.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180118/1f4291087d0a6707f7e879e66923ebc3.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180118/4ebe8c47de23c9ceae4fe3ecaeaf6157.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180118/e354987ba19a0aa975d2d916d21ed587.jpg You livened up that place really well, mplavary. Amazing to see what a simple paint job and few shelves did for your garage. Are you spending more time in there now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its nicer to be in that's when I do bits in bobs in there that's for only thing that lets it down is how wide the garage is but were looking for another property now so hopefully my new garage will be bigger lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
