Agreed. Nice floor 1. What did you do at the edges, and have you had any lifting at the edges? 2. Have you replaced any tiles since you laid it? 3. Did you acid etch the floor first? Thanks

Some very nice garages there.
Currently I have to cope with this...  But we're moving house and I have the space to be able to build my own one. So I'll soon have this...

Hey guys good thread!!!
I just bought a piece of land to build a new garage (and a house too!). Here's some of my ideas for the new garage. Any additions/modifications? 1. Must be at least 30’ deep to fit my trailer 2. Must be high enough to allow for a lift 3. Doors must be wide enough to allow for 1 and 2 above 4. It’ll have at least 5 bays 5. It’ll have plumbing for: a. Compressed air b. Water c. Floor drains 6. It’ll have power outlets everywhere 7. It’ll have Cat 5 to the home’s network 8. It’ll have cable/satellite TV/audio 9. Closed circuit TV to monitor what’s going on elsewhere 10. Cross ventilation 11. Dehumidifier 12. Space for an office/lounge 13. A full bath 14. Washer/dryer 15. Utility tub and a workshop area 16. Plenty of storage 17. Monitored alarm 18. Plenty of storage Thanks much!
