My Garage Make Over
 
Man, that's nice. Looking through your other pics (from the link) I like how organized everything is. Do you mind if I ask the price on the flooring? I looked into doing mine with the same material and it was going to run about $4/sq.ft.

Sounds about right. Can't remember cost as it was 6 mths ago. Just got round to posting pics :D
 
Is that a drain along the front edge of the garage? We are have custom plans done for our new home and I wanted a floor drain in the workshop part of the garage and the codes people are giving all kinds of grief about waste water. I just curious where those drain to and if they drain to the sewer system? We are having a heck of time getting our house desgin to fit the neighbor plan cops with the extra garages.
 
Wow lovely.



I'm just wondering...



1) What made you want to do that to your garage?



2) Wouldn't the garage floor get oily/dirty from the cars?



3) Where do you "work" on your cars then? like oil change, etc.
 
Wow lovely; looks fabulous, good job :goodjob.

I know some people that have put drains in their garage. What you do is put the drain in, pour the floor then once it is all signed off by the inspectors just break up the conncert where the drain is. They will never know.



Very nice job with the garage. Two questions. Where did you get those cabinets they look really nice? What made you go with that floor (race deck?) over an epoxy floor? Great job!!!

I had them custom made by a kitchen cabinet place. That way I could specify exact size and style to suit. They also made the trophy display cabinet.
 
I have 2 drains in mine, but now I need to work on the rest and get it looking as nice as this one! Great job, nice to have your dream garage!

Just drains to the side lawn. I have a long steep driveway and I figure its to stop water running down the driveway into the garage.

1. Saw lots of great garages and wanted one as well :idea Also wanted:

a) nice place to work

b) some where to display my concours trophies

c) some where to store all my car care stuff!



2. Yes floor gets dirty. I blow out dust leaves weekly and mop it every 3-4 weeks. Comes up great.



3. Don't do much maintenance stuff myself, but could floor is designed for it. Its also goot to lie on as well :heelclick



4. Check out the pictures in the link. I have lots of storage bins in the cabinets

Cabinets custom made by kitchen place. Yes its race deck. Epoxy flooring is rare here in Australia, so not a lot of people to do it or talk with. Knew a few people very happy with Race Deck and liked the idea of the pattern. Also knew its would be a simple install process. Overall really happy with the choice :woot2:

I have been looking into the best way to organize my own garage. I like the white plastic tray things you have for the bottles. Do those pull out? Did the cabinet builder make those too or did you buy them? Thanks for your help.
