Does anyone have any recommendations for a good tape for laying on the floor ( similar to safety tape on factory floors ). Would like it to be permanent or near permanent, gray ( or blue ). I have searched vinyl garage floor paint, but many seem to have reviews on issues with sticking. I could paint, but when I use paint tape, it does pull up the existing garage floor paint. Thanks ..read more

Hello all, I am in the process of building a barndo. The concrete was poured about 16 months ago and power troweled flat. Concrete work turned out nice, some cracks as expected but overall nice. My walls are all complete and ready for insulation then drywall within the next month. First question is when should I complete the floor treatment. I am not sure what finish we are going to go with. I think I will just buff then apply a top finish. I dont know if I need to use a densifier or... Read more ..read more

I'm about to be the owner of a garage that has a floor in pretty bad shape (mid Florida) that I *think* was painted prior. I'm leaning toward tile due to possible floor not being very level and quite a bit of pitting (and the 12 gauge garage looked pretty cool) - thoughts? https://imgur.com/a/ifYHC0V I did do an epoxy floor 14 years ago that had been painted brown before the redo and held up quite well for the 10 years that I owned it (thank Fred at AlphaGarage!) - last pic in the set. I probably... Read more ..read more

Getting further on my kitchen remodel, which includes new flooring. And the flooring will continue into the dining room, down the main hall all the way back to the bedrooms. Vynil flooring is all the rage these days and yet I feel thicker hardwood is the choice. At Home Depot I talked to the local flooring "expert" to review hickory, maple or bamboo flooring versus the variety of vynil. He said vynil for sure for durability and ease of installation, waterproof, all that. Plus it goes down... Read more ..read more

Hi all, I had my garage coated in epoxy/flake and polyaspartic top coat today and it looks great. What doesn't look great is the unsightly transition between the wall and the floor. The rim plate (I think that's what it is called) is exposed but in many places it protrudes 1/2" to 1" away from the wall, making putting a normal baseboard like I would inside, impossible. I am looking for options for both material to use for the baseboard, and how to use it to accommodate the rim plate sticking... Read more ..read more

Hello everyone, first time poster. I recently bought a house with a 16x25 ft detached garage. The garage will be used to store my S2000, and do some light work. I don't really take the car out in bad weather, so snow and other elements getting in aren't too much of a concern. My concrete is pretty beat up, and will need to be addressed. The flooring options I'm considering are: -Epoxy: We have some great reputable installers here on Long Island, so longevity would not be in... Read more ..read more

Hello all, I wanted to ask some opinions on the best option to coat my garage floor! Goal: I want to use the garage as a gym, so my primary concern is preventing the dust that comes off of the bare/chipped/worn concrete that is currently exposed Current state: I have a heated garage, 484sqft, and I live in a cold climate (Alaska). It appears that the floor has been previously sealed, however the seal has come off in places, leaving pitted, pockmarked areas (spalling?) that cause concrete... Read more ..read more

Good evening everyone, We purchased our new to us home last year and one of the first things I did was install Husky PVC garage tile down on the old (possibly) asbestos tile. Well, Spring hasn’t been kind to us. The heavy rains have caused a little water to seep into the garage and make its way into the laundry room and the finished basement. I have a contractor coming next week to discuss installing a drain in front of the garage door. The pitch of the driveway is level with the garage and... Read more ..read more
