Garage Floor
 
Hi all

I'm building a new detached garage to house the CSL and create a proper man cave...

Does anyone have any experience of garage floor tiles, all the local tile shops think that kitchen tiles will be fine! I'm not so sure...

Cheers

Hello,

I have recently finished mine and chose interlocking tiles.

http://www.classica-home.ch

It took me about 2 hours to cover the area (about 30m2).

I am very happy with it. :-)

Kind regards,
Alex

Having laid few tiles over over the years
Would recommend going for porcelain with roughish

You wouldn't have to pay fortune for tiles keep eyes
Open at Wicks BQ ect they do blinding deals from time to time

Agree


Dark with dark grout, solid adhesive.......

Interlocking tiles can be a bugger to clean but I guess not to much of a problem if it's not heavily used.

Bit of under floor heating wouldn't go a miss������

Loving the chess board tile look!

Has anyone had any experience of the coloured resin floor screed?

Cheers

Vic,

Would you back butter the tiles when laying them?

Also, what would you do for the entry edge? I'm worried that driving in and out would crack the front row.

Instead of laying ceramic tiles and worrying about tiles cracking, you could use a self levelling latex and get that floor as smooth as glass and paint.. no dirty growt lines and no cracking
