And this is why I argue with my wife that we need to get out of a condo and into a house.
Ztoon's garage was something I saw a couple years ago and would love to emulate, with a lift eventually to. Some other very nice garages as well! QUESTION: Garage people, I hear that the rubber interlocking tiles you can buy (which look amazing) are actually 'not good' any truth to that? Could it just be depending on climate?

I think the tiles look fantastic, but I don't like them for a "working garage". If you are just sort of using them for a parking space they work very well. But if you wash your cars inside your garage (like I do), drop fluids on the ground (ever try to change the oil in a 993?), etc they are a pita to keep clean as crap gets under the tiles. They make flow through tiles and they work a bit better, but still take a lot of effort to keep clean. My 2 cents.

the foam interlocking tiles are great as a floor mat to use next to the workbench if you plan on standing there for a long time.
as far as tiles go, they look nice, but the decorative protrusions in the tiles themselves sometimes make it a pita when you use a hydraulic jack. the rollers dont seem to like it much. i prefer bare or sealed concrete (completely flat) for this reason. |

Finally moved into our house yesterday. Another picture how much space the garage is.
