Is there a time limit on the return policy? I couldn’t find any mention on the Costco website. I calculated the price for what I need on New Age vs Costco and the differential is only about $200 more with Costco. Maybe worth it to deal with them vs New Age if there’s an issue Sent from my...

I received my samples a few weeks ago. They do look pretty darn good for a vinyl composite. My concern was and still is durability. How has the decorative top layer held up? A member of a Facebook group I'm on did a little home testing on the samples. Said it took a 5 foot drop of a hammer to...

Hey Dakota. General question. Aside from the tile itself, are there any fundamental differences in the tiling process of a garage space vs. indoor which only sees foot traffic? What I'm getting at is should someone that's competent in tiling a home be skilled enough to do a garage?

Thanks Dakota! And let me express my gratitude for this most excellent and informative thread. I'm sure I can say we all appreciate the effort and your expertise here! Product list for myself from the info I've gathered here so far: Rectified, unglazed, through color tile Thinset with latex...

Thanks for the reply. I wouldn't intend for the tiles to sit outside. Strictly in a garage. Is there anyway to get samples of the tiles? Would really like to see what they look like in person.

Are these durable enough to withstand the weight of a loaded 4 post lift on top or would tiles need to be removed to accommodate the posts? Also, any issues with moisture getting trapped under the tiles? Living in a tropical climate, it gets very humid here in the summer time.

Thank you!

Hey Dakota Been searching for a solution to transition from the driveway to the garage and found your post. How's the edge protector holding up to car traffic?

Would appreciate your input on the following space. 3 bay garage, 1111 square feet (not including a small storage area which I do not need illuminated). Dimensions will be 13' flat ceilings, 41' wide, 25' from door to back wall in the first bay and 21' in the remaining two. No windows, per...

Not a 'working' garage for the most part. Some minor maintenance, but nothing requiring back and forth of toolboxes and creepers. Thanks. I've seen/read that link before. My first preference is tile, but the costs for materials and labor are what are making me hesitant. Question for you...

Also just noticed you're in Visalia. Lived there for 3 years. Where abouts are you?

Good points. Bare concrete is...well...boring. And not very aesthetically pleasing. Tile would probably pose the same problems. Don't see paint as a durable option. Chipping, cracking. Would probably end up looking like garbage in short order.

New pour

Lots of threads on stamped concrete on walkways and patios. But has anyone done it on garage flooring? Would like to mimic the look of tile without the cost of materials and labor.

I was quoted about $7000 before install directly from AC Lifts. So, yeah, they're not cheap.
