We went with a different tile: https://www.lowes.com/pd/Del-Conca-Woods-Vintage-Gray-Wood-Look-Porcelain-Floor-and-Wall-Tile-Common-6-in-x-24-in-Actual-23-5-in-x-5-84-in/1000046237 After putting it down on the floor and looking at it, too dark with the walls. This is much lighter in person...

Thanks. We looked into Tec Specialty SuperFlex mortar as it is supposed to handle temp changes well. This is the tile we were considering: http://www.homedepot.com/p/MS-International-Metro-Gris-12-in-x-24-in-Glazed-Porcelain-Floor-and-Wall-Tile-16-sq-ft-case-NMETGRIS1224/203673201 However...

I originally wanted to tile the entire garage. My wife had reservations about it because of the weather. She tiled the rest of our home. So we were going to tile a riser that runs around the garage and then epoxy the rest. I still keep going back to tile especially after we prepped and...

I so want to do this...we're tiling the upper part of our garage and I keep thinking why not do the entire thing. Is it a bad idea to use 12x24 tiles? Our garage is almost dead even side to side and I think perfect for tiling.

We really like that. We have an area right the same size as the OP, 3 12x12 slabs. The original slab is 1/3 the total size and the previous home owner recently added 2 more identical slabs which look brand new. The original is not in the best shape, cracks and all that. We have a walk out...

I did and no offense but that isn't it for me as far as the floor goes. I am not a fan at all of the metallic floor materials or mixes like that. People love them and maybe they look way better in person but not what we are looking for. The rest, yes. We have 7" trim in the rest of the house...

We were going with Epoxy when this started. Complete garage overhaul we finally got around to. Had some kind of epoxy/paint over it before Rented a sander and prepped the floor. Garage is 13 years old and the cement was perfect, no cracks, hardly any divots, came out really well. Our garage...

I wanted a wall mounted power washer but most of them are commercial models starting at over 1K and all I want to do really is wash the car on weekends. I bought this: http://www.lowes.com/pd/Greenworks-2-000-PSI-1-2-GPM-Cold-Water-Electric-Pressure-Washer/50353386 Because it mounted on a...

I have a 3 and spare change car garage and have been struggling with how to make it more user friendly and organized. Its 22' deep in the 2 car section and 20' deep in the 1 car. The wide is 29' and the 1 car section is 10'. I have a hoist in the single car side and would like to store 2...

Yeah for what I do the LED's have worked fine. I just buy the small ones and tape/glue magnets to them. You can stick them whereever you want and point them where you want without getting in the way. Welder is next...VW/Audi must use butter in some of their fastners like the driveshaft bolts...

I've been working on cars for about 7 years now and have slowly built up my garage. I now have a hoist, big tool box, big air compressor, etc...but there is always something more and I tell people you always go back to the very simple things. I've helped a few people get started on working on...

Check this stuff out. http://www.zipupceiling.com/2.0/ig/zipup_home.aspx Shameless plug I work with the inventor and owner of the company. Simple to put up, maximum clearance, washable, and easy to change if there is a mishap. Great stuff and the owner is a stand up guy.

I found this website and thread while searching for info on this toolbox. I have a Craftsman BB 11 drawer unit, tall and narrow. I've outgrown it and have seriously been looking at the HB box. Before it would have been more of a want but now that I've added a hoist, and a German car and all...
