Re your question 2, my RD floor DOES move when I pull in. At first I guessed it was the landscape cloth under it, that allows it to slide so easily on the floor. Pulled it all back out, that was fun, only got cuts maybe four places on my arms. That took care of most of it. What helped more was...

A couple post-install questions and comments. When we pulled the cars back in, the first thing we noticed was the tiles rippling up, from the tires pushing on them. I gave that a thought, and realized the landscape cloth under then made it easy for them to slide! Sooooo, I guess I'll unzip...

The tiles arrived, all 16 boxes. We put down landscape cloth in the three car bays. We then started in one corner of the 2-car section and worked our way across it, then across the 3rd car bay, then the tandem. If we had done this on a Saturday, we would have just put everything out on the...

To do the design, with the extra walls sections sticking out, the online RaceDeck system wasn't going to work. I'm not an art or graphic design guy, no such software. But I DO have Excel. I adjusted the cell width to match the cell height, thereby creating squares. I then created in what were in...

Aliana, over in Richmond. And, I'll be getting rid of the mats, if anyone is interested. Griot's 9.5X17, heavy rubber with ribs, I'll sell them for a fraction of what they cost new, mostly still in nice shape.

The garage is one of those that comes about when one starts with a simple two car on a blueprint, and someone says "Hey, can we change this or add that?" It comes out looking kinda Frankenstein, but it works on the lot. This one started life as a two-car, then had two more spaces added, in...

Hey, More than a dozen years ago I had a house built, and decided to epoxy the floor myself. I am constantly taking on things I've never done before, usually without assistance, and usually screwing up the first time or two. This was one of those rare instances where it went mostly right, and...

Thanks Dubber! No, I mean at the back of the garage, there is are three sections of floor that are raised an inch or two, each of them 3'X10'. So they each have a little vertical face. I am bad enough tripping over them now, I'm a bit concerned painting to hide them.

Tiles have been ordered. Couple questions: What do you do with the facings on raised areas? Paint them to try to match the neighboring tile, or go with a complementary color, say one of the other three, to make it show? My inner designer is coming out . . .:bounce: When one puts landcaping...

Yeah, I looked at the Tuff Seal, it would indeed hit all the marks easily enough. But dang, it would cost a buck or two. Well worth it, no doubt, but I do have a budget to hit. Another likely dumb question. What does everyone who tiles do with the facings of raised areas at the back? I have 2"...

That looks really good! I cranked up a spreadsheet, so I could create a grid with 3" intervals, to fit all the various weirdness of my garage, make it a lot easier to sort it all out. Also had the wife help pick colors (and hence get her buy-in, ahem). I'm going to remeasure everything one more...

Thanks for the responses! Thankfully, no direct sunlight, the garage opens to the north. Well, I suppose if I use Free-Flow and spill chemicals, I can pull the relevant tiles, removed the landscape cloth, clean up whatever else, and drop in some fresh cloth and snap it back together. Think a...

AND, what do you guys do with the little step-up at the back of the garage? Mine is about 2"X3', all the way across. Do you tile it as well? What about the face of it? Thanks.

Hey, new member, down in Houston. I just moved here, new house, and I want to do something with the floor. After lots of reading on here, and my own past experiences, I believe I am going to go with RaceDeck, it's just a matter of picking which tiles, colors and patterns. The first challenge...
