Nice work with the porcelain tile. Looks good.

Ray, Your project is coming along nicely. I especially like all the detail you provide that will surely help others who consider porcelain tile for their garage.

Following is a compilation of the materials used to complete my tile floor. Purchases were made from a local tile store, Home Depot and Lowes. Prices were retail (no contractor discount) plus a 6% tax. 320 - 12”x24” Gres Geowhite porcelain tiles $480 2 - Schluter tile Reno ramps...

Thanks all for your compliments. Denwood - Nice work with raising the roof. Cave Creek Ray - I like your tile.

Absolutely, OJ. And thanks everyone for the compliments. We weren't the fastest but managed to do about 20 tiles per session. My wife did the buttering and I did the rest. Even my grandson buttered a few.

We finished the floor back in March. Sorry for the delay but things have been a bit crazy around here. The floor went well and I'm very happy with the results. After living with wrinkled, trip-hazard blue tarps on the floor for two years this is like working in a showroom. My THANKS to...

Mark, Please post photos of the interior of the C10. Thanks. Bruce

Mo real good suggestions on where to go, it's just trial and error finding a place that has tile they can offer at low price. The place I went to had a bunch of tile from Italy. There was a very difficult to see flaw in some of the tiles (not noticeable by most) and they couldn't come to an...

Irish44, I live in Maryland so my floor project has similar weather conditions to you in DC. I also kept stuff in the garage during the project so similar there too. There are several experienced/expert tile people on this forum and they will be helpful with suggestions as they have been for...

Closing in on the end of the 600 sq ft. Only 12 more (partial) tiles to lay and then grouting on about 1/4 of the floor to finish. This is what I'm calling a 4-phase project - moving cars and "stuff" around to complete the job without emptying the garage. Phase 1 was at the door end of the...

I'm almost finished with my porcelain tile floor. Dropped a hammer from about 4 feet yesterday with no damage whatsoever.

Progress has been slow but I'm finally about 5/6 of the way finished tiling the floor. Everything is now tiled and grouted except a section of the floor in the front of the garage - about 100 sg ft where the workbench and book shelves were located. The '37 was moved to the left-side bay and...

Andrew, Read the threads of others on here who have laid tile in their garages, there are some very helpful people and a wealth of information on how to lay it out, what tile to use, mortar, grout, etc. I'm about 1/2 finished with mine and very happy with the results so far...

The bay on the left is now finished up to the work bench. As soon as the huge pile of snow in front of the garage is gone I'll be able to switch the '37 to the left-side bay and tile the right-side bay. Progress is slow but steady.

The weather is finally warming - it's about time!
