Default Garage Flooring??

Hoping to move in four weeks if all goes through smoothly...

Looking at Garage floor options.. have painted floor in current one but fancy the click together flooring maybe black/white or red...

Has anyone got anything simular & if so where's best to get the flooring?

Only good solution is a tiled floor with solid adhesive.

Paint comes off, clip together tiles are a pain to clean


I'm on the look out for some budget thick tiles for a winter project as well.

Funny, I've just been looking into this also. I moved into my house about 5 weeks ago and thinking of the garage floor this next time home.

Had been thinking about painting it but now thinking about the clicky tiles or even the proper tiles, in light grey.

The stud flooring is a pita to clean. We have it on the ship and sweeping it can be a nightmare, even mopping it can be difficult but when it's all polished up and done right, it does look the dogs!

Especially when you come in and the rubber is hot.
