The floor in the garage
is exposed to exceptional load and dirt. In
addition, it must withstand low temperatures and moisture.Therefore, the most
important is its functionality and durability. We have several solutions to choose
from.
When finishing the
garage, it is important what materials we want to use on the floor. They must be durable and non-slip. It's good that they are also resistant
to damage, scrubbing and abrasion as they will be intensively exploited.
Concrete floor in the
garage
The easiest way to
finish the garage floor is to use reinforced concrete. The screed creates a solid, resistant
to mechanical damage. It will not
be slippery and will withstand any load. It
is good to install in it a drain with a grate and properly shape it so that you
can easily wash the floor using a pressure washer. We will also be able to wash the car in this way even in winter. If we want to improve the aesthetic
qualities of concrete, we can change its natural, gray color. The paint intended for this type of
floor will help us in this.
Industrial floor
An excellent solution
for a garage floor is the use of an industrial floor made of resins. It is made in layers, by pouring the
mixture on a concrete foundation. Epoxy
resins form a jointless, smooth and very hard floor. The screed gives layers extremely
resistant to mechanical damage, abrasion and chemical substances. For this is flexible, suppresses
impact and noise. Added particles
or top layer of the appropriate paint, create a non-slip floor. The resin floor is very easy to clean. It can have any color. There is also the possibility of
changing the color by painting.
Gres tiles for the garage
The most impressive look
will be the garage floor lined with aesthetic tiles. Gres will be the best for this
purpose. Its properties allow it
to be used in places extremely exposed to heavy use and low temperatures. This is a proven cladding material,
also intended for the garage. Its
low absorbability causes it to be frost-proof. It also has increased abrasion
resistance. It's not difficult to
keep the stoneware floor clean. Pitting
spots may be a problem, as dirt is most often deposited there. However, when using an epoxy grout,
resistant to permanent dirt, cleaning will be much simpler. The whole floor can be additionally
impregnated with a special preparation for gres. Thanks to this, we will create an
insulating coating that protects against permanent dirt and discoloration. A floor in a garage composed of tiles
will undoubtedly be more elegant and aesthetic than raw or industrial. The floor can also take on a more
modern look. This will happen
when we choose a cladding in the form of large format tiles.
