I want to spray paint the inside of my concrete sectional garage walls but the walls are very smooth and damp, Is there any special precautions i need to take? I will be using some white floor paint i bought and mixing it with cellulose thinners.

I've raised my garage floor to add insulation so that I can use as a workshop as well as parking cars. The floor is 19mm ply over 75mm joists laid on DPM sheet with insulation between. I want to put a hard wearing finish over the top of the ply and have looked at epoxy finishes, but are they...

Hi all, I have a single garage in the back garden and it gets rally damp inside when it rains heavily to the point that puddles appear at one end. I have recently replaced the roof which was also leaking, that is now fixed which has helped matters. The garage is a breaze block construction...

It's rough around the perimeter and I know I can't use floor leveller where the car goes as it'll crack, but is this my best bet for filling joins etc and raising the edge around the edge of the garage floor prior to painting?

Hi, My concrete garage floor is a bit of a mess. Its looking tired, and stained in a few areas. I would like to do something with it, other than just paint it. Ideally I would like a smooth surface that can be swept/mopped. The garage won't be used for car storage, just for some DIY and...

My single garage has a badly cracked concrete floor which has subsided slightly. I want to use the garage as a workshop rather than for car storage and would like to level the floor and paint it,if necessary. I've read the excellent guides on this thread at the top but wonder if anyone can...

Hi folks. I'm planning to paint the floor (after rescreeding) and the breeze block walls on the inside of my garage. I'll paint the breeze block with a normal interior white emulsion, probably watered down to seal. At the bottom of the interior of the external walls there are two rows of brick...

The pictured stairs have a less than 90 degree angle on each tread. A guest dropped something down the steps and the sharp edge of each tread splintered (well, maybe 5 or 6). I used a good glue and masking tape to get the splinter back in line. Now I’d like to either 1. Wrap the sharp edge...

My plans to paint the garage floor have gone out the door as I now realise that you cant really paint onto Arditex NA, and it is only a sub-floor. Shows how clueless I am. What floor covering options have I got? I see there are garage tiles, and big rolls of vinyl, but the videos on YouTube...

I want to give my garage a clear out and a new lease of life, the floor has been painted by previous owner and obviously quite some time ago, in garage floor paint. It is a concrete floor. I thought I would first loosen any of the flaking paint and there are parts where this paint has come off...

I have a garage made of breeze blocks and want to paint them white inside to make the most of the light. Will I need to seal them first or would garage floor paint do the trick on its own? Or is there some other paint that would be more appropriate? Thanks for your help.

Hi all, I have a concrete garage floor. There are quite a few areas of damage and it’s uneven, so I’m hoping to put some self-leveling compound down to give it a cleaner look, which I can then paint and turn the place into a man cave. Question is, what is the best product to use? My local b&q...

Ive laid a double garage slab and build the garage on it. The surface of the slab is very dusty and easy gauges. Im guessing it wasnt trowelled enough This floor will be getting heavy use and ive tried concrete sealer and paint before and it was Sh*t and useless. Its just a skin and i need...

I've recently moved house, and I'm trying to solve an issue with the single skin double garage. The garage backs onto my garden, which is a lot higher than the garage and retained by a vertical row of sleepers. The side of the garage is also positioned close to a stone boundary wall...

Sorting garage. Thought that if I put as much on shelves as possible would be able to clear floor. In photo the ladder is taking up a lot of space. Is it worth putting it along bottom so touching floor to make space for shelves? Maybe with ladder hooks at ground level. Is painting the...

Hello Ive got a concrete floor in the garage and its always very dusty. Its basically solid but when I sweep it I get a small pile of soft sand. I assume it wasn't mixed correctly when it went down. Any tips on how best to deal with this. I think its too dusty for floor paint. Thanks

Morning, (Have checked existing posts but wanted to get up to date information and some other questions). I need to self level approximately 12m² of garage floor. The floor has a lot of imperfections up to 3-4mm deep in places but in some places it's completely smooth. I think my idea would be...

I've just had a new concrete garage base put in and want to paint the floor after I've fitted the garage. Do I need to seal it with anything before I paint it with floor paint? I want to make sure it doesn't all start peeling away after a little while?

Hi Folks, Not sure if this is the right forum, but here goes - sorry if it isn't! The post starts off about a leaky garage, but I really want to know what paint to buy hence the post here :) I have a garage that leaks. Its a sectional concrete garage and the surrounding area is water...

Hi all, I have a detached garage built with single skin breeze/concrete blocks. The driveway slopes down so the garage below the adjacent roadway. When it rains, water seeps through the bricks below the DPM (which is about 700mm from the garage floor). There is a lot of water and results in a...
