The garage floor has three problems. It's not level (about 1/2" height difference from one side to the other), it generates a lot of dust, and it lets damp through. I know that the floor was badly laid (not by me) - but it's done, so just looking for a solution now, hopefully avoiding tearing...

I came across a product named Spartacote when reading the following Instructables page, and was wondering if anyone knew if it was available in the UK. They call it a floor coating. How is that different to concrete floor paint? http://www.instructables.com/id/10-Maker-Garage-Improvement-Ideas/

A small tin of grey garage floor paint?

I'm still scraping up the 6 layers of paint from the external perimeter walls. Should I just remove what comes off with scraper, and paint it with a garage floor paint?; I just saw some for £27 on Ebay for 20ltrs, in cream. Any suggestions much appreciated...as the sunny wheather wont...

I have a new sand & cement screed in a utility area (neither living nor garage floor) which I want to paint. It is a bit dusty, has\some loose bits and a couple of fine cracks where there are pipes underneath. I think the pipes managed to separate the screed on either side of them. What are...

the same people that paint roof tiles paint their car tyres and their garage floors. waste of time.

Hi. Im after some advice and options please. I have acquired a sectional Marley prefab garage, not yet erected, which I want to place on a hard standing next to my current garage. I want to use it as a studio for painting/storing canvases and upcycling furniture so needs to be damp proof to...

My garage had been built directly on concrete and has developed seepage between wall and floor. I'm wanting to put a concrete fillet along the wall and I was thinking of painting with bitumen first. Could I then lay the concrete fillet on top ?

Hi Raising garage floor and need some better informed views; DPM on floor (either 1200 gauge sheet or painted on stuff), 100mm Celotex then do I lay concrete, then screed or just straight screed? How thick can Screed be laid - I think I will need (after the celotex) to raise the floor...

:P I have a concrete floor in my utility room. It has been painted with garage type floor paint. Now I want to try and cover it with floor tiles. 1. Will I have to burn off the paint before I tile the floor or can I leave it on?. 2. because I have a solid base is there any special...

Just don't get them to paint the garage floor.

Lived in my Bungalow for 27 years, built in 1969 according to Deeds, Always have faint musty smell to carpets around most floor edges of the house. Never any water noticed. When we moved in 27 years ago some of the thermal tiles were lifting from the bitumen, particularly around the edges. We...

I painted my garage ( attached to house and dry) with white emulsion. It soaks up a ton first, so a bit watered down and a couple of coats. I painted my floor with garage paint so did the walls and wasn't worried about the odd drop. The first few bricks on the wall were also painted with floor...

I have a 1960s single skin double garage that was detached but is now adjoined by a house extension. I need to turn it into a workshop so I can build an aeroplane in it. (wife thinks I am off my head). The garage is always damp in winter and smells of old cellar but needs to be dry and warm...

I have a detached garage, made from single skin block work which is rendered on the outside. There is a water tight corregated tin roof fitted over the top of wooden beams and half inch ply, with guttering all round. The walls have a DPC at floor level. Although there's no obvious damp in...

You might get the existing paint off with a pressure washer. As to new paint, maybe garage floor paint would do the trick?

Who the hell paints or lays asphalt on the floor in a garage conversion?

I have read the standard replies on floor screeds at the top of this forum but unfortunately they don't cover what I need to know. My concrete garage floor was obviously badly laid with a weak mix. Parts of it eventually became dusty. No amount of sealing with either dilute PVA or flooring...

I've recently renewed the roof on an alleyway between my house and garage. The alley way naturally sits in a bit of a dip on my property with the house and garage either side of it slightly elevated. The old roof leaked like a sieve, but now it's repaired I can see a lot of the wet on the...

My garage is built on a concrete slab that extends about 300mm beyond the up and over doors. This joins to an asphalt/tarmac(not sure of the difference) drive. The asphalt has crumbled a bit leaving a 8-10mm gap. What could I use to weather seal this gap bearing in mind it has cars driven over...
