Try New Flooring
The first major upgrade is installing new flooring. The typical choice is an epoxy floor. Not only can you make your garage floor look cooler, but epoxy is much more durable than plain concrete. It’s impact, heat, and fire resistant and can last up to 20 years. It’s also easy to clean and resistant to chemicals and stains, making it ideal if you love working on your car but don’t don’t love oil stains on your floor. It’s also relatively simple to do this upgrade as long as you take your time with the prep work.
Store Your Tools Securely and Conveniently
Tool storage is another upgrade that is fairly easy to implement and will pay dividends. From a rolling toolbox to a cabinet system that spans your entire wall, being able to store your tools and know exactly where they are is invaluable. It’s also an important step if you’re building a workshop in your garage, as you’ll need your tools organized and stored where you can easily find them.
Implement Even More Storage
If you have more than just tools to store, you can get other storage solutions, as well. Shelving is a classic way to get your stuff off the floor. If you don’t have a ton of floor space, consider looking up. You can build overhead storage areas near the ceiling, utilizing what would otherwise be empty space. This is a great option for seasonal items you only need once or twice per year.
