We often talk about a “complete garage makeover” and how we can transform your garage into a brighter, more usable space. But what does it actually mean to have a garage makeover?
Some customers get in touch to ask if we do painting, structural work, plastering or asbestos removal which are not areas that we cover. We actually like to think of ourselves as interior designers for your residential garage, focusing on the inside and turning the dark and dusty space into a clean, modern and bespoke space that’s just right for you. With this in mind, let’s take a look at the different elements that make up our interpretation of a “complete garage makeover” and what each of them includes.
Garage Walls
Depending on the current state of your garage wall you can choose three different options to get the right one for your garage wall to get your garage makeover started in the best way possible.
FlexiPanel covers the entire length of your garage wall from ceiling to floor and its glossy, reflective surface increases light around the garage making it a brighter place to spend time. It gives you a degree of insulation and provides maximum flexibility as our storage hooks, shelves, racks and baskets can all be hooked on and then moved around as and when you want to, simply by slotting into the panel.
FlexiSmooth also covers the entire length of the wall from floor to ceiling. It is glossy and has a reflective surface to make the space light and bright. The significant difference from FlexiPanel is that FlexiSmooth does not allow for any storage accessories to be attached to it. It is purely for a decorative finish so that the dusty brick or blockwork is hidden.
It is a more cost effective finish than FlexiPanel and can make a significant reduction in the overall price.
FlexiTrack are small, singular strips of our FlexiPanel that can be fixed to your garage wall to accommodate many of our storage accessories including baskets and shelves. Unlike FlexiPanel, these strips don’t cover the entire wall but rather a small section. So they are a great solution if you only have a small space to fill and they can be cut to fit the size you have.
Garage Ceiling
Now you have chosen the right style of garage walls for you, the next part of the complete garage makeover puzzle is the garage ceiling. Most garages have open beams which are a haven for spiders and other bugs but with us, you can choose to have your whole ceiling panelled to eliminate draughts and bugs from the space. In addition we have a selection of storage accessories created just for the ceiling and are able to install loft hatches with ladders as well. Giving yourself this extra storage above, will allow your garage makeover to be as decluttered as possible, it’s the perfect location to store those Christmas decorations for 11 months of the year really.
Garage Flooring
Whether you want to park your car in your garage, use it for DIY or just for storage, we think every garage deserves a floor that provides a safe environment for all the family, yet looks great too. We have two options when it comes to the garage floor, either our premium range of interlocking floor tiles or our beautifully seamless resin floor coatings. Both offer a robust finish to your garage, come with a 10 year warranty and create the finishing touch to your complete garage makeover.
Installing a Resin Floor in your garage gives a beautifully seamless finish that looks fantastic. Our Methacrylate MMA coating is specially designed for the residential garage and provides the highest quality finish you can buy. It also comes with a 10 year warranty.
Our premium range of interlocking floor tiles are an ideal solution for any garage floor. They are a hard wearing solution, come in a variety of colours and have a 10 year warranty.
Garage Doors
Now for the final part of your full garage makeover, the doors. There are many reasons our customers decide to get a new garage door fitted, ranging from wanting to stop draughts and leaves to replacing two doors with one so they can finally get their car in the garage. Complete your garage makeover with our range of Roller Shutter or Sectional garage doors and give your property kerb appeal.
To complete your garage makeover, we suggest installing a range of our storage accessories to create a truly bespoke space in your home.
