    Much better than I thought it would be. I’d read some reviews of flooring tiles, and they weren’t great at all. I’ve got two strips of carpet tiles for the tyre runs, with a sealed & painted floor. These carpet tiles have been in for 5 years, and lasted really well. If you are going to use contact adhesive, you MUST seal the concrete floor first, as the dusty surface won’t allow the adhesive to stick, and they will come up again

      Good point on sealing the floor! But yes, these aren’t bad really for the money!

    I’ve just done a double garage that had old carpet and it’s obviously much nicer. The cost made it a no brainer, £200 compared to £1k the more expensive stuff. I do have the buckling issue though and will probably try adhesive. Failing that horse mats are supposed to be good. You get what you pay for…..

    Having seen this in going to get it done for mine! The cold floor is a magnet for condensation in the winter so anything that will insulate the floor will help keep the moisture away from the underside of the car

    • @CarFocused
      @CarFocused  3 года назад

      It will definitely help with that. For the money you couldn’t really ask for more!

    • @ellyfernandes4921

      After laying these tiles is there water collected under the tiles due to condensation and does it get mouldy? Sorry if it's a silly question but I am rubbish at this and I want to put a rubber or a foam click tile floor for my boys to have a little gym area in my garage. Thank you 🙏

    Just thinking, is it possible to link the tiles like a brick bond I.e staggered rather than side by side as maybe that would be less likely for some to bow? The jacking of a car as you point out could be problematic, so I’ll stick with my painted floor and moveable rubber mat to avoid the cold floor when working on the car 🤔

    They’re currently doing 2 packs for £18 so I’ve picked up 4 packs (24 tiles) of these, was initially £36 but with the free Halfords membership discount and the current 10% off promo code, got the price down to £27.40. Works out £6.85 per pack… bargain!

    4:40 Done properly that wont happen. Also, this can be caused by human error... Such as tapping those brakes a bit too hard coming to a stop, all it takes is a tiny bit of umph and then your cars weight shifts forward as it stops, pushing the flooring as you see here. Same with installing carpet.. Until its completely installed, you can "skid" your shoe or "kick" the floor a bit and make the entire piece of flooring to shift along the pad.

      Hopefully the weight of the hot tub won’t ruin them - but even if it does you haven’t spent much money. They will certainly be fine for around the edge of the tub.
