Looks great. Have 2 questions: how much did this cost & how do the tiles stay down at opening of the garage? Seems like there is something missing there - like an edge or a “ramp”.
I did extensive research and then installed Swiss Trax about nine years ago. It looks like it’s been down for a month or less. It’s designed to let the water through and then drain away. It’s made from recycled tires and plastic. It has a load capacity of 50,000/sq foot. Once the garage was empty, it took me about 2 1/2 hours to install.
@@randomdiyguyAlways keep your blade in front of your hand to prevent cutting yourself. We all have bad days, and good work habits will prevent injuries
I have almost exactly the same stuff in my garage for several years now and looks neat and wet mops well. It withstands my heavy goldwing motorcycle being put onto it centre stand almost daily I expected usual surface scratches and general discolouration over time which rather suprisingly for me has not been the case. I have the edging strip in the same material which tapers on one side to cater for run ins so to speak. I adhered only the edging to the floor using a conventional sealer to prevent ingress (water/wind lift) etc.
I used SwissTrax. I live in FLorida. Moisture seepage through the slab is an issue. Swiss Trax is slotted and allows for evaporation. Have it down for about 5 years and looks like the day I put it in. Your epoxy probably peeled due to moisture coming through the slab also.
@@WB1200 Have not done that yet but I don't think it will be an issue. It's durable material. I have several heavy motorcycles and pivot them around using the side stand and no marks or scratches. I have the coin pattern.
Hello @HAUSS81 do you think this product would work well over a garage concrete floor that has cratering and is not perfectly level? My garage floor should probably be resurfaced, but I am thinking I would rather just cover it up with a product like this instead of trying to resurface it and level it out.
The thing I would be concerned about is water that would seep thru. So when we park are vehicles in the winter that are covered with snow and the water on the floor of garage would get under there and just stay wet?
Good question, so depending on how much water it is, a little could get under the tiles, but at the same time the joints allow it to breath and dry out over time!
@Maxumized I'm not too concerned about the concrete. My garage floor is pretty rough and uneven to begin with, hence the choice to put tiles over the bare concrete. I just want something to sit/lay on that is a little more comfortable. I always put down soak up pads or trays when working on a bike or car when fluids are involved. I guess I don't have to worry about it much, then.
It's about $5 a sq foot. Cheaper stull around $3.50, higher end around $6. So my shop, 2K sq foot would cost me about 10K to do. Not even REMOTELY worth it.
They have a narrow tapered strip to transition up to the thickness of the tiles, I think he just cut it from what I got in the video. I would get the strips and push them right to the door and use that as your straight edge and go from there then you will look good without the odd gap there.
Hi! Useful info! I live in Texas. Do you think it can take up 100degrees outside weather? Also 1year into usage, do you find any cons, like bugs or undrained water/mold underneath?
It's been a couple years since this video was made. How are the tiles holding up? I just bought them for my garage. I like that they lay down nicely even though my floor isn't completely flat. There is a little bit a waviness to it. Still, they follow the contour well. I used a heat gun in a couple spots to slightly warm them and that seemed to work perfectly.
Good question... I don't know! This will be my first winter with them (in Ohio so we get all the wet/snow) so I'll do an update in the spring. I can say depending on how much water gets on it, a little could get under the tiles, but at the same time the joints allow it to breath and dry out over time
Can you post a video or what you have for the garage floor trim .. I am planning to put a trim on to my garage floor similar to that around 1 or 1 1/2 feet height
I haven't had any issues with it so far, but they do make an optional tapered edge you could install also. It's all floating... nothing that physically attaches it!
I doubt this would hold up to Minnesota’s subzero weather. Also, if water seeps through those joints and then freezes, you could have a really bad problem on your hands.
So I live in Florida, which means "old Swamp land" in some forgotten language. Slabs here suck up moisture. Put this product down and you are looking at a major mold problem underneath. I used Swiss Trax because they are slotted and air and moisture can circulate- no worries about mold. Durable, easy to do. I have no financial affiliation with Swisstrax.
@@epigeneticnerd4244 Touché as they say in France. But I am not giving up that easy. So tell me why there is black mold that grows on the walls of buildings here in Florida. Stucco walls that is; or in shower stalls that have ceramic tile.
@@MrCabimero because your framing is made of wood and can rot if not protected properly, because the drywall behind the tiles has paper on top. Unless you waterproof your drywall with Schluter etc prior to the tile installation, you'll have mold
How do floor jacks roll on it? When you jack up a car with a floor jack will it dent the product? If left there for a week or more? How about jack stands, will they dent the floor, etc. Thanks!
How has it held up over time? I can imagine that even gentle braking you cars would create enough lateral force to cause it to slide and/or break open joints.
Yeah, the website doesn’t provide any pricing info. You have to ask for an estimate. Which means, to me, that it’s more expensive than I can justify for my garage.
We live in New Hampshire and snow and slush are inevitble. The mess comes off tires and the car itself. Will or seep under the tiles and cause mold etc?
3:18 how long do you have a sharp utility knife after cutting concrete with it? seems a piece of cardboard would be good to avoid breaking off the tip of the utility knife
It can be a bit slick, but the texture does provide some traction. I don't own a motorcycle, so not sure how it would handle with one when wet. Otherwise tires are no problem, however they do leave marks if hot
I'm actually here, because in CA there are ZERO garage flooring companies that warranty for surface cracking when using epoxy. It's silly. Tiles might be my best bet. My only question is how to take care of uneven flooring before laying down tiles. 3:07 - Satisfying moment here. 👏
Never thought about the floor jack concerns. I’m under all our cars a lot and I have to use the floor jack to lift them up to put on jack stands. Is that an issue? Plus, I park my GMC 2500HD diesel exclusively. While you may not have a comparison, I’m wondering how it would hold up with that much weight being parked in the same spot exclusively. Wondering if I’d end up with a compressed area as a result. Looking for a solution like this. Thanks in advance!
I was looking for this comment because I do plan to use a jack and work on my car. I believe this won't work because my brother -in-law has something like this for his garage, and we one of those plastic car ramp sets. We tried driving up the ramps, then backed away, and there were creases where the ramps hit the flooring. So I'd assume a jack would do worse.
Thanks for this. I was looking at my shop floor this morning and not very happy with it's condition. I think I'll do the shop bathroom floor with it too!
After living with it a few months, I would say its about as slippery as the epoxy floor coating we had before it. The tiles can be a bit slick when wet, but the pattern does give a little more traction. Also cleans up very easily.
How does the flooring material hold up to vehicle jacking or jack stands, i.e., will the hydraulic jack or jack stands pierce through the material. Also, what happens if you have a vehicle fluid leak, water, oil, or gas. Will the fluid seep past the floor material joints and pool between it and the underlying concrete floor?
I almost did this type of floor. I went and saw a completed floor and as i was walking on it all i could hear was "clack", "clack", "clack". I thought the noise would drive me bonkers so i am opting for epoxy. It also would not be fun mopping a 540sq ft garage.
We had this tile at our warehouse and it was durable but absolutely horrible to clean. 184ish dots per tile and you have a nightmare to clean between them . . . Good luck with it!
Thanks! I did not compare the price with other brands, but it costs around $2.69 per square foot. Right after I first installed it, the sun hit it in the afternoon and I did have a small amount of buckling from the heat, but I adjusted my expansion gap (just didn't cut enough off) and now I haven't had any problems!
I’ve had a very similar product down for about five years. I have lots of heavy woodworking tools and cabinets around the perimeter. Some on wheels & some not. I left a 1/2” expansion gap around the walls and installed a transition strip across the garage door opening. Overall, I love the floor.. looks great, holds up extremely well, no problem with liquids getting underneath, no problems at all with dents from the tool rollers (I purchased a smooth but textured surface just for this reason), no problems with it being slick when wet due to the texture, I do have a few stains which won’t come up but it cleans easily. I bought several extra tiles in anticipation of damage so I could replace them if needed but I haven’t used a one of them. Here is my BIG problem…. I often leave the garage door up when I am doing woodwork a the sun shines on that portion of the floor. In the summer it buckled up about 4” on either side because the weight of the cabinets and other equipment will not allow for expansion. It used to lay back down in the winter but now it is permanently buckled! I am considering cutting a relief around the inner perimeter to allow for expansion but this will allow water seepage and I’m not real sure it will lay down again. Something to consider.
Thanks for sharing, although Ive actually been really impressed with how easy Supratiles are to clean. I've mopped them several times and they've cleaned up great!
I have a similar product installed in my garage. Going to remove it. The garage is not attached and the temp changes are too great. The floor is constantly buckling.
You could reach out to them and depending on where your at they might have someone they could recommend, but unfortunately to my knowledge they themselves do not offer a service. Sorry!
Things not answered: WHAT DOES IT COST?? Is it oil and gas resistant? Is it resistant against spills (draining between the joints) will they warp in the sun? warranty?
I purchased boxes of tiles at Sears that look like the ones you used. They cost me almost $1000 for my two-car garage. The tiles connected to each other like the ones you showed using Tabs and Slots. After I had joined about ten tiles, a bubble formed, and the tiles would not lie flat. I noticed the tabs and slots on the perimeter of the tiles contained excess material left over from the manufacturing process. This is called Flash and prevents the tabs and slots from properly joining. I needed to remove the Flash from the tabs and slots to get the tiles to correctly mate and lay flat. Doing this was a tedious and time-consuming process. I suggest buying only a few boxes of this product and seeing if you have the same result as I have experienced.
Good question, the tiles don't necessarily need a level surface underneath, but they do need it to be relatively flat. My garage slopes towards the drain in the center and it has no problem adapting to the slope. Depending on your situation, their website has more info on whether it would work in your scenario. Hope this helps!
I didn't hear you mention how much it is per square foot which is maybe the most important piece of info you could share. So could you provide that please? Apologies if you mentioned it and i missed it. The manufacturer doesn't provide the cost unless you provide bunch of personal info.

Just a hint as an old tile layer. Knee pads and put a piece of wood underneath your cutting area to keep the blade from dulling 😊
Looks great. Have 2 questions: how much did this cost & how do the tiles stay down at opening of the garage? Seems like there is something missing there - like an edge or a “ramp”.

What if is oil? Fuel? I would be more concerned about these. The water can be solved with a blower. Chemicals are a different animal.
I don't even want to imagine the amount of different fluids and water that will seep in between and under all the tiles.

Same thing happened to the epoxy treatment I did years ago. Was hoping this tile would prevent that...maybe not.
Things not answered:
WHAT DOES IT COST??
Is it oil and gas resistant?
Is it resistant against spills (draining between the joints)
will they warp in the sun?
warranty?
over 1thousand for about 480 square feet I have seen. Also someone said amazon has a limit on how many you can get.
How do these stand up to snowmobile use?
Snowmobile users have the internet...huh!
How well does it hold up with cars and turning their wheels on it?
I've had no issues so far, the joints are very strong!
I purchased boxes of tiles at Sears that look like the ones you used. They cost me almost $1000 for my two-car garage. The tiles connected to each other like the ones you showed using Tabs and Slots. After I had joined about ten tiles, a bubble formed, and the tiles would not lie flat. I noticed the tabs and slots on the perimeter of the tiles contained excess material left over from the manufacturing process. This is called Flash and prevents the tabs and slots from properly joining. I needed to remove the Flash from the tabs and slots to get the tiles to correctly mate and lay flat. Doing this was a tedious and time-consuming process. I suggest buying only a few boxes of this product and seeing if you have the same result as I have experienced.
I have a few questions would this work for my laundryroom,my grauge floor is not that level will it still work good.
Good question, the tiles don't necessarily need a level surface underneath, but they do need it to be relatively flat. My garage slopes towards the drain in the center and it has no problem adapting to the slope. Depending on your situation, their website has more info on whether it would work in your scenario. Hope this helps!
How is this on bare feet? Does it hurt to walk on barefoot?
Feels smooth to the touch. The round coin texture is flat so you can totally walk on it bare foot 👍
What is warranty on this ? How it compares to swisstrax ?
I didn't hear you mention how much it is per square foot which is maybe the most important piece of info you could share.
So could you provide that please?
Apologies if you mentioned it and i missed it.
The manufacturer doesn't provide the cost unless you provide bunch of personal info.
$3 per square foot from his other comment-
Wouldn't it be a little better to have staggered the rows?
Hey, good question. This product (Supratile) isn't actually designed to be staggered. The joints are made so they can't
How much was the total for your garage when you installed it?
Why PVC instead of rubber tiles, which I’ve seen other woodworkers use?
How do you like this now?
What happens when you spill liquids on it? Does it seep through the joints and create problems between the tile and the floor?
fair question, if you spill it right on the joint a little could get under the tile, but at the same time, it also allows it to dry out also!
Is there a way to remove the tiles from a spilled area clean and reinstall?
