Water On Garage Floor In Winter

It s time to redo your garage floor but you live up north and you are very concerned about all the ice melt magnesium chloride and other chemicals they use on the roads in the winter.

Water on garage floor in winter.

I have water on my garage floor all the time in the winter. When the snow melts off of your car onto the floor simply crack your garage door open and squeegee the water right back outside. You may not see it on the sides of the car but it s under the body and in the wheel wells. It s caused by small amounts of snow and slush that melt once you pull the car into the garage.

Invest in garage mats. Winter s harsh conditions can end up taking a serious toll on garage floors considering they are almost always made of exposed concrete. Water also puddles under my car when you pull it into the garage if it s raining outdoors. Free flow s patented design is a self draining open rib and fully channeled understructure which allows for drainage and air circulation.

A squeegee can be a simple and inexpensive fix to keeping snow melt out of your garage. Deicing fluids and road salts that get rolled in from the roads on your vehicle s tires and undercarriage and end up damaging the floor forming salt stains that are almost impossible to remove and making your garage floor slippery and unsafe. Racedeck has created a garage flooring called free flow engineered specifically for harsh winter garage and other wet environments.
