Fun Garage Ideas

Decided it was time for a garage makeover and I love DYI projects. I put in cabinets and tiled the floor a few years ago.

Wish list:

1: Add 4 post lift - Went with a Challenger 9000lb tall lift
2. Modifiy garage door to a high lift.
3. Create massive attic storage.
4. Add faucet for mop bucket.
5. Run hot water to front of garage for car detailing.
6. Repaint garage.
7. Diamond plate around garage.
8. Create car detailing station.
9 Add butcher block work bench.
10. Hide fridge, freezer and hot water heater.
11. Add nice art and lighting.

Here are some picture to show the remodel progress.

The tiles I picked up on eBay. This is what they look like after 8 years of use and abuse. They are commercial grade 2'x 2' porcelain tiles. Not slippery unless very wet with no tread shoes.
