Re: Waterlogged Garage
We never put the car in the UK garage, it was a utility/store room, not to mention where the treadmill ( I mean close horse
) lived....no room for car there!!!
Most of my neighbours here seem to garage their cars.
I would love to have a triple garage though.....can never have too much storage room!!!

Re: Waterlogged Garage
Perhaps snorkmaiden like myself is one of the few people left in the world who believe that a garage is for cars.
Other stuff can be stored in there but not at the expense of its prime purpose.
Call me old fashioned but I didn't buy a house with a garage so I could park my vehicles on the street.

A man who thinks just like my hubby, which is why my basement has been stuffed full of assorted garden furniture - good job we don't use the basement as the main family room!

Re: Waterlogged Garage
Well I thought I had given away, sold or binned just about all our worldly possessions, but we still had 130 items shipped across.

Re: Waterlogged Garage
O.k once you have the garage floor clean, find an old carpet, lay it down and leave it there till spring, toss it, and get another old carpet for next year.

during the summer our garage is full of "essential" goods.... (2 motorbikes,5 mountain bikes, lawnmower, paint pots, etc etc etc - Mrs A has to limbo to get to the washing machine )
Come the first frost and a car sized space appears in the centre for Mrs A's car (I spoil her
) .
