Clients Garage Needs:
Clients garage located in the heart of Toronto was a space that solely housed their car. Their desire was to not only find function but aesthetics was also very important to them.
Garage Upgrades:
Flooring: The existing floor was a 30 year old concrete floor with a lot of pitting and cracks. We decided that a new floor coating was the first must have for the client to achieve their goal in cleaning up their garage. Our polyaspartic coating allowed us to take what looked like an unrepairable floor and make it something that looked like it was just poured.
Wall Organization: The walls of our clients garage were covered in drywall and the weather and yearly washings had taken it toll on the drywall and completely deteriorated it to the point that the bottom 6″ had completely given way. We removed the existing drywall up to 7′ and replaced it with our slatwall. This solution not only eliminated the old drywall that had seen its better days but it now also allowed the client to not have to worry when they washed their garage down after our messy Canadian winters. The client decided to go with a slate grey with a band of graphite slatwall combination to add some extra detail to their space.
Cabinets: Given that our client didn’t house too many items in their garage a simple solution of 2 overhead cabinets worked well to suit their needs without adding significant costs to their budget.
Overhead Storage: Given that the height of this garage was 12′ high we were able to build overhead storage units at the front and back of the garage to house many of their larger items such as lawn and patio furniture as well as miscellaneous items such as Christmas decorations and sporting equipment.
Painting: Client decided to go with the graphite colour matching paint for the area above the slatwall as well as the overhead storage and garage doors.
