Everytime it rains, water trickles from 3 distinct areas in the garage and congregates to the right in a massive puddle (takes up to 9 buckets to get rid of the water). Any Ideas? I can't attach any photos whilst registering this new post as the site wont allow me to post if I add any but I can do that for anyone who needs to see it.
Garage floods when it rains

Too little information. Concrete floor? Is the water coming up through the floor or coming in from outside, like near an outside wall? Drainage in the area? Gutters properly working, water from them directed 6 ft or more away from the building? Earth graded away from the building so water runs off? Go outside in a heavy rain and make sure that water is really going where you think it's going.
I have an idea. How about a good description. Does the water come in from the roof? The walls? The foundation? Is part of the garage below grade?
You can post photos and give a link to the site, like postimage.org
I'm glad you specified that it puddles on the right - .. if it was on the left, it would form a sparkling clean pool. John T.
