So, I've seen this problem posted a few places but have yet to find an easy and inexpensive stop-gap solution.
I have a 2-car garage. My garage floor is just a concrete slab (no drain). In theory, it should angle slightly towards the front and center, but it is imperfect and when snow and ice falls off the car, what happens is from some places it moves toward the garage door or stays where it is (both fine), but from other places it moves toward the back or sides of the garage.
I'm perfectly happy to take a broom or squeegee when necessary and push the water out the front. But because of lack of storage space elsewhere in the hose (no attic, tiny basement), I tend to store a lot of stuff in the garage. I have a various shelving units both in the back and sides of my garage. I've raised these wooden units up off the floor with bricks, but water will pool underneath these things and I can not easily get it out. Not to mention that some stuff is just on the floor.
For the past few years, I've been using these vinyl car-pads
It would be nice to make a shallow (1-2") berm around the area where the cars are parked. Then the water wouldn't get to my storage area, and I could just push it out when necessary. This product looks like it could do the trick
Any tips on how to resolve this problem quickly, easily and inexpensively?
Thanks.
