Before & After: Transform Your Garage in One Day (Full Plan)

Tylex Designs

Prep first

  • Measure precisely: length/width, door openings, obstructions, cabinets.

  • Choose surfaces: Vented for wet/snow-exposed areas; Solid/3D for dry work zones.

  • Lighting plan: pick Hex 14/15/PRO based on area and ceiling height.

  • Order list: tiles (≈ 6.25/m²) + 5–10% overage, edges/ramps, LED kit, optional suspension.

The one-day timeline (example)

  1. Prep (30 min): sweep, vacuum; dry floor.

  2. Dry-fit (45 min): snap a 3×3 m core; confirm pattern and orientation.

  3. Cuts & edging (60–90 min): cut from tile underside; install ramps at doors.

  4. Hex install (90–120 min): tape layout, mount rails/clips, connect power.

  5. Finish (20 min): tidy cables, test, take your “after” photos.

Pro tips

  • Leave a small expansion gap at walls.

  • Flush mount for low ceilings; suspension at 3 m+.

  • Label underside of tiles/rails by zone to make future changes easy.

Maintenance

  • Vented: blow out or vacuum channels.

  • Solid: mop; avoid harsh abrasives.

  • LEDs: visual connector check 1–2×/year.

FAQs

  • Can I use the space immediately? Yes—no glue or cure time.

  • Noise underfoot? Rigid PP is firmer; add mats in ultra-quiet zones if desired.

  • Drains and slopes? Use a cardboard template for precise cuts; maintain flow paths.
