^This. Its a townhouse with a tandem garage. The window and door lead to a small backyard.

The tiles have channeling to allow for water to drain out. Luckily, I haven't dropped a washer in between yet but you can easily lift up one tile with a flathead and then snap it back in place after.

It's from a company called Swisstrax. They're interlocking tiles that you just snap in place. There is some cutting required for the edges and bends since every garage isn't a perfect square. The tiles come in a wide variety of colours, so you can design the layout however you like. I went with these over epoxy because of the following:

- Durability. You can replace any tile if you wreck it, vs having to re-epoxy your entire floor to fix it.

- Price. It was about half the price of all the epoxy quotes I received.

- No strata approval required. And if I move again, I can pack up the tiles and use it in the next garage.
