How do you make a custom garage floor?
With interlocking floor tiles in two or more colours. Lay them in a checkerboard, add a border stripe or run racing stripes the length of the bay. Detail Garage tiles come in 14 colours at R76 each, the same price whatever the colour, so a custom design costs no more than a plain floor.

Garage floor design ideas
Checkerboard
The classic custom garage floor. Black and white is the race-shop look; black and red or dark grey and light grey are bolder or more subtle takes on the same idea. Two colours, alternated tile by tile.
Border stripe
One main colour with a contrasting band around the edge, such as dark grey with a red border or black with yellow. It frames the car and makes a single garage feel deliberate rather than plain.
Racing stripes
Two parallel stripes running the length of the bay, lined up with where the car parks. Lay the stripe rows in an accent colour as you go; no cutting is needed because each stripe is a whole row of tiles.
Parking bay or work zone
Mark out a parking box, a detailing area or a workbench zone in a second colour. Useful in a double garage where one side is for the car and the other is for working.
Solid colour
A single colour, edge to edge. Dark grey and black hide tyre marks best; light grey and white make a small garage look bigger and brighter under hexagon lights.
Choosing colours that work
- Hide tyre marks: black and dark grey are the most forgiving for a daily driver.
- Brighten a small garage: light grey or white, especially under hexagon LED lights.
- Match the car or the brand: red, orange, yellow, blue and green work best as stripes or borders.
- Finish the edges: edge ramps and corners come in six colours, so the border can run right to the driveway.
All 14 colours: black, dark grey, light grey, white, red, orange, yellow, gold, pink, purple, green, teal, dark blue and light blue. See them all on the garage floor tiles page.
From design to floor
Measure the floor, build the pattern in the designer above, and send it to us with your measurements. We will confirm the tile count for each colour. Then it is a one-afternoon job: the tiles click together over your existing concrete. See theinstall guide, and the price guide for what a single or double garage costs.

QUESTIONS
Can I design my own garage floor?
Yes. The floor designer on this page lets you choose a checkerboard, border stripe or solid layout in any of the 14 tile colours and see it immediately. Send us the design with your garage measurements and we will count the tiles.
What colours do the garage floor tiles come in?
Fourteen: black, dark grey, light grey, white, red, orange, yellow, gold, pink, purple, green, teal, dark blue and light blue. Every colour is the same price, R76 a tile, so a custom design costs the same as a plain floor.
Does a checkerboard garage floor cost more?
No. Every tile is the same price whatever the colour, so a checkerboard, border or stripe layout costs exactly the same as a single-colour floor of the same size.
Can I change the design later?
Yes. The tiles unclip, so you can add a border, swap colours or move a stripe later without replacing the floor.
