Garage workshop with lift stands on a floor of dark gray, glued-down PVC tiles

Use Cases

Commercial garage: 300 m² of adhesive-backed tiles installed by the customer

  • Client: Professional Auto Repair Shop
  • Industry: Auto Repair Shop
  • Area: 300 m²
  • Location: France
  • Completion date: November 2021
  • Service: Tiles supplied by MOSAIK-FLOOR; installation and adhesive application performed by the customer
  • Starting surface: Old , heavily damaged, and stained floor

Constraints

  • Floor is badly damaged and stained with oil
  • Lift Stands and Wheel Alignment Rigs
  • Vehicles weighing more than 1.5 metric tons are prohibited

Solution

  • ULTIMA Tiles with Invisible Grout, PURE, Dark Gray
  • Bonding all the tiles together
  • MOSAIK-FLOOR supplied; installation by the customer

In brief: A professional auto repair shop renovated 300 m² of workshop space in November 2021 using dark gray ULTIMA JOINTS INVISIBLES PURE tiles supplied by MOSAIK-FLOOR. The customer installed and glued the tiles himself onto a severely damaged floor; gluing is a prerequisite for vehicles weighing more than 1.5 metric tons to drive over the surface.

After: ULTIMA PURE dark gray tiles with invisible joints, installed in a professional garage
Before: Damaged and stained commercial garage floor between the lift platforms

The Initial Need

This professional auto repair shop had a severely damaged floor: the old flooring was peeling and stained with oil, with areas of tile and exposed concrete between the lifts. The floor was difficult to clean and did not present a good image for either the shop or its customers.

The Selected Solution

The garage chose 300 m² of ULTIMA JOINTS INVISIBLES tiles in the dark gray PURE finish, supplied by MOSAIK-FLOOR and installed by the customer in November 2021. The tiles were glued down across the entire surface: for a garage that accommodates vehicles weighing more than 1.5 metric tons, gluing down the ULTIMA JOINTS INVISIBLES tiles is a prerequisite. The result is a uniform gray floor with virtually invisible joints around the bridges and geometric platforms.

Frequently Asked Questions About This Construction Project

Can a mechanic install PVC tiles on his own?

Yes: For this commercial garage, MOSAIK-FLOOR supplied 300 m² of ULTIMA JOINTS INVISIBLES tiles, and the customer installed and adhered them himself.

Should ULTIMA JOINTS INVISIBLES tiles be installed in a garage?

Yes, as soon as the garage begins accepting vehicles weighing more than 1.5 metric tons: when installed using clips, this slab has a weight limit of 1.5 metric tons, so adhesive installation is a prerequisite for a professional garage.

How many tiles are needed for 300 m²?

Approximately 1,460 ULTIMA JOINTS INVISIBLES tiles measuring 45.3 x 45.3 cm, plus offcuts.
