Default SwissTrax Garage floor installed in time for new C7

I got our SwissTrax garage flooring installed just before taking delivery of our new C7 last week. Had a break in the weather so the garage got up to a whopping 50 degrees and I could paint the foundation and install the SwissTrax. REALLY happy with their product and especially their customer service during the decision/ ordering process and afterwards as I needed to add a couple more pieces of tile, which they sent me no charge. Only wish I had done this sooner.

It's a 2 car garage, 440 Ft sq and I had 20 ft of edging (ramp entry). Total with Garage Journal discount, delivered was about $1600. If you have interest, PM me and I'll give you some more specifics and who to contact there to get the discount.

That looks awesome, great job! I think I said this before, I get more comments and questions about the flooring than I do my ride. Your dog looks confused by the massive upgrade.

That looks great, love the color combo with your ride. I've had my SwissTrax for 2 years now and can't imagine having a garage without it.

I have been looking at this stuff for a while. We are in the process of trying to add another garage to my 2 car I have now. When Its built I will definitely give these guys a call again. They sent me samples at no charge and were really helpful. My only concern is how well my motorcycle will roll over this stuff. The casters are small so the ribbing might be an issue. I have not tried it on my floor samples but its on the list. I would like to know about the discount though and how to get it.
Thanks
By the way floor looks great!!!

Thank you....... it was in part one of your earlier replies to my questions on garage flooring a month or so ago that got me looking at SwissTrax. REALLY love the product.

Thanks Strake!! I'm glad it worked out for you. I feel the same way about my flooring too. And I get as many comments about the flooring as I do with the C7.

Join the Garage Journal forum, then let the SwissTrax dealer know you're a member to get the discount. I don't know what size your casters are, but everything I've rolled across the flooring rolls easily, so I don't think you'll have an issue.

Does your floor jack work with the ribs and do they come in different colors?

Thanks..

I don't have a floor jack, so I can't say how that works.

Yes, they have a number of tile colors to choose from. If you go to the SwissTrax website, they have a calculator tool that helps you determine how many tiles (for each color you use) you need for your project and let's you see what your finished design will look like.

I see you got your car at Kerbeck, I'm getting mine shortly from them as well. Did you have to tell them no dealer emblems on the car or did they just not put them?
