Retired and moved out of the city to Cobourg. ALWAYS wanted a 'garage'. Shopped around a lot. I found most garage companies to be pretty good but I was disappointed in the available product range. The first time I walked into Garage Living and met Aaron I knew I had found the right company. Many, many different choices of floors, cabinets, racks, etc. During our home inspection of the house Aaron showed up promptly and made detailed drawings and measurements of the garage. We met with him at the store and selected all the products. Shortly after that he emailed us the CAD program drawings showing us the proposed layout. Over time we made a few changes and settled on a price. We needed a firm comitment from him for an install date as we had our furniture stored for 3 days after possession to have this work and hardwood flooring done.. The crew showed up promptly on day 1. They spent 3 hours with 3 different machines diamond grinding the garage floor and 10" sidewalls. It's all in the prep work. They then applied the tinted polyaspartic adhesive followed by lots of grey, black and white pvc chips (many colors available) followed by the thick, clear polyaspartic top coat. The outside of the house is 'earth tones' so Aaron suggested doing the lip outside the garage door taupe with some silicon sand to prevent slipping. The finished product looked awesome. Day 2. Dark grey (our choice) full locker, upper and lower cabinets installed with a butcher block countertop and polished tread plate backsplash. The cabinets were all securely bolted to the wall and leveled. The grey (our choice) wall storage treatment was then installed together with our choice of hanging accessories. Two tire storage racks were installed followed by the 4x8 overhead storage rack above the garage door. The best hose reel I've ever seen was then installed. The final item was 2 48" sealed 2 lamp fluorescent light fixtures. Prior to doing the floor they boxed in the sides and the risers of the stairs into the house so they could be coated. They moved the central vac to accommodate the cabinets. They also helped me to install a central vac outlet at the front of the garage for the cars (and the floor!) that was not in the contract. After they left I discovered a small scratch on one of the lower cabinet drawers. They returned the next day, 130 km each way, and replaced the drawer. The entire process was very professional from start to finish. Zero issues. Zero regrets. Many options for different budgets. Our interior decorator was so impressed she asked for Aarons contact information and borrowed the multi-page brochure to show her clients. I would highly recommend this company to anyone.
