Rigid garage tiles or hard plastic garage floor tiles are more stain and chemical resistant than their PVC counterpart and they do not trap moisture underneath. Noise issues can be averted with simple landscape fabric. While they do not prevent moisture from reaching the concrete, they do allow moisture that reaches the concrete to exit the system.

Garage floor tiles are one of our favorite garage flooring products. They are an outstanding option for covering almost any garage floor. They feature ridiculously easy installation, incredible warranties, multiple patterns, styles, colors, and even base materials.
There is a wide selection of American Made brands like TrueLock, RaceDeck, and Swisstrax and there are also companies like Garage Flooring Inc that choose to knock off American Made products and have them made in Asia. It is not a bad thing it is just not how we choose to do business.
We would also offer one warning. In addition to a lot of knockoffs, there are two companies in specific that have been trying to create false urgency with 28% Off to 35% off banners. They advertise that these discounts are limited in nature but the truth is every time we check they have a similar promotion. It is easy to inflate garage floor tile pricing to make it look like you are offering a huge discount. They also often charge different prices for different colors and send out tiny samples that make it impossible to determine the quality of the product.
Most garage floor tiles are fine for diy installation. You can create attractive patterns, cover your stained concrete floors, and create a custom design all in just a few hours.
Let’s start with rigid plastic interlocking garage floor tiles. The TrueLock HDXT Diamond tile is hands down the best-looking garage floor tile on the market. Diamond tiles are a customer and employee favorite. It is manufactured for Garage Flooring LLC of Colorado out of a facility in Salt Lake utilizing their time-tested, patented interlocking system combined with Garage Flooring’s design. To be fair we also love the Flowthrough tile, especially in dirty or wet environments. It compares very nicely to the RaceDeck Free Flow, which offers a similar appearance but a longer warranty at a slightly higher price.
Best garage floor tiles for the working garage? If you are ‘that guy or gal’. You have the four-post lift, three hydraulic jacks, the Snap-On tool kit that makes the local mechanic shop drool, and enough cleaning products to make your local detailer jealous, you are going to need a tile with a little more meat on its bones. For the 5-10% if you that truly work in the garage, RaceDeck® Diamond tiles are second to none.
PVC garage floor tiles. To be clear, they are not our favorite for the garage but are outstanding for high-impact industrial environments. They stain from tires but otherwise are insanely durable. They are softer and more watertight than rigid garage floor tiles. If you are looking for tough and have time to wait, TrueLock PVC is your answer. If you are looking for a fun, comfortable PVC tile that also promotes drainage and is fine for a home gym, NORSK Tile is the exception to the stay away from imported tiles rule.
Rubber garage floor tiles are for gym floors, not garage floors. Rubber tiles absorb automotive fluid, degrade in the garage, and offer 0 benefits.
In a word. NO. If you don’t believe me, give Armstrong a call.VCT tiles are amazing for certain industrial and commercial applications. They require constant maintenance and are not approved for garage applications. The vinyl tiles line is not something we will be adding soon
GarageTrac tiles are comparable to the original TrueLock HD tiles and they have a great product offering.
Porcelain tile is not a product we offer but many have found them to be an incredible, durable flooring and possibly one of the best alternative flooring options out there. Jack Olsen‘s floor has been featured in many forums and articles and has held up very well.
Generally speaking, Porcelain tile takes more preparation, and more work and is way more expensive, but just like good garage floor coatings, it will be well worth it in the long run.
TrueLock makes an outstanding 6-lock tile that is a great budget tile. It is still made in the USA and compares very well to Swisstrax Hometrax. Unlike HDXT tiles they are sold by the pack, not by the square foot. They are quality hard plastic tiles that are a great affordable option for the garage space and much more attractive than a bare concrete garage floor.
Residential garages will do just fine with TrueLock 6-lock Diamond tiles. We have one customer who even recorded a video of welding and using car jacks with them. They clean up with a damp mop, are easier to install than epoxy coatings, and are much more comfortable than cold concrete.
For the average garage, they are easy to install, feature a diamond pattern, and are perfect for car parking. No rubber mallet is required for installation. Just remember you can’t get a single tile, you must buy in packages of 10.
Most garage floor tiles discussed above fall into the category of interlocking garage floor tiles that are rigid. This means they are made of hard plastic polypropylene and not from rubber or PVC. They are the most common and effective garage tile and definitely more suited for the garage than flexible pvc tiles.
Most household chemicals will not stain or harm them. Concrete sealers can be used prior to installation if excessive moisture in the floor is a concern. They can be used in storage sheds but expansion and contraction can be an issue on a wood floor. Generally speaking, tiles purchased From Garage Flooring LLC, GarageFLoor.com, RaceDeck or Swisstrax will be considerably higher quality than what you will find in home improvement centers.
Interlocking tiles will outperform and outlast peel and stick tiles. While there are many flooring options available, rigid tiles are one of our favorites for covering a concrete floor. Interlocking rubber tiles, VCT and Diamond Nitro rolls would be our least favorites. VCT tiles are for school hallways, not for a floor jack.
Interlocking tiles and garage floor coating are not direct competitors. Garage floor coatings are generally for a different kind of customer than garage tiles. Deciding if the are the best garage product for you is something you will need to decide — again PLEASE just stay away from floor paint
