Hi, Apologies if this has been discussed on here before but I could not see anything on here. I am about to line the floor of my garage and am thinking of using interlocking floor tiles. There are so many different manufactures and thickness's and wonder if anyone on here (I'm sure there must be) have used them and know the pro's and Con's. I have narrowed it down to BigDug value tiles but even they work out quite dear. https://www.bigdug.co.uk/mats-floor...ue-interlocking-vinyl-floor-tiles-p14434Any suggestions or advise would be appreciated. Thanks Paul

I used the same size interlocking tiles from JTF pack of 6 for just under £10, great when I fall over something and warm to sit/crawl on.

Hi M500, thank you for your reply, I've just looked but they look like they are EVA and isn't EVA foam? Do you park your car on it? Could you use a jack on it? Thanks

I used Ecotile, as they were the only ones I could find that are made in the UK. I'm very happy with them, they were easy to lay and are very tough.

Hi Hamwich, I had contacted Ecotile and they put me onto their sister Company "Garage Floor Tile Company" https://www.garagefloortilecompany.com/blogs/blog/interlocking-floor-tiles Its great to hear that you have used them and like them. In their brochure it shows a car up on axle stands and says they are ok to use with a jack. I was a little doubtful at first but if you say they are very tough thats good enough for me

Same as Craig. Plenty available on e bay. Mine are not stuck down and dirtier but a massive improvement on painted concrete.
