I've been doing garage makeovers for 14 years now. I have never witnessed a diy floor coating ever work. I seriously suggest calling a pro for any garage floor coating needs. It is expensive, but it will cost even more to remove a failed coating and replace it later. Some pretty high end coatings are now available direct to homeowners. These would increase your odds, but you simply can not buy a product from a big box store that will last.

However, the floor in the "Corvette Garage" isn't a coating at all. It is a floor tile by RaceDeck. We prefer the "Free-Flow" style. Wonderful product!

One of my neighbours 'accidentally' kidnapped my cat and locked her in the garage for a week. I mean, they went on holidays and she was black and it was dark when they left, but the point still remains that they kidnapped her.

Paintings are always a sight to behold and conversion pieces. It would be nice to have one painting or several different size artistically arranged.

Hi Ah Jun congrats on having a new home! My humble thoughts; 1) storage really is individual liking. I didn't do too much cabinets and wardrobes and I regret it. Space is important, but design can make space look bigger even with storage 2) flooring is important, have to see what kind of theme you want for the house. Recommend you see the designs you have in mind and mix and match 3) your induction cooker is built in? Will there be hood and hob? I don't recommend cooking in service yard cause of clothings and all though. 4) open kitchen can look spacious, but also can don't fully hack to have space for cabinets. Also if you cook do you do heavy cooking all the time? Cleaning is another thing to ponder. 5)are you looking at combining master and common 2? Can consider walkin wardrobe also. if you keen we can have a better discussion on this. :)

I started with a design dilemma, and got some good advice from some very kind people on Houzz. The transformation took more time to figure out then it did to complete the construction. My advice to anyone wanting a new space is to do your research, without rushing into decisions, which can be difficult when working with some, because of the 'sale deadline'! Guess what? There will always be another sale! In fact, by taking my time I ended up being able to keep all of the organization options I wanted and ended up with such a great sale that I was able to upgrade to custom solid wood cabinets and drawers for the same price as my original stock cabinets with MDF panels. By customizing the sizes of cabinets, I was able to create more space to open up the small kitchen for a spacious feel. My contractor helped me achieve the built in pantry wall which puts all of my spices, canned goods, etc., right in front of me to see exactly what I have or need to replenish. But, my favorite part of this kitchen is what the contractor did with my narrow and deep closet. It was widened and turned into a dry bar with microwave and roll out storage. Having a place for my coffee maker and microwave was key, so I could keep the new expanse of counter space visible! Removing the 'bump up' wall of my original counter offered a more open concept feel, which was a great improvement. Some before and after photos can be found on the design dilemma thread: https://www.houzz.com.sg/discussions/small-entry-to-kitchen-fridge-or-something-different-dsvw-vd~5210318 Thanks to all for the Houzz advice and happy renovations!
