I built our house in 1992 with a three car garage, garage floors level. My youngest daughter just got her driving license so now I've got 4 drivers and 4 vehicles. Old dad now gets to park his truck out in the yard as daughters and wife have taken over the garage spaces. I had a concrete guy out today to discuss building on another garage space. He had a pretty strong mind set that I needed a sloped floor in the addition. I told him I did not like sloped garage floors and wanted it level. I'm outside city limits so no code to meet. Yes, for the past 28 years we get a little water puddled in the garage with level floors but it has never been a big problem. I think the slope would aggravate me more than a little standing water. The garage floor is 2 blocks down from the main house slab. I told him I would think about it, his crew is coming next week to pour the footings. What say you, slope or no slope on a garage floor?
