Installation Guide
Interlocking tiles click together like puzzle pieces. No glue, no fixing, no experience needed.
The short version
- Start at the entrance and work backwards, leaving a 5-10mm gap at every wall.
- Click each tile in by hand or with a mallet. Get the first row straight and the rest follows.
- Cut the edge tiles last with a jigsaw. Walk and park on it straight away.
Watch the full install in under 2 minutes
See a complete garage floor go down, no special tools, no tradies, no mess.

Reviews from real installs
“Even with zero tradie background, we prepared the floor, centred the design, laid the tiles, cut the edges and installed the ramps in four and a half hours.”
“So easy to lay, so easy to jigsaw fiddly bits, just clicks into place. Fast delivery, great communication, it was all just too easy!”
“I used this product several years ago in my garage and it still looks great. Absolutely no marks or signs of wear.”
Before You Start
Gather your tools and prepare your space
What you'll need
Preparation checklist
- Clear the garage completely, move everything out
- Sweep and clean the concrete floor thoroughly
- Check you have all your tile boxes and edge ramps
- Open boxes and let tiles acclimatise for 30 minutes
- Plan your colour layout (see our Colour Scheme guide)
Step 01: Start From the Entrance
5-10 minStart at either corner of the entrance. Leave a small gap at the walls so the tiles can expand with the heat.
- Choose your starting corner (usually the garage door side)
- Ensure the female (looped) sides face away from the entrance and wall
- Leave a 5-10mm expansion gap between tiles and all walls
Pro tip
Starting from the entrance lets you work backwards, so you never box yourself into a corner.
Step 02: Lay the First Row
15-30 minWork your first row across the garage, clicking the tiles together as you go. The pegs and loops do the work for you.
- Place the loop edge of the new tile over the peg edge of the placed tile
- Press down firmly with your foot or use a rubber mallet until it clicks
- Continue clicking tiles across the full width of the garage
Pro tip
The first row matters most, so take your time getting it straight. Everything else follows from here.
Step 03: Fit Entrance Ramps
15-20 minClip the ramp trims onto the first row and slide the row snug against the garage door.
- Snap ramps onto exposed tile edges at the garage entrance
- Push the first row tight against the closed garage door so ramps sit flush
- Work along the full entrance width, clicking ramps onto each tile edge
Pro tip
The ramps sit against the door, so clearance is not a concern. Just make sure the row is straight before you lay the rest of the floor.
Step 04: Centre Your Design (Optional)
10-15 minIf your design has a centred pattern like a checkerboard or stripes, adjust the first row so the gap is equal on both sides.
- Measure the total width and find the centre line
- Adjust tiles so the gap is equal on both sides
- Mark your centred starting point for reference
Pro tip
Use our 3D Design Studio to lay out your exact garage before you order. It takes the guesswork out of centring.
Step 05: Lay the Remaining Tiles
2-4 hoursNow it is a rhythm: click, step, repeat. Keep laying rows towards the back and side walls, watching the floor take shape.
- Work in rows across the floor, clicking each tile into the previous one
- Follow your colour pattern as you go, easier to swap a tile now than later
- Stop at the final rows if they need cutting to fit
Pro tip
You'll hear a satisfying click when a tile locks in. If one feels loose, step on the seam firmly or give it a tap with the mallet.
Step 06: Trim Edges and Finish
30-60 minCut the edge tiles to fit, click them in and you're done. Walk on it, drive on it, the floor is ready straight away.
- Measure the gap, mark your cut line and cut with a jigsaw
- Leave a 5-10mm expansion gap at all walls
- Your floor is ready immediately, drive on it, walk on it, no curing time
- For tricky cuts around pipes and pillars, see our Trimming guide
Pro tip
Cut wall tiles one at a time after laying the full field. Small layout shifts change the wall gap, so cutting in advance wastes tiles.
Frequently Asked Questions
Most single-car garages (20-25 sqm) take 4-6 hours. Double garages (40-50 sqm) usually take 6-10 hours. That includes prep, install and finishing.
Minor unevenness and cracks are fine, the tiles flex a little to sit flat. For bigger dips, more than about 10mm, level them with a self-levelling compound first.
Yes. The tiles don't bond to the concrete, they just lay on top. Existing paint, epoxy or coatings won't affect the install.
Sweep or vacuum regularly. For a deeper clean, mop with warm water and a mild detergent. Spills wipe straight up, the tiles are chemical-resistant.
Need to trim tiles?
Most installs need a few tiles trimmed to fit edges and obstacles. Our trimming guide covers every scenario.
