(Part 2) Reddit mentions: The best flooring materials

Awesome, I like to think I can kind of paint ;)

I also didn't want to run it because air movement is bad when your painting, especially in a construction zone. Good thing I didn't have the power to run it lol.

The flooring was probably the cheapest part. I ordered 8 cases of this and used 5. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008E486F0

this mat...incstores 1/4" mat roll... Is this a good investment? For free weights, under my treadmill and for use during floor workouts.

How about commercial vinyl baseboard trim?

I'd probably just paint it to somewhat match the floor and call it good.

I'll give bleach a try next, greatly appreciate the recommendations!

Maybe something like this? https://www.amazon.com/Rubber-Cal-Coin-Grip-Metallic-Flooring/dp/B015T8O4EA?ref_=Oct_BSellerC_13398711_5&pf_rd_p=a39c6044-ac37-55e3-a8e1-dd8534c9ee59&pf_rd_s=merchandised-search-6&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_i=13398711&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=YQGJ1EDXCJ8GMC890A52&th=1&psc=1

Deck tiles would be easy.

I know it's not your job to fix something like this, but if it bothers you enough, you could buy something like this adhesive trim and put it along the crack

Saved you a click https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004L7EMNO?ref_=Oct_CARAsinC_2231037011_2 this looks similar. Use extra adhesive

A typical single car garage is something like 20' deep and 10' wide. 200 square feet. If you put your drywall 1/4" off of the ground, as is typical, you would stay dry until 1/4" * 200sqft = 6.6 cubic feet of water accumulated. That's roughly 50 gallons.

So I know there are places in the US that get a lot of snow... But not enough to melt into 50 gallons of water. And if it does, your garage probably has a slight slope to it (almost all do) that will naturally drain the water out the garage door.

I'm currently renovating my garage, and I left 1/4" of space, and I will be putting "Cove Base Trim" around the floor. It's a 4" tall, thin vinyl trim that will withstand any splashes.

https://www.amazon.com/M-D-Building-Products-73898-60-Feet/dp/B000R3X10G/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1487390981&sr=8-5&keywords=cove+base

The stand is tripodal so you simply need something that can withstand the weight at those three points.

wickedpissa mentioned bedrisers which is the right idea - support the stand at it's three points with minimal equipment - but could be a little low on substantiality (not a word but best describes what I mean).
Because the stand will be much bulkier than, say, a bed riser, it will be prone to knocking the riser over. Something with more mass such as concrete block would not be prone to such a problem and would give you about 6 inches of rise.

Your next issue to overcome is that the rising of the stand will place the center of mass at a greater height than what the stand is designed for. When too high, the stand is liable to fall over. This can be resolved by either A) attaching to the wall (as seen in many tall pieces of furniture) or B) attaching the stand to the risers.

What I would do is take three concrete blocks from your local block and brick supplier and cover them in carpet (for aesthetics). Next, just plop the stand on top. Then use concrete or drywall anchors to bolt a wire to your wall. Then attach that wire to a point near the top of your stand to keep it from tipping.

Agreed. If you go with a transition strip look for one that says it goes from laminate to tile like the link below. You'll see in the pictures but the two sides are different heights

Just did it this past weekend. Used this 2-in-1 highly reviewed inexpensive underpayment:

Also I'd definitely get an installation kit:
Floorlot Flooring Laminate and Engineered Floor Installation Kit https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01FTAE1T6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_thyIzbA8ZA6NR

Edit: *underlayment

I found this merch on Amazon

Dont do that. It will get gross and does little to make anything nicer. It is a 70's solution not a modern one.

Edit: get some of these. Snap down decking that will hide the concrete and look much more appealing than astro turf.

You can, but you'd have to decouple the electric filament from the concrete so the heat goes up into your floor and not down. Ditra makes a lot of products for this and they're expensive, but you can find cheaper versions.

Since you're repouring a slab, you also have the option to add foam directly to the floor before your pour the concrete. This depends on how much depth you have to work with though, as it's generally recommended that you add 1-2" of foam under the new concrete. Not ideal, but if you have the depth....

Once you replace your drywall I'd suggest installing this

Should prevent any water wicking up the drywall again.

How about bulk rubber flooring over the wood?

This might be what you are looking for.

I found these interlocking vinyl tiles at Lowe's the other day that I'm thinking about doing as my backsplash. I ordered a sample in 4 different colors.
