 Good afternoon Workshop friends. We have cleared the shed. 

I want to paint the walls and epoxy the floor. 

What I need advice for first is - do we need to use a special waterproofing sealer on the bottom section of the wall because on the other side it’s raised up as garden ect. 
I have added photos to show the walls and also the surrounding areas as you can see how it is different levels if that makes sense ? Thank you in advance 😀

Community manager's note: Check out How to apply epoxy to a garage floor for expert advice.

Morning @mich1972 

Ohhhh yeah! New garage! :smile: You have done some nice work there. Please post the project :smile: It makes it easier for the next person that has the same questions plus I think it is interesting. How long all up from Planning to finishing it has it taken? I am lucky I have facebook memories that remind me when I have done a project and the stages I have gone through. :smile:

 

Now the question is, Are you going to use the garage as a garage or something else?
