Josh Allen - Potomac Garage Solutions

A while back I sold our garage floor to a customer who had his garage full of stuff. We took a trailer to his house and emptied his garage into our trailer, completed his floor transformation, and took all the his items out of our trailer and put them back where he asked us to place them. Here is what he wrote on the Better Business Bureau site as a review:

I hired Potomac Garage Solutions to Renovate my garage. Josh Allen was the On-Site Supervisor and the entire team did an excellent Job. Everything stated in the Contract was executed in a timely manner and to my satisfaction. I am a retired Veteran with an eye for detail and will recommend Potomac Garage Solutions to any person/s who would like to have quality work done in their garage.
Mr. Josh Allen is a Professional who listens effectively and will answer your questions without any mental reservations whatsoever. Working with Mr. Allen exceeded my expectations.

So, I took a short break during the holiday season but we did finish the garage during the holidays. Below are pictures of our garage. We changed the garage door opener from the chain driven track above the garage to a wall mounted door opener which is a lot quieter and we can control it with our phone from anywhere via the internet. We can use Amazon Key® when we purchase from Amazon so the driver can leave packages in our garage stopping porch pirates from getting our stuff.
We put a polyaspartic coating on the floor for easy maintenance, we chose Creekbed which has a grey base with various other colors to match the brick on our house.
The cabinets are 18 gauge, which is very sturdy, and comes with a limited lifetime warranty. The wall mounted cabinets and the floor cabinets are the same gauge and have so much room for all my band equipment, my tools, sporting equipment, electric and plumbing supplies, etc. We added slat walls so we can add shelving, hooks, and various other accessories to hold even more of our stuff. I will be adding LED lighting and in ceiling speakers for my Sonos for when I am working in the garage. No I didn't add a TV but I do have two work benches so I can use my laptop and or iPad if I need to follow a video while working on my Jeep or Harley. I am so excited about how our garage turned out and am looking forward to the first warm day so I can change the oil and tune up my motorcycle.

You will not find another company who can offer this same quality, please let me know what you think. Just let me know when you want me to give you your free no obligation quote.

We started our garage yesterday. It was a mess with all my band equipment, Harley, tools, and a bunch of junk. We removed the cabinets I installed myself over 20 years ago and prepped the walls for paint. We installed the slat wall on one of the walls, we chose to combine white and black because we will be hanging a Harley neon light Darcel bought me for my birthday years ago. We also installed a wall mount door opener, these are so quiet, they connect to the internet so I can open the door from anywhere. These also automatically lock when the door shuts because with a crowbar your garage door can be opened if it isn't locked. It also has a battery backup for those horrible nights when you lose power.

Ok back to the garage. My wife, Darcel, is very impressed with the quality of work and how hard our installers work, I assured her this is how they treat every customer, this treatment is not because I am an employee of Potomac Garage Solution.

Here are some of the pictures showing how much was in the garage and what is looks like now that it is empty.

Stay tuned, Garage-Ma-Hall on the way

12/01/2022

On Monday we start our Garage-Ma-Hall project. We are painting the walls and ceiling, putting down a polyaspartic floor and floor molding, adding slat walls, some base and wall cabinets as well as some lockers. We have beverage coolers and a vacuum for the cars being installed. I will be posting videos and pictures as we progress throughout this journey.

Let me know your thought, comments, and questions and don’t hesitate to share this with your friends. As always if you would like us to do any wok around your house contact me for your fee, no obligation, estimate.

Garage Door technology has improved over the years. If your garage door is over 15 years old you might not be getting all the insulation you might want. If your garage walls are not finished this might not be very important to you and would be a different discussion for another time. At the base of your door there is an insulation strip to help keep out the weather but this isn’t enough to keep out the cold, many of the older doors are made of a thin sheet of material. At Potomac Garage Solutions we offer various R values (roughly, in the context of construction, the R-value is a measure of how well a two-dimensional barrier, such as a layer of insulation, a window or a complete wall or ceiling, resists the conductive flow of heat) for your needs. The higher the “R” value the more insulation. We still offer zero insulation too.

The next thing to consider is the look of your door, is your current door contemporary, carriage style, raised planks, etc.? Do you want windows, if so, how many? If you have a two car garage with a divider you’re tired of hitting it ;-) we can remove this for you and give you a two car garage with one large opening. As you can see there is a lot to consider and we can help guide you and help make your decision process a little less painful.

If you would like a no obligation consultation please give us a call. Remember to ask for Josh Allen at (240) 314-0280 or send me an email me at [email protected]

We have discontinued our Pro line of cabinets but we have a few base units and wall cabinets left. We can offer you a great deal on these. You can install them yourself or we can install them for a small installation fee. Below is a picture of the base cabinets and wall cabinets. We don’t have any of the lockers in stock. Let me know if you would like a quote on them. Although these are discontinues they are still in boxes and in brand new condition. They are 24 gauge steel and are in grey.

The base cabinet dimensions are 24” w x 16” d x 30” h
The wall cabinets are 24” w x 12” d x 19.5” H
