I sprayed mouse repellant in my garage concrete, not knowing how horrible it smells. The repellant has garlic oil, dried blood, egg solids in it. I tried hosing it down, sprayed Renuzit super odor neutralizer and set up air fresheners. A little odor still remains. What else can i do? Should I try pouring bleach on it, scrubbing it down and hosing off, then spraying X O odor neutralizer and setting up odor absorbing gels?

Will bleach damage concrete?

Radiant heat in a concrete garage floor?

Posted by admin On April - 3 - 20105 COMMENTS

I am looking for information on installing pipe in a concrete floor for radiant heat. I am planning on using plastic coil pipe connected to a gas water heater with a circulator pump. Has anyone done this? What should I do or what shouldn’t I do?
Any tips? Thank you.

Can I install a window into our concrete garage?

We have a pre-cast concrete panel garage (here when we moved in). can i install a window into a wall? I’m guessing the panels have steel rods in them, is it ok to cut a hole in to fit a window?
many thanks

There is a little space between the concrete slab of my garage and concrete slab of my driveway. i am resealing my driveway. should i put asphalt crack sealer in there so no insects, weeds, etc get in there? should i just leave it be?

Foundation is concrete which is 50 years old probably but garage is new. Contractor said the slab should be ok. half inch cracks as well as smaller ones
