How To Keep Dust Out of Your Garage
For many homeowners, a garage is a multifunctional space. It can serve as a storage area, workshop, or even an extension of your living space. It can also be a magnet for dust and debris. Here are some effective strategies to help you maintain a clean and organized garage…
- Seal Gaps: Dust often finds its way into the garage through gaps around doors and windows. Inspect these areas for any openings and seal them with weather stripping to help reduce the amount of dust that enters your garage.
- Good Quality Garage Door Seal: Make sure that your garage door has a quality seal along the bottom to prevent dust from blowing in. If your existing seal is damaged or ineffective, consider a replacement.
- Epoxy-Based Polyaspartic Flooring: This type of floor coating is made with materials that are not only easier to clean but also provide a barrier against dust settling into porous surfaces like concrete.
- Organize + Declutter: A cluttered garage provides more surfaces for dust to settle. Regularly declutter and organize your garage to minimize hiding spots for dust. By using storage solutions like cabinets, slat walls, or overhead storage racks, you can keep your items off the floor.
- Regular Cleaning Routine: Establishing a regular cleaning routine will help minimize dust. Wipe down surfaces, shelves, and equipment to remove dust effectively.
With these strategies, you’ll spend less time battling dust and more time enjoying a well-kept and organized garage. If you are interested in upgrading your garage floor or adding storage solutions, give the team at Welborn Garage a call to schedule a free same-day estimate!
