You feel it in the air. That morning chill. That hint of frost. The first snow is just around the corner—and if you’re still parking in the driveway, now’s the time to act.
At TLC GarageWorks, we hear the same regret every winter: “I wish we’d done the garage sooner.” Don’t be that homeowner brushing snow off the car in January, wishing you had a place to pull in.
Let’s talk about why right now—before the first snowflake falls—is the perfect time for a garage makeover that gets your space cleaned up, organized, and winter-ready.
As Bob Carr puts it: “There are two kinds of people—those who walk out to a warm car in winter, and those who don’t. Let’s get you in the first group.”
1. Snow + Ice = A Car Outside Is a Daily Headache
Leaving your vehicle in the elements every night comes at a cost: – Scraping ice every morning – Cold starts that drain your battery – Snow buildup that damages paint and seals – Higher risk of theft or damage
You’ve got a garage—so let’s get your car inside where it belongs.
2. A Pre-Snow Garage Makeover Gets You Ready for the Season
Before snow hits, we can help you: – Clear out the clutter – Install real storage solutions – Coat the floor to resist salt, snow, and slush – Add a drop zone for boots, coats, and bags – Create space to park—and still have room to move
Our fast, full-service makeovers take just days. And once we’re done, your garage becomes a clean, organized, weatherproof zone.
Bonus: You can finally store winter gear where it makes sense—not buried in the basement.
3. Floor Coatings Protect Your Concrete from Winter Damage
TLC’s polyaspartic and polyurea coatings don’t just look great—they defend your garage against winter’s worst:
- Salt and de-icer chemicals
- Snow melt and water pooling
- Hot tire pickup and chipping
They cure quickly in cold weather and are easy to clean all season long.
Bob Carr’s tip: “Concrete cracks. Don’t let winter finish the job.”
4. Storage Systems Keep Winter Gear Ready to Go
Snow shovels. Ice melt. Sleds. Gloves. Where is it all right now?
Let us build you a smart system with: – Wall-mounted racks for tools and snow gear – Overhead bins for off-season storage – Open shelving for daily grab-and-go – Boot trays and bench seating near the entry
No more climbing over bikes to get to the snowblower. Everything in its place—ready when you need it.
5. Avoid the Winter Rush
Once the snow hits, our phones blow up. Everyone suddenly realizes: – “We need better storage.” – “We should’ve done the floors.” – “We can’t even get to the snowblower.”
Get ahead of that now. Fall scheduling is still flexible, materials are stocked, and our install crews are moving fast.
If you wait, you’ll wait longer. And you’ll be stuck brushing off your windshield in 20° weather.
6. A Garage Makeover Makes Winter Easier on Your Family
Think about the little things: – Kids coming home in wet boots—now they’ve got a drop zone – Groceries in freezing temps—now you’ve got clear floor space to load/unload – Trash and recycling—now it’s organized and easy
A winter-ready garage makes daily life smoother, warmer, and safer for everyone.
Bob’s wisdom: “The garage is your launch pad. Fix that, and the rest of your day gets easier.”
