The fast growing trend to customize residential garages seems to have generated in the southwest, where mild weather encouraged people to spend time there. With the addition of evaporative coolers and special heating systems, garage became useable in all kinds of weather. As these became extensions of living spaces, the organizational needs for it also evolved. One of the first steps to customize outbuildings, the addition of custom cabinets, may have led to the popularity of garage floor coatings. With people getting more organized and wanting better looking garages, it's only natural that they would want to upgrade the look of the floor as well.Houseowners no longer had to settle for boring, grey cement flooring. Outbuildings are no longer dirty, disorganized as it was in past and now more than ever; new homes are built with garages that house at least two cars. For example in 2005, 84% of all newly built homes included a garage that can accommodate at least two cars. More importantly, 82% of homebuyers agree that it is an important factor in making a final decision while purchasing a home. Outbuilding enhancement is now one of the fastest growing segments in the home improvement industry.
