Is it actually meant to be a garage and if not then can the floor support the car?

I suspect the garage door might be a clue

Why is the top down on the car in the middle of winter? Hmmm.

Why are their curtains in the garage? Hmmm.

Oh and youre gonna need a bigger mop.

The top was down because I like to let it ventilate, I was polishing it earlier and hate the smell of it. It's technically a converted garage. Was originally an office, then got converted to a pool room... now it's just lying empty and used for the car or whatever.

I'm not one of the posers who drives around in winter with the roof down if that is what you were implying. Summer only

I have checked with my dad. It is indeed concrete under the tiles. I didn't know this.

Garage doors not the problem. The drain photo's are out the back of the property, not the front where the door is.

I'm totally confused, where is your half naked* girlfriend on the Porsch-er?

*any half.

So is the water coming from that drain? Deffo call the council. Oh and move that drill and unplug and move the fridge if you haven't already done so.

Out of interest why such a posh garage... tiled floor and patio doors??? Is it actually meant to be a garage and if not then can the floor support the car?

It was originally an office. Concrete under and will support

Thank **** someone ripped that 'worst i have a...' joke apart

Heh. In fairness I hate those bloody "jokes", as they are so rarely funny. Just couldn't resist on this occasion...

At some point in the rooms life it was clearly not a garage though... the radiator, sliding patio doors, tiled floor, and skirting board give it away. Either it started life as a garage, was converted to a room ,then back to a garage... or it was originally a normal room which someone has slapped a garage door onto.

EDIT: Ah, OP has just explained

Good point! Maybe parking the car on that floor caused a pipe underneath to rupture? :eek:

Like others have said:
- Kill the power to the room
- Unplug all electrical devices
- Sweep the water outside
- Try and contain the water to that room, block doors etc
- I would call the council or a plumber right away

Can't you run along and play in the "I can't wait till Puberty" forums. Your silly juvenile comments really aren't contributing to anything other than making you look like a jealous (for what reason I have no idea) child!

Worst "I haven't read the FAQ" post ever.

It's sometimes spelt that way here. It's not an attempt to skip the filters.

Suck it up (with a wet and dry vac)!

I got an infraction before the filters came about for the real word like that. It just means poor up here. No swearing was meant. I would still not use it because of that though

All done now. Thank's to those adults who offered sensible advice. Much appreciated.

Will get a plumber first thing in morning

Glad you got it sorted. Can't be a nice thing.
