My Garage Floor Slope Is Too Much

We have an attached two car garage with the size of about 21 x 21.

My garage floor slope is too much.

One side is about 4 5 and the other side is around 5 4. 4 drain pipes should be about 1 4 inch per foot. The garage is 28 ft deep so 1 8 to 1 4 inches per foot means the slab shoub be 3 5 to 7 inches higher at the end opposite the door. 1 8 per foot is minimum you should use.

A little more won t hurt but too much will. The apron s length depends on the required slope more length is needed to reduce steep slopes. 7 inches sounds like too much both visually and from a walkability standpoint so the most i m going to consider is 3 5. Hello this is a very dump question.

Getting ready to pour a garage floor slab. If too little slope even if the water drains it won t be self cleaning i e. 1 attach one end of the string level to the wall of the garage furthest from the main door. At a very rare occasion i measured the slope on both sides of the garage.

The apron in front of the garage smooths the transition for the vehicle from the driveway into the garage and acts as a barrier to debris and moisture. The apron extends the width of the garage floor. Determining the angle of your floor s slope provides a simple method to level work surfaces in the garage.

Although most floors slope it is important to know how much and why. Everything i ve read says slope it 1 8 to 1 4 inch per foot toward the garage door.
