Spring will soon be here – it’s time to give your prefabricated concrete garage a polish! A few simple steps will keep your garage clean and tidy. So it protects your vehicle well.

A well-maintained garage protects your car from wind and weather. It also helps to maintain its value. In addition, regular cleaning and maintenance extend the service life of your prefabricated concrete garage. Here you can find out the best way to do this.

 

1. Spring cleaning in the garage: clean concrete walls and floors

Concrete is robust and durable, but it also benefits from regular maintenance. Dust, dirt, and deposits quickly build up over the winter months. Thorough cleaning creates a pleasant atmosphere and prevents long-term damage.

Clean the floor: First sweep up loose dirt and dust. Grit and road salt residue often collect in the garage, especially after winter. Stubborn stains such as oil or rubber marks can be removed with warm water and a mild detergent.

A brush or floor squeegee helps with stuck-on dirt. Make sure you allow the floor to dry thoroughly afterward.

Clean the walls: Dust the walls with a dry cloth or remove cobwebs with a broom. Dirt often settles in hard-to-reach corners in particular. Light soiling can be removed with a damp sponge and a neutral cleaning agent.

Tip: Avoid aggressive cleaning agents such as ammonia or bleach – these can attack and damage the concrete surface.

 

2. Your car is safe and dry – in any weather

With a ZAPF garage, your vehicle remains well protected all year round. Thanks to its solid construction, it provides reliable protection against rain, hail, and intense sunlight.

This has several advantages:

Avoid rust and paint damage: The closed design keeps your car dry and clean. Rust caused by moisture is prevented, and the paintwork stays shiny for longer.

Less maintenance: As your car is reliably protected from dirt and weather, care and maintenance work is noticeably reduced.

More security: High-quality locking systems and modern door operators provide additional protection against burglary and theft.

In addition, parking in the garage protects your car better from pollen, dust, and other contaminants. This keeps your vehicle clean and well-maintained for longer.

3. Garagentor und Beleuchtung überprüfen

Ein kurzer Check Ihrer Garage kann verhindern, dass kleinere Probleme größer werden.

Garagentor prüfen: Reinigen Sie die Schienen und Federn des Tors mit einem trockenen Tuch. Prüfen Sie, ob sich das Tor leicht öffnen und schließen lässt. Falls es quietscht oder klemmt, hilft ein spezielles Schmiermittel für Garagentore.

Beleuchtung verbessern: Eine gute Beleuchtung hilft, besser in der Garage zu sehen. Sie erhöht auch die Sicherheit. Tauschen Sie alte Glühbirnen gegen energieeffiziente LED-Leuchten aus. LEDs bieten helleres Licht, verbrauchen weniger Energie und haben eine längere Lebensdauer.

In Fertiggaragen ist die Beleuchtung oft schon installiert. Sie können die Lichtqualität verbessern, indem Sie LED-Lampen mit mehr Lumen verwenden. Dies verbessert die Ausleuchtung, ohne zusätzliche Lampen installieren zu müssen.

4. Extras for spring: ensuring a pleasant climate

Regular ventilation is particularly important to prevent mold growth and moisture.

Ventilate regularly: On dry days, regularly open the garage door and windows if necessary. This creates an air exchange that transports moist air out of the garage and ensures a pleasant indoor climate.

Drying the floor: After cleaning, it is crucial to allow the floor to dry completely. Concrete can absorb moisture and store it for a long time. If the floor remains wet, this can lead to damage in the long term. Use a squeegee to remove excess water particularly quickly.

Tip: If your garage is particularly damp, a dehumidifier can help.
