    Garage Workshop build - advice needed please

    Personally, I think it's worth going for cement board - much, much stronger than plasterboard. I use STS NoMorePly for floor and walls (you can get thicknesses from 6mm to 22mm) where there is the remote possibility of wet

    My workshop

    I got a full bench-sized Rhino cutting mat - as a worktop protector, as I use craft knives a lot. I'm sure it would last a long time underfoot as it is very tough, has a slightly textured surface and puts up with sharp tools. Btw if you use knives or other sharp handtools, a decent cutting mat...

It is completely weatherproof and very sturdy, although you...

I've just laid a concrete pad - also on clay soil so I've done it a little higher than the surrounding ground and put a damp-proof builders plastic down between hardcore base and the concrete...
