Power tools, either air battery or corded pick one and start building a batter set of tools to make the job easier. I personally use a combination of battery and air tools for my garage work area. Also having a battery dewalt drill and impact screw drug vet are must haves for small project work.

Pictures of the 2 bay garage!!!
It's not technically mine, yet! Closing on the 3rd!
On my drive to work today was thinking of all the stuff I wish I would of done while my garage was still empty when I bought my house back in 2011. That being said #1 thing I wish I would of done is epoxy the floor. soo much easier and to do when the garage is empty. If there are already stains in the concrete from oil what not I would rent a cement grinder and grind off a very thin layer and epoxy seal the floor. If you wait to do it you will have to clear out your entire garage to do it later....From experience this is not ideal...I plan on doing mine this summer, so tired of crap getting on the floor and taking forever to get the stains out.
I did this ^^^ at my last place and it was a PITA taking everything out...cleaning the floor. Coating everything, then putting it all back. I also failed to adequately get old stains off the floor first which meant it pulled up in a few spots in the first few months. Overall I was happy with it but am happier that my new place already has it done!
Best way to get the stains out is to rent a diamond concrete grinder and grind off the top layer for a perfect surface

I've seen garages like that. Does make one wonder what the original owners drove, if they went cheap on building it, or if permitting didn't allow for more. With the cost of everything around DC I'm guessing it was a space/initial build cost issue?
