VaPatentman Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 Random question, how many guys have urinals in their garages? I installed a small urinal in my garage today. My wife thinks I was crazy to do this. Her theory is there is a complete bathroom in the Mother-in-law suite above the garage and I can just run up there when nature calls. My thought is--- I don’t have to take off my booths if they’re dirty to go upstairs and it saves time. Any comments. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/51864-urinals-in-the-garage/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezrider Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 i don't see a problem with it especially if there is no other restroom in the garage itself even more so if sudsy beverages tend to be consumed in there. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/51864-urinals-in-the-garage/#findComment-386610 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Mack Technician Posted December 5, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted December 5, 2017 (edited) My old co-worker qualified every floor drain as a legal bathroom. I'd say your pretty civil to install a urinal.

h67st Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 I agree with you, VaP. I don't have a urinal but I live out in the sticks so I just go behind the barn. It would be a pain in the keister to remove said boots every time I go. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/51864-urinals-in-the-garage/#findComment-386629 Share on other sites More sharing options...
fxfymn Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 A friend has one in his garage and in his master bath as well. I always thought it was pretty neat. One of my requirements for a house site was that I had to be able to pee outside anytime I wanted. Therefore there was no need to add a bathroom to the Garage Mahal. 2 Quote Money, sex, and fire; everybody thinks everyone else is getting more than they are!

Popular Post eddeere Posted December 5, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted December 5, 2017 I do and also have an apartment ref. for sudsy beverages. I live out in a rural area and can go outside if I want. All of this keeps her happy. They remodeled a locker room at work and gave me everything I needed. Not fancy but clean. 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/51864-urinals-in-the-garage/#findComment-386656 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freightrain Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 Way back after college, hanging out at buddies garage, we all used the backyard fence. His mother had some sunflowers growing there. She would complain that we were killing them(one was always short). We told her that we didn't use that one, but the really tall one was the one we watered!!! My garage has no bathroom, but I do go outside if needed. Nothing worse then having to go all the way to the house and get the grubby shoes off to use the bathroom.

Hobert62 Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 I do have a bathroom framed in my garage under the steps to go up stairs, but never finished it. Good news is radar map shows that my "urinal" will be flushing for awhile yet. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/51864-urinals-in-the-garage/#findComment-386672 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtymilkman Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 Your weather looks better than mine. 12°f here and 50 mph wind gusts. So the "outdoor urinal" is out of order when it's this windy. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/51864-urinals-in-the-garage/#findComment-386684 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brocky Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 (edited) My garage got plumbed for sink, toilet, and shower into a dry well out in the adjacent cow pasture before I poured the floor, BUT I have never finished the whole interior of the shop, so I just go out to the pasture fence!!!
