Should garage floors always be made with a slope for water?

Asked by JLeslie (65450points) July 19th, 2022 from iPhone

I’m accustomed to Florida residential, and garages are built so water will drain out of the garage. My husband and I are looking at a commercial garage in another state, and there is water sitting in one spot in the middle of the garage. The salesperson said he left the door open during a rain storm. I figure that’s a low spot in the garage. He said in commercial they don’t have the rules about water draining out, that the floor should be flat, similar to a house floor.

I’m thinking about asking the county, but interested in what the collective has to say.
