Another case of shoddy cement finishing! I can't believe how many concrete floors are finished sloping away from the drains not to the drains.AAAARRGGHH! It burns me up. O.K. Quickie route would be to chisel a trench to allow the water to flow to the drain. Next would be to install a drain or trench drain in the pooling area & connect it to the drain piping under the floor. Also a dam could be built around the garage perimeter. Lastly [and most expensive] have a new floor poured with all sides sloping to the drain. C.
