Is it dangerous to quickly thaw a garage door?

• <div><p>If you take caution around fragile garage parts, thawing methods shouldn’t cause problems. Avoid using direct sources of heat too close to the garage door, especially rubber parts.</p><p>Another spot to avoid heating is the garage door spring. This powerful metal spring can become very cold in winter. Applying heat to a cold spring increases the chances it could break. </p></div>

How much does a new garage door cost?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/cost-garage-door-installation.htm">Garage door replacement costs</a> around <b>$1,200</b> on average, with prices ranging from <b>$250 to $4,500</b>, depending on a few factors. The size and material of your garage door are the most important cost factors to consider, as some materials—like wood composite—can easily cost two to three times what an aluminum garage door would total. Larger garage doors will also drive up your material and labor costs, especially if you’re also installing new hardware and garage door openers. It’s best to get a customized estimate from a local garage door installer for your project.</p></div>

Q: How do I plan and budget for a garage remodel?

• <div><p>Start by assessing your needs, setting a realistic budget, creating design plans, and selecting materials. Consulting professionals for advice can streamline the process.</p></div>

Q: Is it better to paint a garage floor with a roller or brush?

• <div><p>When you&rsquo;re painting a garage floor, it&rsquo;s best to use a combination of rollers and brushes. You&rsquo;ll want to start with a brush, making a border around the edges where the floor meets the wall. From there you can use a roller, though some people also like to do the entire first coat with a brush because it&rsquo;s easier to work the paint into the textured concrete.</p></div>
