Q: Can Christmas lights be stored in the garage?

• <div><p>Christmas lights and decorations are prone to heat and humidity damage, so keep this in mind if you store them in the garage. Put the lights in plastic bins with tight-fitting lids to keep moisture out to keep them safe until next year. </p></div>

Q: Can my detached garage be covered by my homeowners' insurance?

• <div><p>Your homeowners' insurance should automatically cover your detached garage. This coverage often falls under a &ldquo;separate structure&rdquo; policy. Keep in mind that there may be exceptions to this general rule. Every insurance policy has its own rules and coverage, so contact your homeowners' insurance to ensure you&rsquo;re covered&mdash;and to know how much coverage your policy offers.</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>

Q: Is it hard to install a garage door?

• <div><p>Generally speaking, it is difficult to install a garage door. It&rsquo;s a heavy object that poses a danger if it falls. If you are an experienced DIY-er, and you get help from another person with experience with this project, it is possible to install a garage door. However, manual doors are simpler to install than automatic doors because they are lighter and don&rsquo;t require the installation of cables or a motor. It&rsquo;s always best to hire a professional garage door contractor to install these, due to the safety risks involved and to ensure it&rsquo;s done correctly. </p></div>

I had a hose Bibb replacement outside my garage door. The plumber was on time and very nice. It took him less than 30 minutes to replace a $25 part and he charged me $509. You might can get a better plumber but you won’t pay more! It is a shame because he did a good job.
