"David, the owner, was very responsive to my call for a new garage door; he provided me with a comprehensive quote for the work that needed to be done. And, he had the new garage door installed and working within the time frame that he had given me for when he would be able to get the job done."

"Kirk from Reliable Gargage Door came and helped fix my garage door. He did an excellent job going through the process of unstuck the door to replacing the springs and recalibrate the opener. He went extra step in fixing/replacing the anchor of the retractor beam, which also broke. I would recommend Kirk and Reliable Gargage Door to everyone needs garage door services."

"Initially we thought we were just in need of an adjustment but the actual spring was falling apart and they replaced it on the spot. AngiesList coupon deal $75 for garage door tune up and an additional $350 for the replacement of the spring. Not happy about the additional cost BUT it was totally necessary. 5***** all the way around!"

"The technician talked me into a deal by misleading me to believe I would get a discounted price (with manufacturer coupons and an agreement of doing it now - no time to consider and compare) for the highest quality spring (50k-cycle). But it ended up the spring is 15k-cycle (realized from reading the invoice). After the broken part was replaced, a new issue came up - the garage door moved but bounced back right away. He insisted that the motor was old and I needed to get a new one. I told him that this issue didn't exist before the fix and it could be something was touched during his fix. We fell into arguments. He wanted to leave with a nonworking garage door or I should get a new motor to replace. I recalled that I had the same issu a long while ago and it was fixed by adjusting the two sensors. He realigned the sensors and finally the garage was working fine. But the experience is unpleasant."

Garage Doors questions, answered by experts

It is typically cheaper to build a garage than to buy a prefab one if you can provide most of the labor yourself. If you plan to hire a contractor for the entire build, a prefab garage or kit will likely be less expensive. However, even with a garage kit, you may still need to hire professionals to install the foundation, concrete floor, and handle electrical and plumbing work. If you are not an experienced builder, it can be a worthwhile investment to hire a local garage builder who can manage all aspects of the project, including coordinating other necessary professionals.

If your garage door seems to freeze every winter, you can try rubbing silicone spray or petroleum jelly around the edges and rollers of the garage door. However, it’s a good idea to avoid direct application of silicone sprays like WD40 to rubber edges, which could damage them over time. A garage door that frequently freezes shut could need a full replacement, especially if it’s showing signs of rust or other wear and tear.

Single and double garage doors have pros and cons, but it's all based on personal preference regarding which one is better for you. Two single garage doors give you more control over airflow entering your garage but double the system, which means double the upkeep cost. 

On the other hand, two-car double garage doors are more convenient but can stop you from leaving if a piece of hardware malfunctions.

If you plan on heating your garage, you must install a vapor barrier when drywalling the garage. A vapor barrier protects your garage from frost and mold that can occur through condensation. If your garage is unheated, you don't need to install a vapor barrier. The only exception is if you regularly crank the heat in your car before getting in it. In this case, you may still want to install a vapor barrier, as your car can heat your garage.

Garage doors are heavy and close under power, so ensuring they're safe should be one of the priorities of a homeowner. Installing at least one sensor is a good start, but it doesn't hurt to have two, especially considering you can install a secondary system for less than $100. Remember that sensors require calibration and simple but regular maintenance checks— installing them is only the first step.
