"Great, Eric and his crew are top notch. The pocket door requires additional work, but Eric offered me a few options to choose from. He was very communicative and clear about what to do with the pocket door. I will continue to work with Eric and his team, hopefully for many years to come. It's nice to have professionals I feel I can trust."

"I hired Sky Tech Builders to remodel my bathroom. They were referred to me by a neighbor friend that hired them and was very happy with the work and the results of the remodeling. The project manager and his team showed up on time. They were professional, knowledgeable and attentive. The end result was that the new bathroom was delivered on time and budget, and it looks fantastic! I would wholeheartedly recommend Sky Tech Builders to everyone I know."

"Herman Construction is the best company that I have hired. Karol and his crew work diligently, precisely, accurately, and are punctual. The quotes and estimates are accurate and fair. The work performed was professional and immaculate. Karol and his crew came in to install laminate flooring as I was about to start moving in. The flooring in three rooms came out gorgeous. I approached Karol with a plea of help. I explained the situation with the three rooms that had old carpeting. The previous tenants had dogs that destroyed the carpets and closets. Karol came in with his crew and performed a miracle. The rooms look brand new and the closets refinished to a state where I have lots of room for my clothing. I highly recommend Herman Construction and will be using them for all of my projects. They deserve 10 stars for being the best company."

"We hired EA Home Builders to renovate our guest bathroom - and they did a great job for us. The two gentlemen they hired for our job were skilled professionals. They said it would take about a week and it did these guys showed up on time every morning and worked all day (with a half hour break for lunch). And at the end of each day, they meticulously cleaned up the inevitable mess of the day. Without a doubt I would use EA Home Builders again for our next project."

"Having faced a leaky roof crisis during heavy rains last year, our decision to reach out to this builder turned out to be one of the best choices we made. I wholeheartedly recommend them for their exceptional service. Faced with the challenge of addressing a complex roofing issue involving both flat and slanted structures, they demonstrated unparalleled expertise. Throughout the process, their meticulous attention to detail stood out. From coordinating with skilled roofers to connecting us with a superb cabinet maker, every step was executed with precision. What truly set them apart was their commitment to effective communication, ensuring minimal disruption to our family's routine during the project. Their dedication to not just resolving the issues but doing so with a focus on quality and customer satisfaction was evident. Even during the insurance proceedings, they navigated the complexities effortlessly, making the entire experience stress-free. This builder is more than a construction service; they are a reliable partner who delivers results with an unwavering commitment to excellence."

Garages questions, answered by experts

Since garage door torsion springs have tightly wound coils under massive tension, they can cause serious injury while attempting to service them. A broken spring can also cause the garage to close rapidly, causing injuries. That’s why any adjustments or replacements of a torsion spring should only be conducted by a trained professional.

Extension springs are just as dangerous as torsion springs—especially when they break. These springs can become projectiles and may cause serious injury or property damage.

The decision on whether a garage or an extra room adds more value depends on several factors, including local market demand, location, and buyer preferences. Generally, added living space is more desirable to most buyers, and the utility of the new space determines its return on investment (ROI). Converting a garage into a livable area like a home office, guest room, or entertainment space can add significant value. An additional bedroom, especially one with a bathroom, will likely add the most value. However, adding a garage may be more valuable in areas with limited parking or harsh climates.

You do not need to drywall over most types of garage insulation. However, doing so can increase noise reduction, make the space more attractive, and keep children and pets from touching harmful fiberglass insulation. If you’re using cellulose or some other type of blown-in insulation (fiberglass and mineral wool are common), you will need drywall to contain the insulation material.

It is possible to manually open a garage door. However, whether you should manually open a garage door depends on the source of the problem. If the door doesn't open because of a broken spring or cable, for safety's sake, you'll want to leave the door closed until you can have a professional inspect it and repair it. If the problem lies with the opener itself, you should usually have no problem opening the door manually.

On average, a garage door can last between 15 and 30 years. However, this lifespan is influenced by several factors, including the quality and material of the door, local climate conditions, and how frequently it is used and maintained.

Key factors affecting longevity include:

  • Material: Wooden doors can last 20 to 30 years or more, while steel doors typically last 15 to 20 years. More robust options, like triple-layer steel, can last 25 to 30 years with proper care. The number of layers in a door also contributes to its durability, with each additional layer potentially adding five years to its life.

  • Maintenance: Regular inspections, cleaning, and immediate repairs can significantly extend the life of your garage door.

  • Usage and Climate: Doors in harsh climates or those used very frequently may wear out faster.

  • Components: Individual parts have different lifespans. For example, automatic openers may fail sooner than the door itself without regular maintenance, and garage door springs typically need replacement every 7 to 12 years.

While the door panels are designed to last as long as the door, they should be replaced sooner if they become visibly damaged, impact the door's smooth operation, or create a security risk.
