"Frank with McSwain Builders was a pleasure to work with. We were in the unfortunate circumstance of being an out-of-state landlord when the toilet upstairs flooded the entire home! We were so stressed trying to figure out how to manage the restoration of our Colorado rental property all the way from California! We flew out to Colorado for a weekend and interviewed a number of contractors and as soon as I met Frank I knew he was the right one for the job. He set us up immediately with all the right suppliers to select all the finishes for our house and just made the process as simple as could be. He set a schedule for the job and stuck to it. He always answered the phone and was always available for us to do a FaceTime walk-through to go over any questions. In the end, we made the best of our flood situation and sold our rental property for top dollar! On time and on budget, I would highly recommend working with McSwain Builders! Thank you Frank!!!"

Garages questions, answered by experts

Yes, garage cabinets are worth it to organize the tools, supplies, equipment, and gear you’ve been storing in the garage. Garage cabinets provide a great way to declutter your space while also preserving your valuables—keeping them free from dust, debris, and various weather elements. Not to mention, garage cabinets also elevate the look of your garage, which can prove beneficial when you’re looking to sell your home.

If you open your garage manually, you don’t need sensors. If you have an automatic garage door opener, sensors are required by law. The federal law UL 325 mandates that all residential garage door openers in the U.S. must include sensors. Designed to prevent accidents and reduce the risk of entrapment, the sensors should be able to reverse the motion of the garage door within two seconds of detecting an obstruction. The sensors are there to keep you, your family, and your belongings safe from a door that might otherwise come down too hard or too fast.

For a garage to be included in a home's official square footage, it must qualify as livable space. This generally means it needs to be attached to the home and have permanent finishings like proper insulation, finished walls and ceilings, and adequate ventilation. To be considered livable year-round, it should also have heating and cooling. The specific legal requirements can vary by location, but if a garage is converted into a finished room meeting these criteria, it may be counted toward the total square footage.

You should spray garage door lubricant on its important mechanical parts, including the hinges, rollers, springs, bearing plates, lock, armbar, and, potentially, rail. Do not lube the tracks, though you should clean these regularly for optimal performance.

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.
