"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!!!"

"Stud Construction was professional and gave us great solution on the layout and finish of our 1500 sq ft basement. In addition to the basement we had them install hardwood floors in our dining area and living room and refinish the existing wood floor entrance. Justin was extremely responsive to inquiries and overall communication during all phases of the project. He was able to source subs in a timely manner and fix any concerns we had along the way. The subs were professional and respectful. We're very pleased with the finish and would recommend and use Stud Construction again."

Garages 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.

The best options for lubricating a garage door are silicone- or lithium-based lubricants made specifically for this purpose. These products are designed to deeply penetrate the door's components, such as hinges and springs, providing long-lasting protection against wear and tear. A silicone-based lubricant is an excellent choice as it also prevents rust and corrosion and performs well in extreme heat and cold.

It is important to avoid certain products. Do not use heavy, oil-based lubricants or standard grease, as they can attract dust, dirt, and other debris that may get caught in the tracks. You should also avoid using WD-40, as it can strip away any existing lubrication.

You can typically find appropriate garage door lubricants online or at a local hardware store for less than $10.

Insulating an unheated garage can still be worth it. For instance, insulating an attached garage can help with heat loss from your house in general, and it can also make it easier to store electronics in your garage without worrying about them being exposed to extreme temperatures.

If you use your detached garage as a workspace, insulation can still make a difference. Plus, you can use space heaters and a window unit AC to help condition the space while you work without installing heating.

Garage door insulation can last anywhere from 20 to 100 years depending on the type of insulation. Cellulose has the shortest lifespan coming in at between 20 and 30 years, while spray foam, mineral wool, and fiberglass can last between 80 and 100 years with proper maintenance. 

Humidity plays a role in how long more susceptible insulation materials—like fiberglass—last. Once fiberglass batts reach the 15-year mark, you'll need to routinely inspect your insulation to ensure that it is in mint order.

As with anything you buy, be wary of prices that seem too good to be true. Some low-cost flooring products can contain chemicals that release harmful VOCs (volatile organic compounds) in the form of fumes that can be inhaled or dust that can cause skin conditions.

Even good-quality products can be dangerous for DIY-ers who don’t take proper precautions. Always carefully read manufacturer instructions and wear the recommended protective gear when working with paints and other chemicals. You can also hire a local garage flooring pro with the experience and equipment needed to perform the installation safely with no lingering fumes or debris.
