"We hired Master MCG Remodeling to build a carport. Living in the mountains we had to consider snow, high winds, rain and needed something solid. We are more than pleased with the results. Dylan was ontime everyday and worked till almost dusk. Everything was explain about the process and updates given along the way. Dylan is professional yet extremely personable. We are so happy to with the results, we've asked for a quote to remodel our laundry and create an entrance door from the new carport. We could not have asked for a better experience. Highly recommended."
"Trio installed a Trex deck for us. They showed up on time, did an exceptional job, and kept us informed every step of the way. Would not hesitate to use them again."
"Alfred was wonderful! He repaired the sliding doors in my bedroom closet that 2 other handymen were not able to do. He also hauled a heavy piece of furniture downstairs for me and removed and replaced rubber step mats on my 5 garage stairs. Noted that I had bought the wrong materials for adhesive:) He knew what was best. Don't waste your time or money, hire Cranston to do the job efficiently, I'm so thankful I did! Thank you Cranston and Alfred!"
"This Prio was very professional!
Did a very neat job! Had everything cleaned up after job was finished! Washed the storm windows outside and inside after the power washing created moisture between the storm window and regular window!
I will hire him back to paint the inside of my garage when I’m ready for that project!
I’m ready for that project!"
"The crew was very professional and efficient. Jerry, the leader, was especially knowledgeable about materials and techniques. They went beyond what was expected by matching paint, replacing a dryer vent hose, and working late. I highly recommend Superior Remodeling."
"Colorado Paradise Builders were responsive when we asked for a proposal to finish our basement. They created a thorough proposal with a price, timeline and specific details on the project. They followed through on everything in a timely manner. Everything cost what it was supposed to cost; their tradesmen were courteous and clean, and they completed the project on time. I would not hesitate to recommend them to a friend or use them again for another home project."
"Great guy and crew. He helped us design the bathrooms which we love. He added to the garage to make it a 3 car garage. Also added a covered patio. Our house is now a home. I have future project that we are going to start soon. Started working with him in 2020"
On average, RV garage doors are 12 to 14 feet tall to accommodate the large vehicles. Most RVs are approximately 9.5 feet tall but can be taller due to features such as air conditioners, satellite dishes, and luggage racks
Garage floor sealers last anywhere from one to 10 years on average, depending on the type of sealer you use and the traffic it’s exposed to. Acrylic sealers have the shortest longevity, whereas most other options can last anywhere from five to 10 years. If you use an acrylic sealant to protect against stains, reapply every one to two years. Reapply other types of concrete sealers every five years for the best results and maximum protection.
Garage door sensors work by using infrared beams to detect objects in the door’s path. One sensor sends a beam while the other receives it. When the beam is broken—say, by your car or anything else—the sensors signal the door to stop or reverse. It’s all about safety and making sure nothing gets trapped under the door. If they’re misaligned, the beam doesn’t connect, and the garage door might stay open or close regardless of obstructions.
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.
Standard garage door sizes for single doors range from 8 feet wide by 7 feet tall to 9 feet wide by 7 feet tall. An oversized single garage door would be 10 feet wide by 7 feet wide. The standard size for double garage doors is 16 feet wide by 7 feet high. However, some custom double garage doors can be as wide as 20 feet.
