"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."
"Rene Emilio and his team were great! They removed a full house of popcorn ceilings, smoothed, re-textured and then painted. Terrific job -- it looks like a brand new house! The team was friendly and very professional and kept to our planned time frame. I can't wait to work with them again on my next project!"
"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!"
"I signed the contract for the garage in April 2014. It took until September to complete the relatively simple construction. The contractors that were hired for the work (the owners only installed the garage doors) did a good job on each element when they were there. The price was reasonable and didn't change. We got a 24x24 two car garage. The problem was with the placement of the garage initially. The owner who provided the estimate did not understand the issues associated with where we wanted the garage and we had to move locations twice. Then it seemed as if work only got performed when I called and pushed for it. Even then, work was often not performed when requested. Bottom line is the work itself was done well, within cost, and the finished product is good. The management of the job was erratic at best and took months longer than necessary. I would recommend any of the performers, but would not buy from Affordable Garages again."
"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."
"Francisco Garcia did an excellent job finishing our basement. The work quality is excellent. The communication and flexibility throughout the project was excellent. The project finished on time within budget with zero surprises. Any concerns that arose were addressed expeditiously and professionally. I highly recommend Colorado Paradise Builders for your next project. The building inspections were coordinated by Colorado Paradise Builders and passed easily. We learned while talking to the inspectors that we had a gift by using Francisco as a general contractor. They mentioned other people in the business may not provide the level of customer service and professionalism which Colorado Paradise Builders demonstrated on our basement finishing project. I could not be more enthusiastic with a recommendation."
"Andy and his dad did a great job on the trim work of the house. They even fixed up some other things, like doors that weren't closing properly. They had to come back to finish up some of the work but were prompt in doing so. Andy always had great communication and was very helpful throughout the process. Would definitely hire them for another project in the future."
"I hired Brant to remove and old unsightly fireplace, repair dry wall and have it prepared for me to paint. Brant was thorough, professional and kind. He was great to work with and very generous with his time."
It can take anywhere from a couple of hours to a day or two to clean out a garage. Times vary depending on the garage size, accessibility, and the amount and type of items that need sorting and lifting. A triple-car garage full of decades of clutter will take much longer to clear than a single garage with just a few unwanted bulky items.
The level of insulation is determined by both the material and the thickness of the door. Some garage door materials (such as wood) have natural insulating capabilities, while other materials (such as metal) do not. No matter the material, two-layer and three-layer garage doors have a higher R-value than single-layer garage doors, as insulation is fitted between the panels.
You can put sliding doors on your garage, but it’ll save you money if you install them when you’re building the garage, so you avoid removal costs for the old door. Garage doors are sectional, using vertical tracks and large springs to lift the door. These require professional removal, and the cost can quickly add up to thousands of dollars.
Garage door sensors should be installed on each side of the door, typically six inches off of the ground. The sensors communicate through an infrared beam, so they need to face each other directly for the system to work properly. Make sure they’re level and aligned, and keep the area around them clear. If they’re too high or out of alignment, your garage door won’t function properly.
New garage doors are often worth the investment because they improve the appearance of your home, make it more secure, and add to your property value. Installing a new garage door costs $1,200 on average, but you’ll have greater peace of mind that your garage door will function properly and keep your home safe. If you sell your home shortly after replacing your garage door, you’re expected to see close to a 100% return on investment, which is significantly higher than most home improvement projects and almost instantly makes the project worthwhile.
