Q: How long does a garage floor sealer last on average?

• <div><p>Garage floor sealers last anywhere from one to 10 years on average, depending on the type of sealer you use and the traffic it&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Q: Do you need a vapor barrier when drywalling a garage?

• <div><p>If you plan on heating your garage, you must install a vapor barrier when drywalling the garage. A vapor barrier protects your garage from frost and mold that can occur through condensation. If your garage is unheated, you don't need to install a vapor barrier. The only exception is if you regularly crank the heat in your car before getting in it. In this case, you may still want to install a vapor barrier, as your car can heat your garage.</p></div>

Q: Is it safe to install a pet door on my garage door?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/are-pet-doors-your-garage-door-safe.htm">not safe to install a pet door on your garage door</a>. Garage doors that tilt upward can roll up with your dog inside the door without you realizing it, making them dangerous and potentially deadly. Most dog doors also won&rsquo;t fit on traditional garage doors, as they would need to span the panels, compromising the door&rsquo;s stability.</p></div>

Q: Is it cheaper to buy a garage or build one?

• <div><p>In most cases, it&rsquo;s cheaper to build a garage, but it depends on how much of the labor you do yourself. If you can do most of it yourself, it tends to be cheaper than buying a prefab garage. But if you hire a contractor to build it, it&rsquo;ll likely end up more expensive than a prefab garage.</p></div>

I asked Joe to refinish two exterior metal doors that were in bad shape. They were 20 years old and had dents and marks. Joe was able to get the dents out and finish the doors with a really nice eggshell finish. Made them look brand new. Super happy with the results
