"Brandon was very knowledgeable and was able to repair our garage door and get us taken care of in a quick and very affordable manner. Highly recommend them for your garage needs!"
"Stephen was very knowledgeable and actually came to our home early. Did a great job of repairing our garage door. He gave me a good estimate and final cost was in line with his estimate.. I would recommend precision to anyone."
"We had our garage door spring break on a Friday. American Home Shield couldn't get anyone to come out before the following week, so we inquired as to which Garage Door Companies would fix it as emergency, since my wife has medical conditions and needs to be able to travel. Of the two Garage Door Companies that are available 24 hours, A1 Garage Door Service LLC was the only one that could be there same evening. They got to our home to fix the broken spring so we could open the Garage around 8:00 pm."
"Garage door wouldn't lower though motor appeared to be functioning. They sent out a contractor on a Sunday without an additional weekend surcharge. When he arrived, determined pretty quickly that the door was just stuck and that the opener was mechanically sound. Offered to do maintenance/lubrication at a discounted price, which I gladly accepted. Works perfectly now. I really appreciate that they did not try to push some kind of expensive repair that wasn't needed. Contractor was knowledgeable, very friendly and efficient."
"They came out and gave estimates of different options on garage doors (we had one that was cracked and needed replaced) and we wanted to replace the rest to match. They gave us options for the look, insulation and price range that we wanted. They were very professional, arrived on time and answered all of my questions. When it came time to do the installation, the installer was very professional and stayed until the job was complete. I would definitely use them again if my openers ever need to be replaced as well. "
"Not only were they fast and friendly, they replaced our garage door (previously uninsulated) with an even better one (insulated) for a lower price than we had paid the other company! They were understanding and prepared for the job. I could not be happier with Family Garage Door LLC."
"5 years ago, we had our basement floor epoxied, and garage for replaced. Every guest that sees our floor, loves it, and obviously gets our recommendation for James and team. Now, we are looking to get our garage floor and back patio fine, in the same manner and will be working with James again. Can't wait!"
"James was on vacation in our area when I mentioned that our garage door opener wasn't working. He took time out to help us in spite of being on vacation. Our door has worked ever since. He definitely knows his stuff! Give him a try - you won't be disappointed!"

Whether a garage or an extra room adds more value depends on several factors, including local market demand, location, and typical buyer preferences. Generally, added living space is highly desirable to most buyers, which can make an extra room more valuable than a traditional garage. The return on investment (ROI) often depends on the utility of the new space; for example, an additional bedroom is typically more valuable than a new living room, and converting a garage into a bedroom with an en-suite bathroom will likely add the most value. A well-designed extra room can also serve specific needs, such as a home office, guest room, or entertainment space. However, adding a garage may be more valuable in areas with limited street parking or harsh climates where protecting a vehicle is a priority.
Yes, with sustainable wood products and high-efficiency lighting options.
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.
Always lock the door that separates your garage and your home. However, garage doors are seldom entrance points for thieves. It takes quite a bit of work and noise to pry open a garage door, so thieves often opt for windows or unlocked doors. Unless they have access to the motor which controls the door, as long as it's functioning properly you shouldn't worry too much about it.
Yes, upgrading a garage can increase home value. Simply having a garage on your property, whether it’s attached or detached, makes your home more valuable. A garage remodel can give you around 80% ROI, though it depends on the type of remodel you do. Converting your garage to a living space can provide significantly higher returns.
