"Clinton Ashe of TimberWolf Contracting was immediately responsive to my initial email and provided a prompt and detailed estimate for repairs. We live in Italy currently and have renters in our home in CT and he worked with them to accommodate their schedule. His expertise and skills are appreciated by our family as well as the renters in the home. He provided regular updates and suggested items that needed repair which was very welcome as our distance from the project limits our ability to know the state of the home. I have recommended him and will continue to recommend and utilize his services for any future projects with the home. It is a special kind of relief to have found a skilled craftsman who so painstakingly coordinates with his clients and I feel so grateful to have found him."

"We hired Gove Restoration (Adam Gove) to split a larger room into a library and a mudroom. As part of the renovation, we had to move heat and electrical, close off two existing doors (one to the garage), open up walls, create a new opening, take out an old intercom, create a new entry from the garage, install built-in cubbies, and install both a hardwood and a tile floor. The area wasn't huge - but it was a total transformation. Every person that worked under Adam was professional, hard-working, and went above and beyond. Our built-ins (Tom at Village Cabinets) are beautiful. Warren, who did the trim and floors, was amazing. Their plumber came back twice in one day because we noticed when purging the system to move the heat our daughters room was too hot (totally unrelated to the project and an issue with the house). He found the valve and re-calibrated. It's obvious that Gove Restoration takes pride in their work and oversees *every* aspect of the project. I can't remember a day that Adam wasn't at our house (or a day that he didn't come at the end of the day to clean). He went over every detail of the project with us, and gave us suggestions for picking out the things that we needed to (e.g. recommendations tile sizes, patterns, etc). It should be noted that we were 2/3rds of the way through this project when the COVID-19 pandemic hit high gear. We made the decision to finish the project (same skeleton crew that had been in our house), and Adam made it so that it was completed literally a few days later (at least a week and a half ahead of schedule). They were *beyond* accommodating to our requests - I still have the image of Adam, and the sheet rocker entering with a disinfectant wipe in one hand and a vacuum or pail in another. They put up plastic sheeting and were in constant communication. I can without a doubt say that we would have NEVER had the project finished if it weren't with Gove. And I can 110% say that I will choose them for our next renovation project. As they say, you get what you pay for, and we really feel like we got the best."

Garages questions, answered by experts

Garages are often equipped with lighting, electrical boxes, and sometimes even heating and cooling, while carports rarely have utilities. A garage is an enclosed structure that can lock and usually has an automatic door. A carport is often wood or plastic and is designed only to protect a car from elements like rain, snow, and hail. Carports are commonly seen on property where an attached garage is unfeasible but can be a cost-effective solution for car protection for anyone without a completed garage. 

If push comes to shove, and you need to manually open your garage door, then you should be able to do so. To manually open your garage door, first, make sure that the door is in the down position. You’ll need to unlock your garage door opener’s emergency release mechanism, which is typically a red robe that you can find on the carriage. Once you’ve pulled the cord, you can manually lower the door.

If your garage door is stuck in an open position, consider contacting a professional to safely release the opener.

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.

Yes, professionals offer design services that ensure cohesive appearances.

Yes, a single garage door with an 8-foot width is considered standard. This will be the size needed if you are upgrading a garage door in nearly any standard-sized residential garage. If you are building a garage from scratch that you intend to use for parking a large truck, SUV, or RV, you can consider extending the width to 10 feet to make parking easier.
