"I highly recommend Noah Garvey and his crew. Very knowledgeable, accommodating and affordable. From the start, I felt comfortable with Noah due to his easy going and personable nature. Noah was extremely thorough and kept me well informed at all times of changes in schedule and options of alternative materials. Noah and his team were extremely professionalâ ¦ they always showed up on time and cleaned their work area after every day of the project. I look forward to working with them again with future projects."

"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."

Garages questions, answered by experts

There are various companies and garage doors to fit your needs. So, here are a few tips for buying a garage door for you and your family:

  • Figure out and stick to your budget

  • Go over each garage door material and how it relates to your climate and needs

  • Determine if you want an insulated garage door

The ideal temperature for your garage in the winter is between 40 and 68 degrees Fahrenheit. Maintaining a minimum temperature of at least 40 to 50 degrees is crucial to prevent pipes, liquids, and other items from freezing. Low temperatures can also drain your car battery, so keeping the garage stable is vital for your vehicle. While the lower end of the range protects your belongings, the higher end is based on your personal preference for a comfortable space. If you struggle to keep the temperature from dropping below 40 degrees, consider installing a garage heater.

It is highly recommended to prime a metal surface, like a garage door, before painting. Primer creates a stable surface for the paint to adhere to, which helps prevent bubbling, chipping, and peeling. This ensures the paint job will last longer. Painting metal without a primer can lead to poor adhesion and allow rust to bleed through the new paint. If the surface already has rust spots, you can cover them with a zinc chromate primer before applying the final coat. While priming adds an extra step and cost, it is a worthwhile investment for a durable, long-lasting finish. For best results, also use a paint specifically designed for metal.

Getting a garage door tune-up is worth it. Tune-ups are a form of preventative maintenance that help extend a garage door's lifespan and prevent dangerous issues, like worn springs or misaligned sensors. The cost to get a garage tune-up is far less than letting problems get out of hand and causing costly repairs—or worse—injuries.

Most garage doors come with their own set of tracks and rollers from the manufacturer, so you don’t need to buy tracks separately.
