Q: What are the dangers of using budget garage flooring products?

• <div><p>As with anything you buy, be wary of prices that seem too good to be true. Some low-cost flooring products can contain chemicals that release harmful VOCs (volatile organic compounds) in the form of fumes that can be inhaled or dust that can cause skin conditions.</p><p>Even good-quality products can be dangerous for DIY-ers who don&rsquo;t take proper precautions. Always carefully read manufacturer instructions and wear the recommended protective gear when working with paints and other chemicals. You can also hire a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/garage-floor-coatings/">local garage flooring pro</a> with the experience and equipment needed to perform the installation safely with no lingering fumes or debris.</p></div>

Q: How long do hardwood floors typically last?

• <div><p>With proper care and maintenance, hardwood floors can last for decades or even centuries. Solid hardwood and tropical wood, in particular, have the potential to be sanded and refinished multiple times, extending their lifespan. However, the longevity of hardwood floors also depends on factors such as the wood species, quality of installation, and the level of foot traffic in that area of your home. </p></div>

Q: Can mites live in your bed?

• <div><p>Dust mites feed on dead skin cells, which means your bed is a haven for them. They also like the warmth and humidity in your mattress because that is the climate required for them to survive. That&rsquo;s why it&rsquo;s vital to vacuum your mattress and regularly wash your linens to keep mites from living in your bed. </p></div>

Jon, Ler and Emanuel L were the crew who installed 5 piers on the corner of my house. They were very efficient, and left things looking exactly as before they did the job. I received updates as their work progressed.
