"Tried several contractors, these guys are the best. Great communication, detailed contact prior to starting outlining scope of work, so we knew we were on the same page with everything that needed to be done. Extremely hard working, kept to schedule even though we threw some curve balls their way. Knowledgeable, remedied previous contractors mistakes in structural additions. Very fair and honest, went above and beyond to change several things that we changed throughout the process. Fair price and good, transparent accounting of materials and costs. They do it all, structural, shelving, electrical, paint.. and anything they did not have immediate expertise in, Rus had a guy or two we got quotes from (tile, etc.). We will definitely call these guys again with any projects we need done. Highly recommend. Good job!!"

"Dylan was the GC for an ADU that I had built on my property. He was very professional and built the whole ADU faster than anticipated. The quality of his tradesmen is excellent. He is friendly and has excellent communication skills. We would nightly recommend Dylan for any construction project big or small."

"Jake and his StraightLine Design family did a full exterior remodel on our North End Boise home. The result is an amazing 1910 home that has been restored to near-original condition. StraightLine did the roof, gutters, siding, and windows. They sourced period appropriate wood siding and shingles and we could not be happier with the project. Jake at StraightLine is incredibly responsive 24/7 and handled all challenges with utmost professionalism and attention to detail. Honestly, the StraightLine team is 5-star and I highly recommend them for any project!"

"We hired AKAL construction llc (aka ASV cabinets) to install cement board type siding on our house beacuse they were the most competitively priced. Sometimes when you go with the lowest bid, you "get what you pay for". But these guys were TOP NOTCH! They were on time, communicative, and worked fast and hard, and cleaned up everyday that they were here! They were also patient and understanding with change orders and material shortages. We will definitely use them again in the future and recommend them to anyone looking for siding or any other trade work."

"Chris Homeyer, owner, has done a number of projects for me. Complete framing of new construction. Window replacements, add on. Complete Kitchen remodel. Bottom line is he is the first person I call when I have a client or a personal project for him to do. I swear there is nothing he can’t do and do professionally. He even drove to Sacramento CA and did a major project for my daughter!!! I could not recommend him higher."

Garages questions, answered by experts

The best paint for a garage door depends on the door's material, the desired finish, and durability requirements.

Paint Type

The type of paint you need often depends on the material of your garage door:

  • Aluminum Doors: Typically require exterior acrylic paint.

  • Vinyl and Wood Doors: Exterior latex paint is usually recommended.

  • Steel Doors: Professionals often use latex or oil-based paint.

You can choose between acrylic, oil-based, and latex paints. Acrylic paint offers excellent UV and weather resistance and dries quickly, but may require multiple coats. Oil-based paints are very durable and may only need one coat, but they dry slowly and emit more VOCs. Latex paint is available in a wide range of colors and is forgiving to apply, but it can crack over time and may require a primer for even coverage. For an eco-friendly option, consider acrylic latex paint.

Paint Finish

You have a wide variety of finishes to choose from, including semi-gloss, gloss, satin, eggshell, and matte. The choice is largely based on personal preference, but many people opt for a semi-gloss or gloss finish. These finishes dry to a hard, durable surface that stands up well to humidity and regular wear and tear.

Regardless of the type or finish, it's crucial to use a quality exterior paint that can withstand the elements. Using a primer before painting will ensure better adhesion and a more even, long-lasting result.

Christmas lights and decorations are prone to heat and humidity damage, so keep this in mind if you store them in the garage. Put the lights in plastic bins with tight-fitting lids to keep moisture out to keep them safe until next year. 

Wood, steel, fiberglass, and aluminum are among the top building materials for a garage. Wood is highly customizable, naturally insulative, and durable in mild climates but can be expensive. Steel is lightweight, low-maintenance, and cost-effective, but it’s susceptible to rust. Fiberglass is low-maintenance and doesn’t shrink or expand in changing temperatures, but it can become brittle and crack from prolonged high winds and sun exposure.

Unlike steel, aluminum isn’t susceptible to rust and is low-maintenance, but its ultra-light weight makes it less durable than some materials, and it’s susceptible to saltwater damage, making it a poor choice for coastal homes.

You do not need to drywall over most types of garage insulation. However, doing so can increase noise reduction, make the space more attractive, and keep children and pets from touching harmful fiberglass insulation. If you’re using cellulose or some other type of blown-in insulation (fiberglass and mineral wool are common), you will need drywall to contain the insulation material.

An insulated garage door is a great long-term investment if it’s within your budget. They save energy and give the door year-round usability. In other words, the door pays for itself after a few nasty winters. Most modern garage doors already have a fair amount of insulation, so look into those options if you don’t feel comfortable splurging.
