"We had a great experience working with Top Bros construction and remodeling. They fully removed our tile and wood flooring and installed LVP that we had provided. They also installed new trim and baseboards throughout, which look great. They were timely and efficient. We are very happy with the outcome!"

"Mal was exceedingly professional throughout the process of getting my mother's home re-sided and on the market for sale.  I think the new siding helped us sell the home in only one day!  The transformation was amazing and it added immense curb appeal. 

His employees are very efficient and equally skilled.  They did all the work without leaving one single nail pop anywhere in the drywall.  That was surprising considering how many cosmetic improvements we had to do to the interior of our home after our siding was replaced.  

Mal was very accommodating with respect to the timing of the work and even had his guys come back to adjust the siding after we had our porch mudjacked.  They made everything look perfect.  The home was well insulated very carefully prior to the siding installation.  They sealed up an old window in the garage and sided over it-lending to a more aesthetically pleasing and professional look overall.

Mal was very helpful long after the fact- several months after the job was completed.  He helped me order 3 more pieces of siding so that I could fix a spot of the house where a sloppy plumber routed a sump pump discharge.  

The house looks perfect!  I really don't think we would've sold it so quickly, had we not invested the money to have the siding replaced.  Mal's outfit is very honest and professional.  He is transparent and easy to get to if you have questions.  

Exceptional job all around!"

"We purchased a new home that did not have a garage. We received several estimates to build a garage from the ground up, and Danley's Garage World impressed us most with their knowledge and responsiveness. Their estimate game out in the middle of three, and they were flexible and considerate of our needs. My husband, a contractor in his own right, was off during the time they built the garage and watched their work every step of the way. He was happy with the labor and the materials used. Our garage is exceedingly well made. The time from estimate to permit to foundation to construction was 7 weeks. That is amazing. One of the other two companies wasn't sure they were going to be able to complete the project in this season. Of course, with every big project there are minor hiccups along the way. I expected that. What I really appreciated that whenever I contacted our Danley Garage World representative, he responded within a few hours. In each and every instance, the issue was resolved to my satisfaction. We are really really happy with the outcome. Having done a great deal of research, we know the price was on target."

"Mike and his team did an excellent job from beginning to end! He went over some pricing on different types and let US decide, but also gave his advice. Due to weather, the project had to wait a little longer, but Mike kept in contact and did what he said he was going to do in the initial meeting. We have a very sloping yard and Mike wasn't happy with one of the gate placements and came back out and changed it to make it right. I definitely recommend using Tristar Landscape and Fencing!"

Garages questions, answered by experts

If your garage door seems to freeze every winter, you can try rubbing silicone spray or petroleum jelly around the edges and rollers of the garage door. However, it’s a good idea to avoid direct application of silicone sprays like WD40 to rubber edges, which could damage them over time. A garage door that frequently freezes shut could need a full replacement, especially if it’s showing signs of rust or other wear and tear.

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.

Ensures adherence to local building codes and customized designs to fit personal needs.

Annually, to check for wear, lubricate parts, and ensure safe operation.

Garage door sensors work by using infrared beams to detect objects in the door’s path. One sensor sends a beam while the other receives it. When the beam is broken—say, by your car or anything else—the sensors signal the door to stop or reverse. It’s all about safety and making sure nothing gets trapped under the door. If they’re misaligned, the beam doesn’t connect, and the garage door might stay open or close regardless of obstructions.
