Q: What is the average lifespan of garage doors?

• <div><p>A garage door should last 30 years, give or take, before it needs replacing, so your panels should last for around that long as well. However, you should replace your garage door panels sooner if the door doesn&rsquo;t function smoothly if one of the panels gets visibly damaged, or if an issue with a panel is creating a security issue.</p></div>

Q: Will a 20x20 garage fit 2 cars?

• <div><p>The smallest size a standard 2-car garage can be is 20 feet by 20 feet, so at these dimensions, you could reasonably expect to fit two cars inside. However, it&rsquo;s going to be a tight fit, especially if you have larger SUVs or pickup trucks. For smaller cars, 20 x 20 should be plenty for parking and some space to maneuver around the cars. A larger garage size would be better to ensure you have room to open the doors and transport groceries or other items around the cars.</p></div>

Q: Do I need a garage door opener?

• <div><p>You don&rsquo;t need a garage door opener unless you need or desire the convenience they offer. While you may be able to open some garage doors manually, having a garage door opener makes life a lot easier. There is an exception, though&mdash;a motorized opener is an absolute must if you have a two-car garage (or larger), as the door will be too heavy for the average person to lift on their own.</p></div>

Q: How long does a garage floor sealer last on average?

• <div><p>Garage floor sealers last anywhere from one to 10 years on average, depending on the type of sealer you use and the traffic it&rsquo;s exposed to. Acrylic sealers have the shortest longevity, whereas most other options can last anywhere from five to 10 years. If you use an acrylic sealant to protect against stains, reapply every one to two years. Reapply other types of concrete sealers every five years for the best results and maximum protection.</p></div>

Q: What are the alternatives to a driveway gate?

• <div><p>A traditional driveway gate isn&rsquo;t your only option when installing a barricade in front of your driveway. A <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-of-security-gates.htm">security gate</a> like a swing gate, double swing gate, bi-folding gate, vertical gate, or pivot gate could work just as well as your driveway gate&mdash;if not better for your home depending on which qualities you&rsquo;re after. Like sliding driveway gates, many of these alternatives work with automatic features that simplify entering and exiting your property.</p></div>

Daniel did a great job installing doors and drawers in my custom kitchen and bathroom cabinets. He was careful not to scratch the finish, installed and adjusted hinges and drawer slides so that everything hung and worked properly. He installed the hardware as well. His work was excellent.

After buying a kitchen faucet I found that I was too creaky and stiff to get under the sink myself. Leonard answered the phone and was here within an hour. His quoted rate is $85 per hour and I expected about an hour's work. It took two, mostly because the faucet I supplied was not very good,...
