Q: What kind of paint do you use for garage doors?

• <div><p>You have a few options of <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/best-garage-door-paint.htm">paint for garage doors</a>. Acrylic paint offers excellent UV- and weatherproof resistance, easily adheres to surfaces, and dries quickly. However, it has limited color options available and requires multiple coats. Oil-based paints last long, are easy to apply, and may only need one coat, but dry slowly and emit more VOCs. Latex offers superior color reflection, available in a wide range of colors, and it&rsquo;s highly forgiving. However, latex can crack and peel over time and may need a primer for even coverage.</p></div>

Q: Are there downsides to garage screens?

• <div><p>While the benefits of garage door screens usually outweigh the downsides, there are some cons to installing one. First off, they can be quite expensive, especially if you&rsquo;re having a professional install a retracting screen or a custom size screen. Second, they let fresh air and natural light in, but they also don&rsquo;t provide the same privacy from people in the neighborhood that a solid door does. As you might guess, screens also won&rsquo;t <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-insulate-a-garage.htm">insulate your garage</a>, so they&rsquo;re often not usable in colder weather.</p></div>

Q: Can paint protect my garage floor?

• <div><p>Yes. Paint will protect your garage floors, making them more resistant to water, mold, mildew, and oil stains. Depending on your paint choice, painted surfaces are easier to clean and maintain.</p></div>

Q: Is a garage considered living space?

• <div><p>In some cases, a detached garage can be considered extra living space, but you will need to gain permission and comply with your local building code. Depending on where you live, you may need permits for a variety of installations, including electrical work, plumbing, and structural work. Many homeowners make the mistake of converting a garage into a living space without acquiring permits, which can result in hefty fines and even the removal of your hard work. Furthermore, a detached garage doesn&rsquo;t add to the livable square footage of your home when it&rsquo;s time to sell.</p></div>

Q: Where do you start with garage remodels?

• <div><p>The first place you start with any garage remodel, regardless of the project, is with repairs. You want a stable foundation to avoid problems from arising down the road. Once any necessary repairs are addressed, you&rsquo;ll want to move on to layout changes, like installing new walls, running new electric, plumbing, and HVAC to the space, if required, and then finishing work.</p></div>

The job was started and completed in a timely and professional manner. We were very pleased with the work done. The new doors were a double French door and a patio door. They removed the doors and replaced the new ones. The price was within my budget i would use them for future projects.
