How often should you clean your garage?

• <div><p>How often you clean your garage depends on what you do in there and its overall level of disarray. You should clean the garage once every season, though some experts say every month. Decluttering and <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-often-deep-clean-house.htm">deep-cleaning</a> once a year is enough for garages used primarily for storage, but if you do car maintenance or other hands-on project in the space, you’ll need to clean more frequently. </p></div>

Q: Do insulated garage doors add value to a home?

• <div><p>All garage doors, particularly newly installed models, add value to your home. Higher-quality and higher-priced doors increase the ROI, so a well-insulated custom garage door increases the value of your home more than a poorly-insulated stock model. Updating a garage door boasts the second-highest home improvement ROI, at nearly 95%.</p></div>

Q: What's the lifespan of garage door springs?

• <div><p>The lifespan of garage door springs depends on the type and quality of the springs, the physical environment, and the level of use. In general, properly installed and maintained springs open and close a garage door around 10,000 times . That equates to around seven years if you open and close the door about four times a day. If you use your garage door more frequently, live in a very cold or humid environment that promotes corrosion or rust, or have a very heavy door, your springs may wear out faster and require replacing sooner.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take a painter to paint a garage door?

• <div><p>While it depends on door condition, the painter&rsquo;s level of expertise, and weather conditions, it&rsquo;s safe to set aside two to three days to complete this project, especially if you anticipate adding multiple coats of paint, which can take eight to 12 hours to dry. Your professional should be able to provide an estimate for the project timeline.</p></div>

Q: Do I need to prime a metal garage door before painting?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s usually a good idea to use a metal primer before painting a metal garage door, and, even if you do, you&rsquo;ll need a paint that&rsquo;s specifically designed to coat metal for the best results. Metal primer helps create a good surface for the paint to stick to your metal garage door, and it will help prevent bubbling, chipping, and peeling after it dries. It&rsquo;s a bit more expensive to prime your door before painting, but it&rsquo;s usually worthwhile, as the paint will last longer.</p></div>

Overall experience is VERY UNSATISFACORY. The owner/operator "lady" was very unprofessional. When we initially contacted them for our garage door repair, she was very prompt. We paid advance for parts and very told 2 weeks. 4 weeks and 3 phone calls later, there was no promptness or...
