"Rafe Courville built a 22ftx24ft pavilion for us a few months ago. From the concrete floor to the 20ft tall pitched steel roof, it has been just what we wanted. The wooden post, beams, and railing are ideal for our needs. Very satisfied! He also built a 500ft wooden fence for us. We had him back recently to repair a hole in our main building's roof. Also very satisfied. Good price for the both. Rafe will be replacing all the cabinets in our kitchen in the near future."

"Cannot express the deep, deep gratitude for Mr. Demoine and his fantastic, expert crew! I contacted him as well as several other roofing companies immediately after the storm passed on Aug 30. He called back w/n hours to determine status and next steps. He told me he would be over as soon as he could get gasoline for his trucks; he was waiting on a promise from Mayor Cantrell to Provide gasoline two emergency and necessary companies. As he waited throughout the day for gasoline so he can get to me he called me back no less than FOUR TIMES to provide me with a status update! Who DOES that?! How many professionals have you worked with who have been so conscientious and so reliable? Well, D & D Construction destroyed and devastated that assumption. They were able to get to me on Tuesday, Aug 31 and immediately got to it and “got ‘er done!” They were so conscientious, thorough and obviously skilled that I told Mr. Demoine before he left that I had several minor and major project renovations that I had started prep for several years ago, but did not actually begin b/c I had not found the “right” company to do the work. Needless to say, I believe I have found the right company! Frankly, between me and all the great friends, colleagues and Veterans that I know who need reputable, ethical and professional grade construction work, I could keep his company employed for generations! I am very satisfied and impressed w/D and D Construction and have already recommended them to two other close friends who need exactly the same kind of expert care, concern and work ethic!"

Garages questions, answered by experts

A garage ceiling needs a vapor barrier if it’s a heated garage or if you’re installing insulation in the ceiling. Without a vapor barrier, you risk moisture issues and mold growth. If you have an unheated garage and don’t plan on installing insulation that could get wet and harbor mold, the ceiling doesn't need a vapor barrier.

For a garage to be included in a home's official square footage, it must qualify as livable space. This generally means it needs to be attached to the home and have permanent finishings like proper insulation, finished walls and ceilings, and adequate ventilation. To be considered livable year-round, it should also have heating and cooling. The specific legal requirements can vary by location, but if a garage is converted into a finished room meeting these criteria, it may be counted toward the total square footage.

It’s best to prevent cold air from entering your garage through the space underneath the garage door. Stop cold air in its tracks by adding or replacing the weatherstripping underneath the door seal. You can also add weatherstripping along the sides and top of the garage door to prevent air leakage, and it’s a relatively easy DIY fix.

The best way to prevent your garage door from freezing is to install a permanent source of heat in the garage. You can have a professional tie in your main heating system or install a ductless mini split as a standalone heating solution. You can also insulate the garage to prevent temperatures from dropping to the point that the door freezes shut.

The best method for painting a garage door depends on the door's design and the finish you want to achieve. For the most professional-looking finish, especially on doors with panels or intricate details, a paint sprayer is an excellent choice. It can easily get into hard-to-reach places and provide a smooth, even coat.

If you don't have a sprayer, or if your door is flat, a combination of a roller and a brush is the most effective approach. Use a roller for the large, flat sections to cover the area quickly and efficiently. For the best results, experts recommend a roller with a nap between ⅜ and ¾ inches thick; natural fibers can also help ensure an even coat.

A brush is essential for handling the finer details. Use it to paint grooves, angles, small panels, and the edges of the door where you need more control.

Regardless of the tools you use, it's a good idea to step back after the main application to review your work and use a detail brush to touch up any missed spots.
