"Chris and his crew exceeded expectations. They completed the job on time and on budget. The floor looks amazing! They were on the job site on time every day; Chris is accessible and returns calls, he keeps the customer informed throughout the project. It was refreshing to have a builder do as they promised, it is hard to find that level of service. I would absolutely recommend Tri-County Builders for any home improvement project you are planning."

"Steve and his team did an excellent job on our basement remodel, and we would absolutely hire them again. From the start, Steve was professional, responsive, and easy to work with. He helped us navigate a complicated insurance process with patience and clear explanations, which made a stressful situation much easier to manage. Once that was handled, Steve worked closely with us on the design and layout, making sure the space actually fit how we live. He didn’t push generic solutions and paid close attention to the details throughout the build. Communication was consistent, follow-through was strong, and nothing was left unfinished. What sets Steve apart is his enthusiasm for custom work. He combines creative design ideas with practical construction experience, which made a big difference when solving layout challenges and building custom features. The finished basement is now one of our favorite spaces in the house. We recommend Steve without hesitation for work big and small!"

"Lucas was able to install a bathroom fan for us, install a vanity, paint our basement ceilings, install lights in our basement, and complete a closet install in our upstairs bedroom. This work was completed within a timely manner and Lucas was responsive and communicative throughout the entire process. He was very thorough in his work as well."

"This was one of the most pleasantly surprising repairman episodes I have ever had. It started when I called the company and the person I talked to understood immediately what my problem was, and said he would have "Brian" out to fix it within 2 hours. Brian showed up right on time after giving me a call to say exactly when he would be coming. He assessed my situation, had a better idea than I did for what was needed, and he promptly set about fixing it. He explained everything as he went along, taking pride in what he was doing. When he finished that, he did a complete inspection of my garage door operations, explaining to me what he was looking for. He sprayed things that needed it, and explained to me what to spray, and which places should get silicone spray and which WD 40. The work was guaranteed. The bill was very fair, and my $10 off coupon was cheerfully accepted."

"Gary was responsive, gave a free estimate that was fair for the work we wanted done. He completed the work as asked in the timeframe expected. He is very knowledgeable and gives great recommendations for completing the work in a cost-effective way as well. We also called again for him to quote another problem we had, and he gave us a suggestion for how we could fix the problem ourselves at a lower cost. He's honest, reliable and does great work. We will definitely have him back for more work in the future!"

Garages questions, answered by experts

While it depends on door condition, the painter’s level of expertise, and weather conditions, it’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.

Always lock the door that separates your garage and your home. However, garage doors are seldom entrance points for thieves. It takes quite a bit of work and noise to pry open a garage door, so thieves often opt for windows or unlocked doors. Unless they have access to the motor which controls the door, as long as it's functioning properly you shouldn't worry too much about it.

If you plan on heating your garage, you must install a vapor barrier when drywalling the garage. A vapor barrier protects your garage from frost and mold that can occur through condensation. If your garage is unheated, you don't need to install a vapor barrier. The only exception is if you regularly crank the heat in your car before getting in it. In this case, you may still want to install a vapor barrier, as your car can heat your garage.

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.

You should lube your garage door components every three to six months depending on how frequently you open and close the door. Lubricant helps keep garage door components operating smoothly for longer; you can expect a much longer lifespan out of a garage door when you properly care for it, including frequent lubrication. Regular maintenance is much more affordable than the cost of replacing a garage door prematurely.
