"A couple of upstairs water pipes froze and burst in Dec22 gushing water over an upstairs bedroom and downstairs ceilings atop a bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, hallway, laundry room, and garage. Mark Crossland came out in Jan and gave an estimate for repair and also advised on what should be done to correctly repair the areas. His bid was spot on for total damage, and made his company available when I received the insurance money. He removed all the damaged ceiling and wall areas, and replaced sheetrock and taping with painting the areas to look like nothing had happened. When we discovered the cause of the cold air coming into the house was an unhooked bathroom exhaust fan pipe, he agreed to replace the exhaust fan/light and install a new one instead of just reattaching the old pipe. As work progressed he was very clear on what needed to be done and found some issues with other problems in the construction of the house and advised on improvements. This house was a quick build in 1998 so the original builder had cut corners in the construction. His and the team from Carpenter's Kids where extremely knowledgeable and had a great work ethic. They showed up on time every day and worked hard at getting the damage repaired. The extra items I had needed to be done for some time where agreed to without hesitation. The extra things included reflooring two upstairs rooms from carpet to laminate, replacing two toilets, replacing both bathrooms exhaust fans, and insulating the flooring between the lower and upper floors. I couldn't be happier with them as a company and individuals doing my repairs, and our house has gained even more value from their expert building knowledge."

"They built a 1600 sq ft home for me and done a fantastic job from start to finish. Attention to detail and communication was the very best. They have also done some remodel work for me on my flip houses, also installed a new roof on a different home. I would highly recommended Darrin and his crew to anyone!"

"Kyle responded quickly to my request for an estimate. I sent a picture of what we needed fixed. He gave me a reasonable quote and came out the same day and got it done. He repaired a section of vinyl siding that had come loose and ripped off in a storm. He fixed that and then proactively repaired and reinforced some other areas that were likely to come loose down the road. Great work."

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.

Wood, steel, fiberglass, and aluminum are among the top building materials for a garage. Wood is highly customizable, naturally insulative, and durable in mild climates but can be expensive. Steel is lightweight, low-maintenance, and cost-effective, but it’s susceptible to rust. Fiberglass is low-maintenance and doesn’t shrink or expand in changing temperatures, but it can become brittle and crack from prolonged high winds and sun exposure.

Unlike steel, aluminum isn’t susceptible to rust and is low-maintenance, but its ultra-light weight makes it less durable than some materials, and it’s susceptible to saltwater damage, making it a poor choice for coastal homes.

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.

It is possible for a car to interfere with a garage door opener, but the interference will most likely be caused by any onboard electronics in this scenario. If you encounter this problem, try parking a safe distance away from the garage door and turn off the car’s electronic equipment.

Single and double garage doors have pros and cons, but it's all based on personal preference regarding which one is better for you. Two single garage doors give you more control over airflow entering your garage but double the system, which means double the upkeep cost. 

On the other hand, two-car double garage doors are more convenient but can stop you from leaving if a piece of hardware malfunctions.
