Q: How many square feet is an average two-car garage?

• <div><p>An <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/2-car-garage-size.htm">average two-car garage size</a> is about 580 square feet. A common dimension for a two-car garage is 24-feet deep by 24-feet wide, as measured by the interior width. However, the manufacturing of larger vehicle sizes means many homeowners want to build bigger garages. It&rsquo;s not uncommon for a two-car garage to be 30-feet by 30-feet.</p></div>

Q: Are prefab garages worth it?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s better to build a garage than buy and install a prefabricated one. You can save money by purchasing a prefabricated metal garage kit for between <b>$4,000 and $11,000</b>. However, this does not include the price of labor and permits, which can account for more than half of the project cost. Building a new garage over buying a prefab garage will add more value to your home and will last longer, so it&rsquo;s more cost-effective over time to build a new garage.</p></div>

Q: How long does garage door insulation last?

• <div><p>Garage door <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-does-a-house-last.htm">insulation can last</a> anywhere from 20 to 100 years depending on the type of insulation. Cellulose has the shortest lifespan coming in at between 20 and 30 years, while spray foam, mineral wool, and fiberglass can last between 80 and 100 years with proper maintenance. </p><p>Humidity plays a role in how long more susceptible insulation materials&mdash;like fiberglass&mdash;last. Once fiberglass batts reach the 15-year mark, you'll need to routinely inspect your insulation to ensure that it is in mint order.</p></div>

Q: Will a 20x20 garage fit 2 cars?

• <div><p>The smallest size a standard 2-car garage can be is 20 feet by 20 feet, so at these dimensions, you could reasonably expect to fit two cars inside. However, it&rsquo;s going to be a tight fit, especially if you have larger SUVs or pickup trucks. For smaller cars, 20 x 20 should be plenty for parking and some space to maneuver around the cars. A larger garage size would be better to ensure you have room to open the doors and transport groceries or other items around the cars.</p></div>

Q: Can I use WD-40 on a garage door?

• <div><p>While you can technically use WD-40 to lube a garage door, it is not the best option since the oil it leaves behind can attract dirt. Instead, go to the hardware store and locate a lithium- or silicone- based garage grease. You can also search for garage door lubricant online; just make sure you get one that is made with lithium or silicone. </p></div>

I initially wanted to have a deck built but then after all the bids came in, I changed my mind and decided to build a garage instead. Deck Doctors kept right up with the change. After I accepted their bid, they started shortly after. Great guys to work with. They do good work.

"Pleasant to deal with: From the moment they stopped by to check out the project. Started measuring on the spot. I received an estimate within days. Once a date was scheduled, they promptly arrived. They removed cedar shake shingles, installed the vinyl, removed all debris--all in one day. I am very pleased with their work. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Elite Contracting."

We called the company on a Sunday morning to see of they could do something to stop the leak in our metal roof.

They actually answered the phone and offered to help! Mr. Farmer was at our house within the hour and found the leak right away.

He had to climb up on the metal roof in the rain and replace a leaking screw.

Mr. Farmer was very professional and very courteous and completed the job quickly.
