Does a garage count toward square footage?

• <div><p>A garage only counts toward the official square footage of a house if it’s livable. The exact legal requirements for <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/is-garage-considered-living-space.htm">what’s considered living space</a> can vary by location, but heating and ventilation are often required for it to be counted.

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: How do I stop cold air from coming under my garage door?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;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&rsquo;s a relatively easy DIY fix.</p></div>

Q: Should garage doors be painted flat or gloss?

• <div><p>You can use a wide variety of <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/best-sheen-exterior-paint.htm">finishes for garage doors</a>, and the choice comes down to personal preference. You can use a semi-gloss, eggshell enamel sheen, matte, or satin enamel. You may even prefer a solid color wood stain. The key is finding an exterior paint that can withstand the elements your garage door is so frequently exposed to.</p></div>

Q: Where do you spray garage door lubricant?

• <div><p>You should spray garage door lubricant on its important mechanical parts, including the hinges, rollers, springs, bearing plates, lock, armbar, and, potentially, rail. Do not lube the tracks, though you should clean these regularly for optimal performance. </p></div>
