"I am perplexed and frustrated that the contact person from the company did not apparently want to work with me to find the source of the leak. Initially, without examining the roof, he said he thought the step flashing on the garage roof needed replaced. That was a logical guess and the work was done in a timely manner. When the leak persisted and I had already paid 700 dollars, the same contact person backed away from pursuing the matter saying I should "check with my neighbors " in my condo community to see what they found as the source of water leakage (I mentioned other neighbors complained of leaks). I then appealed to the company's president on voice mail and a different comtact person called the next day and came and inspected the work which their company had done on replacing the step flashing. This person said he saw " voids" and reapplied new stepflashing for no extra charge. I continued to have the water leakage problem and I was turned back over to the original contact person who said he "would be happy" to help me and would be out in a couple of weeks. He did not come out so I contacted him again and he said he would "definitely" come out. That was over 6 weeks ago and he never called me back. I got frustrated and called a different company. The worker went on top of my roof with a hose spraying water on different areas and we found a window to be the source of the leak. I don't know why Bradford Xteriors (or at least my contact person ) did not want to work with me to discover the source of my problem. I hired them because of their good ratings. I would not hire them again."

Garages questions, answered by experts

It’s possible to use a torch to melt ice on your garage door, but we don’t recommend it. It’s very easy to bring the flame too close to the door, which can melt the weather stripping or even the garage door itself. You’ll melt ice quickly with a torch, but the damage you’re likely to cause can end up costing you a few hundred dollars to fix, which isn’t worth it. Instead, we recommend pouring hot water over the frozen area or using a less intense heat source, like a hair dryer or space heater.

You’ll usually need to prime a garage floor before painting—especially if the floor is unpainted. Garage floors are made from concrete, which is porous and produces dust. The dust can contaminate the paint and cause issues with adherence. 

Primer creates a barrier and gives you a clean surface to work on. It also minimizes absorption to help give you an even, pro-looking paint job. Make sure you choose a primer that’s specifically designed to cover concrete flooring.

Start by assessing your needs, setting a realistic budget, creating design plans, and selecting materials. Consulting professionals for advice can streamline the process.

Whether a garage or an extra room adds more value depends on several factors, including local market demand, location, and typical buyer preferences. Generally, added living space is highly desirable to most buyers, which can make an extra room more valuable than a traditional garage. The return on investment (ROI) often depends on the utility of the new space; for example, an additional bedroom is typically more valuable than a new living room, and converting a garage into a bedroom with an en-suite bathroom will likely add the most value. A well-designed extra room can also serve specific needs, such as a home office, guest room, or entertainment space. However, adding a garage may be more valuable in areas with limited street parking or harsh climates where protecting a vehicle is a priority.
