Why aren’t sliding garage doors more popular?

• <div><p>Sliding garage doors aren’t popular because when they can be inconvenient—they require you to leave your car—if they’re manual. But, if they’re automatic, they’re much more expensive than a conventional tilting door. Some find the sliding door less aesthetically pleasing than a tilting or barn door. </p></div>

Can you use propane heaters in a garage?

• <div><p>Indoor propane heaters are safe to use in a garage. You may be able to use an outdoor propane heater inside a garage in some instances,<b> as long as the garage door remains open</b> and there’s constant airflow to allow the carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide to escape. Other garage heaters include electric heaters and gas heaters.</p></div>

Q: Is painting a garage floor a good idea?

• <div><p>There are many benefits to painting a garage floor, especially if you use an <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/epoxy-coating-transforms-boring-flooring.htm">epoxy floor coating</a>. In general, paint makes your garage easier to clean. Since concrete is porous, it tends to absorb things like dirt, grime, mildew, oil, and grease. Paint&mdash;specifically epoxy-based paint&mdash;creates a barrier that helps you easily mop up the mess before it stains or is difficult to remove. </p></div>

Q: Are glass garage doors safe?

• <div><p>Although the cost of glass garage doors is a concern, a bigger concern is safety against high-wind storms and burglars breaking the glass. If you use tempered or impact glass on your garage door, it&rsquo;s more shatter-resistant than standard glass. This is safer in a storm where you don&rsquo;t want shards of glass flying around. However, if a burglar wants to access your garage, the glass door is easier to break into than a solid wood or metal garage door. </p></div>

But, if they&rsquo;re automatic, they&rsquo;re much more expensive than a conventional tilting door. Some find the sliding door less aesthetically pleasing than a tilting or barn door. </p></div>

Q: Is a garage considered living space?

• <div><p>In some cases, a detached garage can be considered extra living space, but you will need to gain permission and comply with your local building code. Depending on where you live, you may need permits for a variety of installations, including electrical work, plumbing, and structural work. Many homeowners make the mistake of converting a garage into a living space without acquiring permits, which can result in hefty fines and even the removal of your hard work. Furthermore, a detached garage doesn&rsquo;t add to the livable square footage of your home when it&rsquo;s time to sell.</p></div>

We started the process last Oct., 2013 and weather was not on our side. His people got the existing carport down (took about a week, did not show up every day) and it rained, snowed, or was subfreezing temps that delayed up til March 2014. The concrete guy was slow to get the foundation laid...

Excellent! Our house was built 50 years ago and this company built the new garage with a style and materials that made the new construction look as if it had been built when the house was. They took time to build a quality structure with no short cuts. We are VERY pleased!

Better than I expected. Unlike many contractors, he came when he said and finished the job before moving on to others or leaving anything unfinished. I would recommend him for any similar jobs like roofing, siding garages and the like. Also See previous explanation in question 14

Ray and his team did a great job. During the bid process, I got bids from several other contractors. Ray was able to get to my price, with the full set of features I requested, plus a few additional ones that other contractors would not do for the price. For example, Ray's price was for a...
