What can I do about a gap under my garage door?

• <div><p>If you have a gap under your garage door, it may be caused by an uneven garage floor. Repairing the concrete under the floor may level out the surface enough to fix gaps. You can also <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/replace-garage-door-weather-stripping.htm">replace the garage door weather stripping</a> or adjust the closing position of the door to see if that remedies your issue. Otherwise, call a garage door repair specialist to inspect the door.</p></div>

Can you manually open the garage door?

• <div><p>If push comes to shove, and you need to manually open your garage door, then you should be able to do so. To manually open your garage door, first, make sure that the door is in the down position. You’ll need to unlock your garage door opener’s emergency release mechanism, which is typically a red robe that you can find on the carriage. Once you’ve pulled the cord, you can manually lower the door.</p><p>If your garage door is stuck in an open position, consider contacting a professional to safely release the opener.</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: Do I need a garage door opener?

• <div><p>You don&rsquo;t need a garage door opener unless you need or desire the convenience they offer. While you may be able to open some garage doors manually, having a garage door opener makes life a lot easier. There is an exception, though&mdash;a motorized opener is an absolute must if you have a two-car garage (or larger), as the door will be too heavy for the average person to lift on their own.</p></div>

Q: Can paint protect my garage floor?

• <div><p>Yes. Paint will protect your garage floors, making them more resistant to water, mold, mildew, and oil stains. Depending on your paint choice, painted surfaces are easier to clean and maintain.</p></div>

They came in examined my garage door and told me the best way they could fix it and quoted me a price. The repairmen were very curious and knowledgeable. I had them repair the door but I think they were too expensive. They said when I called them if they did the job they would take the 30...

Tim is just awesome, all the way around. We live out of state and have a home in PA we are fixing up in hopes of retiring to in the future. We wanted to get a new roof on our garage (nice size, 12:12 pitch, steep). Tim had come and given us a fair quote late last year, but due to COVID, we...

I called in to ask for service. They had a technician out early the next morning. He didn’t have the part at the time but returned when he did. The office staff and technician were very helpful and professional. I’ll certainly be using them for all future garage door needs.

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!

It went very well. They masked off the garage walls and concrete sidewalks to prevent over-spray. They put up a barrier to keep vehicles off the driveway. This is a family operated business and I have dealt with them in the past. They are very professional and extremely honest to deal with. ...

"Ervin arrived on time and took a good look at the project before giving us a price that couldn't be beaten, they arrived on time on the date they said they would, his employees were professional, courteous and even though they were replacing the roof we hardly knew they were here. The new roof looks absolutely amazing and I would definitely recommend them to anyone. They cleared up after themselves too, if I am in need of any services they provide Ervin will be the only person I call."
