Do I need to seal a garage floor before painting?

• <div><p>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. </p><p>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.</p></div>

How do garage door sensors work?

• <div><p>Garage door sensors work by using infrared beams to detect objects in the door’s path. One sensor sends a beam while the other receives it. When the beam is broken—say, by your car or anything else—the sensors signal the door to stop or reverse. It’s all about safety and making sure nothing gets trapped under the door. If they’re misaligned, the beam doesn’t connect, and <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-does-garage-door-opener-work.htm">the garage door might stay open</a> or close regardless of obstructions. </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>

Q: How do I plan and budget for a garage remodel?

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

Q: Does the type of garage door affect the insulation?

• <div><p>The level of insulation is determined by both the material and the thickness of the door. Some garage door materials (such as wood) have natural insulating capabilities, while other materials (such as metal) do not. No matter the material, two-layer and three-layer garage doors have a higher R-value than single-layer garage doors, as insulation is fitted between the panels. </p></div>

He gave us a bid to put in a door. He was then going to come back to our home to give us the information on the bid and to look into our walls to see if we needed any electrical work done as well. He said he wanted to do all this before he came and started the remodel. I scheduled 4 different...

We felt that he was very honest. He didn't try to sell us a new door, which we though we needed. He did the repair work, and his price was very reasonable. We would definitely use this company again and refer anyone needing this type of work to them.
