Q: Do you need a vapor barrier when drywalling a garage?

• <div><p>If you plan on heating your garage, you must install a vapor barrier when drywalling the garage. A vapor barrier protects your garage from frost and mold that can occur through condensation. If your garage is unheated, you don't need to install a vapor barrier. The only exception is if you regularly crank the heat in your car before getting in it. In this case, you may still want to install a vapor barrier, as your car can heat your garage.</p></div>

Q: Do you need drywall over insulation in a garage?

• <div><p>You do not need to drywall over most types of garage insulation. However, doing so can increase noise reduction, make the space more attractive, and keep children and pets from touching harmful fiberglass insulation. If you&rsquo;re using cellulose or some other <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/blown-in-insulation.htm">type of blown-in insulation</a> (fiberglass and mineral wool are common), you will need drywall to contain the insulation material.</p></div>

Q: Is it dangerous to quickly thaw a garage door?

• <div><p>If you take caution around fragile garage parts, thawing methods shouldn&rsquo;t cause problems. Avoid using direct sources of heat too close to the garage door, especially rubber parts.</p><p>Another spot to avoid heating is the garage door spring. This powerful metal spring can become very cold in winter. Applying heat to a cold spring increases the chances it could break. </p></div>

Q: Are there environmentally friendly garage building materials available?

• <div><p>Yes, with sustainable wood products and high-efficiency lighting options.</p></div>

Q: Why aren’t sliding garage doors more popular?

• <div><p>Sliding garage doors aren&rsquo;t popular because when they can be inconvenient&mdash;they require you to leave your car&mdash;if they&rsquo;re manual. 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>

"First I'll get this out of the way: They had made a clerical error on the original estimate that caused their bid amount to be lower than the final outcome - but we were able to work it out, and I was happy with my choice. Beyond that, we had excellent service from Sejay construction. Rick, Walt, and crew were very friendly and meticulous. They had the job started and done in no time at all. Throughout the job, Rick was always prompt, and kept me posted on how things were going, along with their findings, in case additional repairs would be needed. The roof and chimney flashing looks absolutely beautiful, and the skill and experience these folks have really shines through in every aspect. The cost of the job was extremely competitive, and I can't believe how efficient the whole process was. I would definitely hire them again to do other work."
