Swag or Sag?

The garage door is often at the front of your house and a main entranceway. It can easily be seen from the curb of your street and can add to the attractiveness of your property or it can take away from it. The garage is also plays a factor in the security of your house. If the door itself or the wood frame around the door is rotting, thieves could find a way into your garage more easily. Rodents and insects could make their way into your house as well, plus the temperature of your garage could be compromised and this in turn could change the temperature of  the rooms around and above your garage. You should consider this and check to make sure the wood frame around the garage door is still intact and that the concrete below it is not crumbling. Despite sounding like a complicated fix, these are still some things that anyone can learn to do. Take a look at the link below to see how to make sure your garage is in tip top shape.
