Think about it. If your house has an attached garage, the garage door may comprise more than one-third of your home's front facade. If that home is more than five years old, your garage door probably is a solid colored, raised-planel door that looks like every other garage door in the neighborhood.
A new door, quickly and correctly installed by your local proffessional garage door company, will differentiate your home and add style, value and curb appeal. The hottest new style in garage doors is the carriage house design. It's available in steel, wood or composite materials and in many price ranges.
Tom W. a long-time editor of a garage door industry trade magazine, says the carriage house garage door is "the first major new design in garage doors in more than 25 years." He says that all major manufacturers have joined "the carriage house craze" and offer thousands of unique variations of the doors.
A garage door is a important home improvement project. It is typically the first thing people notice when they pull into your driveway or pass by your home. Garage doors also offer protection against severe weather and theft, help you save money on heating bills and substantially increase the appearance and value of your home. A nationwide poll of realtors revealed more than 71 percent felt a new garage door added to the value of a home, even adding as much as four percent of the selling price. That means $10,000 on a $250,00 home, which is a huge deal for people wanting to sell now during a difficult real estate market.
