  • Should I Paint My Garage Doors?

Should I Paint My Garage Doors?

Have you ever seen a home without a garage door?  Probably not, because they come standard on the homes we have.  Here in Davis, and all over the Sacramento area, they are typically a prominent feature of the home.  Some have more than one.  Some are metal, some are wood, but we all have them.  If I could design the neighborhoods we live in, there would be allies, and all the garage doors would be hidden.  I don’t get to do that, so a lot of us have garage doors that are the first thing we see on our homes.  Because they are a prominent part of our home, they need to look good.  We get asked a lot “do I need to paint my garage door?”

The answer to that question is not just yes or no.  If you have a wood door, you need to protect it, either with paint or stains and sealers.  It is critical to keep the wood protected.

If you have a metal door the answer is maybe.  Most metal garage doors come with a factory baked finish.  This is the most durable finish you can get, and it comes in a few different colors.  Most of the new doors you see are white.  The problem is that a lot of people want their garage doors to disappear, or not stick out like a giant eyeball on the front of their home.  So we paint them to match the rest of the house.  You don’t have to paint the whole house just because you had to replace your garage door.  At Brooks Painting we do small jobs all the time.  Don’t hesitate to call us to paint your new garage door.  We also have stained many wood Carriage House doors for clients.  They need to be sealed on all six edges before being installed, or they can warp.  They also require special clean coats to last longer than a normal varnish.  Call us for a free estimate for your garage door or any painting needs, in Davis, Woodland, or Sacramento. 530-753-5074

Consummate professionals! We hired Brooks to repaint the exterior of our house, and they did a fantastic job. The paint looks wonderful, everyone was also on time, friendly, and respectful of our property. Exceptional communication through the entire process. I was worried about damage to the landscaping near the house (bad previous experience with another outfit), but they were all very understanding and the crew was super careful. Did what they said they would do with no weirdness, no smoking, no radio, and they cleaned up after themselves nicely. This picky customer is very happy!

We are long time happy customers with many positive experiences with Brooks Painting. We have appreciated the assistance (and patience) with selecting paint colors, the professionalism of the staff and the high quality of workmanship. We recently had some interior painting done and the crew was on time, neat, careful inside the house and very easy to work with. They also cheerfully handled some unexpected drywall repair. I highly recommend Brooks Painting.

Brooks did a fantastic job on our exterior and interior paint jobs. Quality was high, price was reasonable, and the team was extremely professional and detail-oriented. Mark was our crew lead and the team performed a number of exterior wood repairs, a door re-stain, interior and exterior painting. Mark clearly takes a lot of pride in his work and went above and beyond to ensure the work was high-quality, including finding exact matching siding to fix dry rot, and performing minor repairs that weren't even included in the quote. He and the team were all consistently positive and personable, joking with each other throughout the day, while also genuinely complimenting each other on the quality of their work. It was great to see, and that positivity definitely showed through the work they did. We couldn't be happier with the end result.

What a difference!! We hired Brooks Painting to do both an interior refresh painting and a completely new exterior color. Everything was handled professionally and as promised. The team, from estimator to office to painters on site, was responsive, friendly and skilled. Brooks Painting is the most reliable contractor we have ever hired. Thank you Jeremy, Dan, Israel, and Kristen.

Very professional. Painters were very accommodating on the little things.

Claude V., Dixon

Very professional, I appreciate the time they took to make sure everything was taken care of for my house! I really liked that Jaime stepped up and told me not to paint my front door like the house and then chose a color that worked great. Thank you!

Dale S.

The crew is as neat and reliable as the actual painting job and paint used. No boom boxes!! Cordial staff spoke English. The crew got along with each other and worked as a team. The actual finish is / was beautiful. We would like to use Brooks again!
