3 Cheap + Easy Ways to Upgrade Your Garage Door This Weekend

Take a step back and look at your garage door. If it's anything like ours, it desperately needs a refresh.

Don't give up on your dingy, boring garage door just yet! We've got three easy ways you can overhaul your garage door this weekend. First up, a fresh coat of paint.

To make sure your garage door is ready for paint, it first needs a good cleaning. Start by removing any dirt or debris, then scraping off or sanding any loose paint. Spray down the entire door with a powerful degreaser and scrub away grime with a tough scrub brush. If the surface of the door is cracked, damaged or dented, you may need to call a professional before you begin.

Once the degreaser has worked its magic, rinse the door clean with water and allow to dry. Repeat the cleaning process on the trim around the door if you're planning to paint it as well.
