Garage Door Replacement Offers the Best ROI in 2024, Says National Report

Homeowners on the Eastside of King County, WA, take note: replacing your garage door just became the smartest home improvement move of the year. According to the Journal of Light Construction’s 2024 Cost vs. Value Report, garage door replacement ranks #1 for return on investment, beating out popular projects like kitchen remodels and bathroom renovations.

The report found that homeowners who replace their garage doors can recoup an impressive over 190% of the project cost upon resale—making it the only project that actually returns more value than it costs.

Why such a strong return? Your garage door is one of the first things people see from the street. A new, stylish, and well-functioning door not only boosts curb appeal, but also improves energy efficiency, home security, and daily convenience.

Why is my garage door so loud?

By Jonathan Jacobs • July 9, 2025
A loud garage door is usually a sign that something needs maintenance or repair. Common causes include: Dry or worn-out rollers and hinges – Metal parts can squeak or grind if they’re not properly lubricated. Loose hardware – Screws, bolts, or brackets may rattle as the door moves. Worn-out springs – Aging or failing torsion or extension springs can make banging or popping noises. Unbalanced door – If the door is out of alignment, it may strain the opener and make grinding or dragging sounds. Old opener – Older openers, especially chain-driven models, tend to be noisier than newer belt-driven systems. If your garage door is making more noise than usual, it’s a good idea to have it inspected. Eastside Garage Door Repair in Renton, WA offers professional tune-ups and repairs to help quiet things down and keep your system running smoothly.
