2022 Vs.

In challenging economic times, it’s important to choose home improvement investments that pay off when it’s time to sell. New garage doors continue to offer the highest return on investment both in San Antonio and nationally, according to the latest survey from Remodeling Magazine.

Remodeling Magazine’s annual Cost Vs. Value Report shows that replacing a garage door is the top home improvement option for return on investment for the second year in a row in San Antonio and the best value nationally for the sixth year in a row.

New garage doors returned more than 94 percent of the job cost upon resale in 2022, based on the installation of a new door priced just under $4,000 for a foam-insulated 16-foot-by-7-foot door and new tracks. More information on the report is available at www.costvsvalue.com.

“Garage doors make sense financially, especially in current economic conditions,” said Randy Oliver, president of Hollywood-Crawford Garage Door Company. “It’s an improvement with a lot of other benefits too, including relatively low cost and an instant boost in curb appeal.”

Garage doors are often used as the primary entrance, covering up to 40% of the front elevation of some homes, which allows homeowners to greatly improve the function, value and curb appeal of their home by just replacing their garage door.
