Weather Seal Replacement
A worn seal is a small, inexpensive fix — but it's usually the reason water, pests, or drafts are getting into the garage.
The rubber seal that keeps the outside out
Weather seals are the rubber or vinyl strips along the bottom edge of the door (the bottom seal) and sometimes along the sides and top (weatherstripping) that close the gap between the door and the frame or ground.
They're a wear item by design — sun exposure, temperature swings, and general age make the rubber crack, flatten, or pull loose after a few years, even with no other issues on the door.
It's the main line of defense against water, pests, and drafts
A worn seal is how water gets into a garage during rain, which can damage stored items, promote mold growth, and — over time — contribute to rust on tools, equipment, or a vehicle's undercarriage.
It's also the most common entry point for rodents and insects looking for a way in. And in an attached garage, a good seal noticeably cuts down on drafts, which matters for energy bills if the garage shares a wall with living space.
