Garage Door Seal Repair & Replacement

Protect Your Garage From the Elements, Pests & Energy Loss

Garage door seals may seem like a small detail, but they play a big role in protecting your home. Whether you’re dealing with drafts, water leaks, or unwanted critters sneaking in, a worn-out seal can compromise your garage’s comfort and security. At Bayside Garage Doors, we provide fast, affordable garage door seal repair and replacement to keep your space sealed tight and protected year-round.

Why Garage Door Seals Matter

Garage door seals—also known as weather stripping or bottom seals—form a tight barrier between your garage door and the ground. They help block out rain, wind, dirt, leaves, insects, and small animals, while also improving energy efficiency by keeping outside air where it belongs.

Indicators That Your Garage Door Seal May Require Repair or Replacement

If your garage is feeling drafty, dirty, or damp, your seal may be the problem. Here are some common signs it’s time for an inspection:
  • Visible Cracks or Gaps in the Seal
  • Water or Dirt Seeping Into the Garage
  • Noticeable Drafts or Temperature Fluctuations
  • Increased Energy Bills (especially if your garage is attached to your home)
  • Insects or Rodents Getting Inside
  • Sunlight Peeking Through the Bottom or Sides of the Door

Over time, seals can dry out, shrink, crack, or become compressed—losing their ability to create a proper barrier.

When to Replace Seals vs. Repair Them?

Seal Repair may be possible if:
  • The seal has come loose but is still in good condition
  • There are minor gaps that can be patched or re-adhered
  • The problem is isolated to one section of the seal

Seal Replacement is recommended when:

  • The rubber or vinyl is cracked, brittle, or missing entirely
  • The seal is several years old and showing signs of wear
  • You’re upgrading your garage door system and want better insulation or protection
  • The existing seal design is no longer effective or compatible with the door type
At Bayside Garage Doors, we carry a variety of high-quality seal types—including bottom seals, threshold seals, and perimeter weather stripping—so we can match the right solution to your garage door and your environment.

Garage Door Tips to Prevent Seal Issues:

  • Inspect Seals Seasonally – Check for cracks, flattening, or gaps in the bottom and side seals at least twice a year, especially before winter or rainy seasons.
  • Clean the Seals and Threshold – Keep the area where the seal contacts the ground clean and free of debris, dirt, or ice buildup that can cause wear or gaps.
  • Lubricate Seals Lightly – Use a silicone-based lubricant occasionally to keep rubber or vinyl seals flexible and prevent them from drying out or cracking.
  • Avoid Harsh Chemicals – Don’t use bleach or abrasive cleaners on your seals, as they can break down the rubber and shorten its lifespan.
  • Ensure Proper Door Alignment – A misaligned door can cause uneven pressure on the seal, leading to premature wear or improper sealing—have it adjusted if needed.

Bayside Garage Door Seal FAQs

Wooden Garage Door with Windows
A garage door seal is a rubber or vinyl strip that lines the bottom and sides of your garage door. It helps keep out water, dust, pests, and drafts, improving insulation and protecting your garage from the elements.
If you see visible cracks, gaps, or daylight under your door—or notice water, insects, or drafts getting into your garage—it’s time to replace the seal.
On average, garage door seals last 3 to 5 years depending on local weather conditions and usage. In hot or humid climates like Florida, they may need replacement more frequently.
Yes. Common types include bottom seals, threshold seals, and perimeter weather stripping. Each is designed to seal different parts of the door for complete protection.
This could be due to an uneven garage floor or a misaligned door. In these cases, a threshold seal or adjustable bottom seal may be needed for a better fit.
Prices vary depending on the type of seal and door size, but most professional replacements range from $75 to $450. Bayside Garage Doors offers free estimates.
