Garage Door Garage Door Seal Replacement Funkstown, MD
Homeowners across Edgewood Hill, Woodcrest Village and Doub Meadow call us for garage door seal replacement because we know Funkstown. The common drivers locally are moisture-tripped openers and sensors after storms, mildew and rust on shaded, north-facing doors, rusted bottom brackets on damp slabs, and pitted galvanized hardware on older doors — and we fix the cause, not just the symptom.
Funkstown, MD is shaped by a humid subtropical climate — long, hot, muggy summers, mild winters, heavy thunderstorms, and high year-round humidity. We've learned which parts last in Maryland's humid subtropical region, because summer heat and moisture that swell wood doors and seize rollers, damp garages that pit galvanized parts over time, and corrosion that creeps across hardware in the muggy air take a steady toll on springs, tracks, and seals.
In our experience around Funkstown, the repairs that come up most are moisture-tripped openers and sensors after storms, mildew and rust on shaded, north-facing doors, rusted bottom brackets on damp slabs, and pitted galvanized hardware on older doors. We'll show you exactly what failed and why before we touch a tool.
Bottom seal replacement is the highest-volume seal job we do — bottom astragals wear out faster than the side jamb or top header seals because they contact the floor every close cycle. The seal compresses, deforms, hardens under UV, and eventually tears or cracks. A failed bottom seal lets water, dust, leaves, insects, and small rodents under the door. The fix is straightforward and quick: remove the old seal, slide a new one into the retainer (or replace the retainer if it's also worn), trim to length, and verify a tight close.
We carry T-style, P-style, and bulb-profile astragals to fit any retainer. The retainer (U-channel) is the aluminum or PVC track that holds the seal — if the retainer itself is cracked or pulling away from the bottom panel, we replace it during the same visit. Stock profiles cover 95% of doors; obscure or vintage doors may need a special-order astragal.
Fast service for stock profiles is standard. Most visits take 45–60 minutes including a quick check of the side and header seals and a confirmation of the bottom-to-floor gap with the new seal compressed.

Worn or compressed seal lets daylight through. Replacement restores the seal.
Water enters during rain
Bottom seal failure is the most common cause of garage water intrusion during heavy rain.
Leaves or debris under door
Wind blows debris under failed seals. Restored seal stops the inflow.
Insects or rodents entering
Even small gaps let pests through. A continuous seal stops them.
Seal visibly cracked, torn, or chunked
Visible damage means the seal is functionally compromised even if the gap looks small.
Common causes & what we fix
UV degradation
intense sun hardens vinyl and rubber seals over 5–8 years. Hardened seals crack and tear.
Floor contact wear
The seal compresses and abrades against the floor every close cycle. Wear is cumulative over years.
Concrete heave or settlement
Floor changes shape with foundation movement. Old seal can't compensate; new seal with potential threshold kit can.
Pest damage
Rodents chew through seals to enter. Once chewed, seal must be replaced — repair isn't viable.
Retainer corrosion or cracking
Aluminum retainers corrode at the floor contact line; PVC retainers crack with age. Retainer replacement extends seal life.

Frequently asked about garage door seal replacement
Top questions homeowners searching for Garage Door Seal Replacement near me ask us:
Funkstown sits in a humid subtropical climate — long, hot, muggy summers, mild winters, heavy thunderstorms, and high year-round humidity. That is hard on a door — summer heat and moisture that swell wood doors and seize rollers, damp garages that pit galvanized parts over time, and corrosion that creeps across hardware in the muggy air all accelerate wear on springs, seals, and openers, so the failures we see most here are moisture-tripped openers and sensors after storms, mildew and rust on shaded, north-facing doors, rusted bottom brackets on damp slabs, and pitted galvanized hardware on older doors. We size springs and seals for Maryland's humid subtropical region conditions rather than a generic catalog spec.
The call we get most in Funkstown is moisture-tripped openers and sensors after storms. Funkstown has mainly suburban houses with attached two-car garages, mixed with some older central-neighborhood homes, so mildew and rust on shaded, north-facing doors turns up often too.

T-style (most common since 1990s), P-style (older builds), or bulb (commercial and some specialty). We bring samples to the visit so you can see and feel the options.
Up to ~1 inch of floor variation — yes. Bulb seals compress more than T-style and handle more variation. For severe floor unevenness, threshold kit is the better solution.

Bottom seal only: 30–45 minutes. With retainer replacement: 60–75 minutes. With side and header seals: 90–120 minutes.
