Garage Door Pros serves the New Orleans area and surrounding communities in Louisiana. The state experiences a subtropical climate with hot, humid summers and mild, wet winters. This persistent humidity and frequent rainfall can accelerate the deterioration of garage door components, particularly the bottom seal. We address the specific challenges faced by New Orleans homeowners due to these environmental factors.
Louisiana's humid subtropical climate, especially prevalent in New Orleans, presents unique challenges for garage door bottom seals. High moisture levels and frequent, heavy rainfall can cause rubber or vinyl seals to degrade, crack, or become moldy, compromising their ability to keep water and pests out. Our service involves a thorough inspection of the existing seal, checking for signs of wear, water intrusion, or pest entry points. We then remove the old seal and meticulously clean the bottom of the door and its track. A new, appropriately sized seal is installed, ensuring a tight, weather-resistant barrier. We select materials that can withstand the local humidity and prevent water damage to the garage interior.
