Local matters for garage door weatherstripping. In Palouse and neighboring Colfax, Pullman, Clarkston, and West Clarkston-Highland, the failures we address most are dust-fouled tracks that bind and throw the door off level, dried, cracked bottom seals that let dust into the garage, heat-warped panels on west-facing steel doors, and loosened hardware from constant expansion and contraction, all backed by our 10-year workmanship guarantee.
Garage doors in Whitman County live with a high, dry climate of intense summer heat, sharp overnight cooling, and very little annual precipitation. For Palouse that means watching for intense UV that embrittles rubber gaskets and bottom seals, extreme summer heat that bakes and warps lightweight steel panels, and heat-soak that fatigues torsion springs years early; we factor it into every repair and every new-door spec.
Palouse homeowners usually call us about one of a few things: dust-fouled tracks that bind and throw the door off level, dried, cracked bottom seals that let dust into the garage, heat-warped panels on west-facing steel doors, and loosened hardware from constant expansion and contraction. We diagnose the real cause — not just the symptom — before quoting a flat rate.
Weatherstripping is the often-overlooked component that determines whether your garage is sealed against drafts, dust, pests, and water. There are four distinct seal locations on a typical door: the bottom astragal seal between door and floor, the side jamb seals between door edges and door frame, the top header seal between door top and frame, and (optionally) a threshold kit on the floor itself. Each wears or fails on its own schedule and contributes to a tight seal.
We replace all four where needed in a single visit. Bottom astragals come in T-style, P-style, and bulb profiles to fit any retainer; we carry all three. Jamb seals are vinyl flap or brush, with the flap style being more common locally. Threshold kits sit on the concrete floor and create a positive seal even when the floor has settled or sloped slightly. Most homes can benefit from at least one of these upgrades.
Typical visit: 45–60 minutes per door. Installation is straightforward — measure, cut to length, fit and secure. The biggest impact is usually the bottom seal, especially on older doors where the original seal has cracked, hardened, or worn through from floor contact.
A pencil-width gap or larger means the bottom seal is worn, cracked, or compressed. Replacement restores the seal.
Drafts in the garage
Air movement around the door edges with the door closed indicates failed jamb or header seals. Side gaps let cold air, dust, and pests in.
Water intrusion during rain
Water under the door during heavy rain points to either bottom-seal failure or a low spot in the floor that a threshold kit can fix.
Pests entering the garage
Rodents, lizards, and insects find any gap. Effective weatherstripping seals them out.
Old or cracked existing seals
Bottom seals harden and crack at 5–8 years. Side and top seals last longer but eventually fail. Visible cracking means replace.
Common causes & what we fix
UV degradation
Vinyl and rubber seals harden and crack under intense sun exposure over years. Replacement with UV-resistant compounds extends life.
Floor wear
Bottom seals contact the floor every close cycle. The seal compresses, deforms, and eventually tears.
Concrete heave or settlement
Floors that have settled or heaved create gaps under the closed door. Threshold kits compensate.
Pest damage
Rodents chew through bottom seals to enter. Once chewed, the seal must be replaced.
Improper original install
Builder-grade installs sometimes skip jamb seals entirely. Adding them is a quick upgrade.
