How To Replace Trim Around A Garage Door
To the dismay of many homeowners, insulating the garage isn’t the only step required to retain heat and air inside the building. A slew of potential problems can result from a garage that isn’t airtight, including mold and mildew growth. Air-tight trimming around the garage door is also necessary to prevent the conditioned air from seeping through the tiny holes and cracks into the outside world.
Trim on the garage door prolongs the life expectancy and usage of the door. Furthermore, trim also prevents air from escaping the interior, ensuring your garage is always at the right temperatures no matter the time of the year. If trim isn’t installed on the garage doors, now is the time to begin working this project. If trim is already installed, but is showing signs of damage or wear and tear, replacing them is also a good idea.
This DIY job takes less than a day to complete, averaging a cost of about $100. That’s a tremendous difference in price versus the rates of a professional. Replacing the trim around the garage door is simple, requires few tools, and only minimal skill to complete. If you’re ready to weatherproof your garage, learn how to replace trim around a garage door using the step-by-step guide below, and plan this project for the coming weekend.
