What garage door frame repair includes

The technician probes the jambs and header for soft, rotted wood and checks whether the track brackets are still anchored solidly. Sound sections can sometimes be patched with epoxy consolidants, but extensively rotted jambs need to come out.

Replacement uses pressure-treated lumber or PVC trim boards that resist future rot, sealed and painted to match. The tracks are then re-anchored square so the door runs true again.

• Full inspection of jambs, header, and trim
• Rotted wood cut out and replaced
• Pressure-treated or PVC rot-resistant materials
• Track brackets re-anchored square and plumb
• Caulking and sealing against water intrusion
• Paint-ready finish matched to your trim
• Opener and door operation re-tested afterward

Signs your garage door frame needs repair

Soft or crumbling wood at the bottom of the door jambs, peeling paint that keeps coming back, or visible gaps between the frame and the brick or siding are all red flags. If the door has started rubbing one side, shifting jambs may be the cause.

Mushrooms or fungus growing on the trim mean moisture has been sitting in the wood for a while -- don't ignore that one.
