How to seal against the garage opening?
Ok, so at about the same height as the panel is now?R RiKr said:
How do I then proceed when I attach tiles as a baseboard? Should I just press it into place with sealant or do I need to fill the gap at the bottom with something?
If there is a leak between the bottom of the garage door and the slab, pour a wet paste of concrete, place plastic wrap on top, close the door, and let it sit still for 2 days this time of year. Open the door, remove the plastic wrap. Done. Of course, it won't work if it's freezing.
What do you mean it will achieve? Won't there just be porous concrete there or why should I cast in this way?L leifa.k said:If it is leaking and letting in through the bottom of the garage door and the slab, cast with a wet paste of concrete, lay plastic wrap on top, pull the door again, let it be still for 2 days this time of year.

You can cast this way to make the garage door seal tightly against the slab. The strip under the garage door will shape itself against the "watery" concrete you've mixed. The plastic sheeting is to prevent "cement stains" on the strip under the door.A Advert said:
