Water Under Garage Door

albionrovers

In the recent extreme weather conditions, I'm getting rain water in my garage, it gets in under the garage door. The water is getting over the flood prevention strip at the entrance to the garage, bummer.

Aside from lifting a row of my monobloc and installing a drain, has anyone any tips for a quick fix? I tried to buy white sand bags recently but couldn't find any, all builders merchants only had hessian bags. Any other tips? All comments welcome.

Many thanks.

The correct solution is to install the drainage, but for a quick solution you can get rubber strips from builders merchants, about 100mm wide x 4-5mm thick, and fix these to the bottom of the garage door. They will flex with the doors movement but will stop driving rain from getting in. If the problem is more serious than just driving rain then sorting out the drainage is probably your only solution.

All the best
