La Porte
Bayfront weather: salt, wind-driven rain and storm exposure on the same door.
Door Refinishing in La Porte
La Porte sits right on the bay, and the doors here work against three things at once: salt in the air, sun with no tree cover to break it, and wind-driven rain that arrives sideways.
That last one is the part people underestimate. Ordinary rain lands on top of a door. Wind-driven rain is pushed into the gaps — around the glazing, along the weatherstrip, into the joint where panel meets rail. It reaches places a normal shower never touches.
So we seal the joints and edges rather than only coating the faces, and we recommend doing the weather stripping at the same time. The two jobs protect each other, and on a bayfront house neither works properly alone.
