Why Choose Our Panel Repair
Dents, cracks, and damage to garage door panels not only look bad but can compromise weather protection and security. Our panel repair service restores both appearance and functionality.
Why Panel Damage Goes Beyond Cosmetics
Damaged garage door panels allow water intrusion, reduce insulation effectiveness, and can compromise the structural integrity of sectional doors. Cosmetic damage may seem minor, but it often indicates underlying issues or creates pathways for moisture that leads to rust and further deterioration. Professional panel repair prevents these problems while maintaining your property's curb appeal.
Our Comprehensive Panel Repair Process
1
Panel Damage Evaluation
We assess the extent and type of panel damage, checking for structural compromise, weather seal integrity, and insulation damage. We determine whether repair or replacement is more appropriate for each affected panel.
2
Dent & Crack Restoration
Using specialized metalworking techniques, we repair dents by reshaping metal and filling cracks with appropriate repair materials. We ensure repairs maintain the panel's structural integrity and smooth surface for proper sealing.
3
Surface Preparation & Finishing
We prepare repaired surfaces for finishing, applying rust inhibitors, primer, and matching paint or coating. UV protection is applied to prevent future fading and deterioration in our sunny climate.
4
Weather Seal & Testing
We restore or replace weather seals around repaired panels and verify proper door operation. The complete door system is tested to ensure panels seal properly and don't interfere with smooth operation.

- Determining structural integrity after impact damage
- Matching paint and finishes for seamless appearance
- Restoring weather seals without compromising insulation
- Working with different panel materials (steel, wood, aluminum)

Frequently Asked Questions
Many panel damages can be professionally repaired, especially dents, small cracks, and surface damage. However, severely corroded, structurally compromised, or extensively damaged panels often need replacement. We assess each situation and recommend the most cost-effective solution.
We use professional color-matching techniques and often work directly with door manufacturers to obtain exact paint matches. For custom or older doors, we can blend colors or apply clear coatings that protect while maintaining the original appearance.
Minor cosmetic damage usually doesn't affect operation, but structural damage can cause panels to bind or prevent proper sealing. Water intrusion through damaged panels can also lead to rust and further deterioration. We always check for operational impacts during repair.
Costs vary based on damage severity and panel material. Simple dent repair might cost $150-$300 per panel, while extensive crack repair can range from $400-$800. We provide free estimates and can often complete repairs without removing the door.
Yes, insulated panels can be repaired, but the process is more complex to maintain thermal integrity. We use specialized techniques and materials that preserve insulation value while restoring the panel's appearance and structure.
