Well it’s actually sloped there so water is going away from that spot. It’s just the water coming down the door is going through a gap and down into the shop. Almost like the weatherstripping isn’t really do anything at all for the bottom sides

Seems to be any kind of water. Even the sprinklers for grass hitting that area is letting water come in. It’s coming down the door and through slits between the themostop/weatherstripping and the door itself. I just watched it today when I was watering the grass.

No offense taken. After seeing the work they did for me wish I had picked another company. My brother in law used them and had no complaints but it was a few years ago so maybe he had different workers. Are you talking about how the trim has a gap around it? I didn’t like that either and I ran...

I had to caulk around it (which I thought was bs) but there’s actually small gaps around like the base of the door and the metal siding. Somewhat hard to show in a picture. I’ve called this place back for over a month and they claim they are super busy but will come out and check but I’m not...

Oh ok yeah I did notice the left side (looking from front of the shop) was a little higher up than the right side. The right side thermostop does touch the concrete, whereas the left side doesn’t. The thing is I was in there today and running the sprinklers for grass and noticed you can see the...

Yeah we are looking at that or just getting an eave or lean too added on

I was thinking of cutting that 2x a bit but wasn’t sure if it was a good idea. I need to post some better pics but I think the thermo seal you are referring too is actually the caulk backer we tried in the rubber seal on the bottom of the door. We left it handing out some so we could remove it...

Yeah they required payments in thirds and something told me NOT to pay it until we a rain but we’ve been super dry and didn’t think it would have this many issues

Louisiana 24x30 built by Ark La Tex

Hello, I'm new to these forums but all my research keeps bringing me back to this site so I figured I'd create an account and ask some questions. Back in July we had a pole barn/shop built from a company called Ark La Tex out of Louisiana and to be honest it's been a nightmare. The shop is...

Hello everyone. Coming here and making an account since recently having a pole barn/shop built and seem to be having constant questions! Hopefully I can get some good advice and maybe help some others.
