I am looking for suggestions besides redoing all the concrete (already got a big discount for their mistake)

My apron is almost perfectly level and when it rains heavily the water slowly migrates into the garage, no puddle or anything but just a wetness to the surface that can go back many feet if it keeps raining...

Has anyone used one of these garage seals, does it work well and stay sealed...

I had a bad problem with mine. altho the floor slopes down towards the door, the last foot or so slopes the other way - so no matter what I did, water was always running into the garage. I even put a old hose inside the door seal - helped a little but didn't seal it. I installed a Storm Seal - stopped it 98% - now only have a small leak where the door side seals don't go to the floor. replacing them will seal it completely! I'm totally impressed - seemed pricey at first but well worth the bucks!

I have a low spot where water accumulates, I used that product but it didn't work for me. Our door faces directly into the wind, so the wind and rain get under the door and by the storm shield and pools up. It would probably work if it wasn't for the wind so YMMV- there are reviews of the product on Amazon to check out. I've given up at this point, and just sweep it out after a rain.
