Locate the gap before choosing material
Explain whether daylight shows beneath the door, at one corner or around its sides. If a bottom seal is pulling out of its retainer, record that condition without removing fasteners. Seal shape and attachment matter; the thickest strip on a shelf may interfere with travel or fail to seat correctly.
Keep water control and door work distinct
A seal proposal should say which gap it is intended to address. If the remedy needs an altered slab, exterior drainage or another building change, Palm Beach Gardens publishes separate residential project guides for those scopes. Treat the door repair and any additional work as coordinated decisions, not a promise that new rubber makes a garage floodproof.
Your questions
Can a stronger closing force press the seal into the floor?
Do not increase opener force to conceal a gap. The door position, correct seal and opening conditions need assessment together.
Should the sides be replaced whenever the bottom seal is changed?
Only if their condition and fit justify it. Ask the estimate to identify each material being replaced and why.
