Sticking doors. Sloping floors. Seasonal, or moving?
Most sticking doors and slightly sloping floors in Southern California homes are harmless: wood swells in damp months, and many older houses settled long ago. They are worth a closer look when several doors stick in one area, a door sticks again soon after planing, or a slope you can feel keeps growing alongside new cracks or gaps. Tighten the hinges, check for a tapered gap, roll a marble, and look at drainage on that side of the house.
Our new short guide covers the checks and who to call:
