How to fix a sticking door & window? The issue might not even be the door. Sticking doors or sticking windows are a common problem when it comes to foundation settlement in your home. Homes around Vancouver are at high risk for settlement and that can create structural issues within your home.
Weak soils mixed with changing weather can expand, shrink, and shift the ground supporting your home. This results in unstable and lessening of solis beneath your floors and the home begins to settle. As the home settles, it compresses or sinks into the weak soils, causing your home to deform in areas such as the floors and walls.
What starts as a slightly sticking door, could get worse and eventually stop being functional. Settlement also sets off a domino effect resulting in more structural damage issues such as deforming your floors and gapping in walls. Ignoring signs of settlement causes the issue to get worse, and more expensive to fix.
