Stuck door — San Francisco, California
A door that sticks, drags, or won't latch properly can be caused by humidity swelling the wood, shifted framing, loose hinges, or a settling foundation. A carpenter or handyman can plane the door, rehang it, or adjust the frame so it operates smoothly again.
Waarom dit veel voorkomt in San Francisco
SF's aging Victorian and Edwardian homes generate constant small repairs — sticking doors from fog-swelled frames, dry-rot patching, and the deferred maintenance common in rent-controlled units. Earthquake-readiness tasks like securing water heaters are also frequent requests.
