Default Doors need realigned

We have several doors that need to be realigned. Is there a carpenter or other trades person you would recommend? Thanks.

Hopefully this is not a problem with your foundation/slab shifting. Haven't heard of this being a problem here, but know on some soil types it is elsewhere. Good luck.

Villager Joyce,
I suggest that you have one on the home inspection firms, I used Frank D'Angello, to inspect your house. He should be able to determine why the doors need to be aligned, warped due to high humidity, or something much more serious. He was very thorough for our house inspection, he advertises on ToTV, and I should still have one of his cards if you cannot find him.
Good luck.

Joyce we had an issue with a couple of our doors. Not a major issue. We called Home Warranty & they were fixed with no issues.

Always call Home Warranty first and see if they might send someone out to look at no charge even if your home is out of warranty.

Thanks for making me feel better. I genuinely think the doors were not level to begin with and constant opening and shutting made matters worse. I'll call Warranty tomorrow.
