Can humidity cause doors and windows to stick?

Yes, high humidity can cause doors and windows to stick. Excess moisture can cause wood frames and doors to expand, making them harder to open or close. However, if sticking doors and windows persist year-round or are accompanied by wall cracks, uneven floors, or gaps around frames, foundation settlement or structural movement may be the underlying cause.
