Hey folks,

I noticed some of the trim around this door is bending. I assume it is likely due to humidity but any other possible causes? This is in the basement where it is typically cool.

What do you recommend I do to fix it? Just some simple wood glue and something to hold it in place as the glue dries?

    If it’s easy to remove, you can take off the part that’s coming loose, clean off any old glue and dust, then apply some wood glue evenly on the back. Press it back into place and secure it with tape, clamps, or small nails for about 24 hours. Once it’s fully dry, you can fill any gaps with wood filler, sand it smooth, and touch up the paint.
