don't say if it's a problem that the builders caught, or
something that they were ignoring and/or trying to hide, I don't know
if you should worry or not.

They just haven't caught it yet. The contractor hasn't done his final
walkthrough and the foreman is a perfectionist. I have no doubt it'll be
fixed to our satisfaction (everybody's). I've calmed down, the purrs and
prayers helped. It is and was just a bit upsetting to walk in and see a
wall wobble.

And Dad is knowledgable in this sort of thing too and he reasoned that
the structure and construction was sound, it was due to the height, it
would bow out slightly. So we need a beam going crosswise to pull that
slight bend when the door would shut. It sounds scary, and believe me,
seeing it was but it wasn't exactly unforeseen, hence the reason they
looked for it in the first place.
