Possible foundation problems

    Hi, we live in a house that had an extension some yrs back before we bought the house, the floors are not completely level in places, slightly at an angle since the contractors didn't use a spirit level or whatever they should have used to make sure floors were level, (they were done around 2 yrs ago)again before we bought the house.
    I noticed where the extension is (there's the main bedroom) , the bed side locker seems to be more at an angle the last few weeks, no cracks in walls, no sticking doors etc, I'm wondering would the hot weather we had recently have caused some movement in the foundation? Any advice, suggestions or thoughts would help! Tk you

    Do you know what insulation was used in the floor slab of the extension?

    Any gaps between skirting/floor?

    no gaps. no new cracksor anything no doors sticking sounds to me like its just your floors are off level. that's without seeing the place naturally.
