Sometimes a tacky wood floor is caused by heat or humidity in the air. It s most common in buildings with concrete foundations or poorly ventilated crawlspaces. In other cases the tackiness is simply due to dirt and buildup on the floor caused by tracking dirt mud and other substances into the house with your shoes.

It comes from damp concrete and poorly drained ground and besides making the basement and lower stories uncomfortable it can damage the floors foundation and other woodwork. If you have damp patches bubbling paint crumbling plaster or powdery deposits on wall surfaces close to the floor rising damp is probably the culprit. When warm humid air from outside comes into contact with the cold concrete the air rapidly cools and condenses on the surface causing the wetness. Constant dampness on a tile floor feels unpleasant when walked upon and creates a potential slipping hazard.

As the top coating gets hot it may soften and cause the feeling of stickiness to the touch. Smelly mold may appear if the moisture problem persists bringing with it the potential. When tile flooring feels damp and no liquid has been spilled on it it s likely condensation that has formed on the tile surface.
