How to eliminate extra space on the bottom of the page (WP theme)

I am working on a Wordpress theme for a friend, and for some reason I couldn't pin-point, there's an extra space on the bottom of the page. My container divs have 100% height, I added red & blue borders just so the boundaries are visible.

My structure is as follows:

dark grey is the mother container in which there are two child containers (medium grey), inside the right child container, there's another container (light grey)

Anyone with a fresh pair of eyes could help me fix this?

StackOverflow discourages links. It's better to put the code in the question (because inevitably, the content in the link will change).

Your problem is with your #sidebar element (the left container). You need to change the padding to 0 2% for example, to remove the padding that is in addition to the 100% height, as you say. So, to clarify, change your #sidebar padding from 2% to 0 2%.

0 2% means 0 on the top and bottom, and 2% on the sides.

Remove padding top and bottom from #sidebar. that is putting extra space beneath the sidebar.

Try this:-

#sidebar {
border: 1px solid green;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 19%;
height: 100%;
padding: 0 2% 0 2%;
height: 100%;
}
