How to Fix Squeaky Floors
“Squeaks are caused when the subfloor begins to separate from the floor joists. The nails squeak as they slide in and out of the joists. To fix squeaks caused by large gaps from beneath the floor, fasten a piece of scrap wood against the floor joist so that it fits snugly against the subfloor. The wood will support the subfloor, preventing it from moving down to the joist.”
This easy to follow tutorial will show you step by step how to fix those annoying, squeaky floors. You don’t need to call in an expensive contractor for something you can do yourself. Be a handyman and get the job done.
