ProfessionalSqueaky Floorboard Repair

That creak you hear with every step at 2 AM doesn't have to be permanent. We locate the exact spot where the subfloor or hardwood is rubbing, drive screws or inject adhesive from below or above to lock the boards down, and silence the squeak — without tearing out any flooring.

Simple & stress-free

How it works

1

Find every squeak

We walk the floor systematically and mark every spot that flexes or rubs — there are usually more than the obvious few.

2

Secure the boards

We drive screws or nails at the right angle to pin the hardwood or subfloor firmly without causing splits.

3

Fill and finish

We fill any fastener holes with color-matched filler so the repair is nearly invisible in the finished floor.

We can help

Problems we fix

  • Hardwood planks that have worked loose from the subfloor over time
  • Subfloor panels that were not glued and now rub on the joists
  • Floor squeaks that travel — one step seems to create noise two feet away
  • Squeaks that come back after DIY attempts with store-bought lubricants

Good to know

Squeaky Floorboard Repair — FAQ

Can you fix squeaks without access from below?

Yes. We drive long trim screws through the hardwood into the subfloor from above, then countersink and fill the holes so they disappear after a touch-up.

Will repairs damage my hardwood finish?

We use thin-gauge trim screws and pre-drill carefully to avoid splitting. The filled holes are barely visible after a spot application of stain or finish.

How many squeaky spots can you fix in one visit?

As many as we find. We charge by the job, not by the squeak, so we'll silence the whole floor in one visit.

Why do floors start squeaking after years of being silent?

Seasonal humidity changes make wood expand and contract, gradually loosening the fasteners that hold boards to the subfloor. It's very normal and very fixable.
