The parquet board creaks, what to do indiscriminately

Each design tends to deteriorate in its properties over time. However, users should have special knowledge that will help get rid of any problems that may arise. Thus, in this article we will analyze the situation in which the parquet acquires various defects, and also consider what needs to be done to eliminate it.

Why does the parquet board begin to creak when walking?

In the case presented, there may be many different sources of problems. Therefore, the most common of all will be presented below:

1. Due to a poor foundation, peeling surfaces can form, thereby destroying the main part. Laying flooring material directly on cement is becoming especially popular. That is, if you did not use intermediate layers in the installation, then you will probably encounter this problem.
2. If your screed is a maximum of two millimeters, then destruction will be due to unevenness.
3. Also, the problem may be hidden in the loose arrangement of the fiberboard.
4. Most often, craftsmen make mistakes not only during the installation process, but also when purchasing one or another source material.
5. And some of them do not follow the standard rules at all.

REFERENCE! This may include lack of adequate clearances between the covering and the wall.

1. Incorrect placement of lags can also cause squeaks.
2. If there is high humidity in the corresponding room, then due to non-compliance with a certain regime, the wood may shrink. Therefore, a characteristic sound is formed.

How to get rid of squeaks without disassembling the board

Once possible sources have been considered, action can begin to eliminate them.

• If you rely on the cheapest method, then you will have to arm yourself with self-tapping screws. With their help you need to install a replacement for the old nails.
• In addition, there is a more radical method. In this case, you should first find out the distance between the board itself and the concrete surface itself. To do this, you will have to drill a small hole and insert the wire there. In this way it is possible to determine the gap. Next, corresponding to this length, you should purchase self-tapping screws. After which it is necessary to detect the location of the lags. Most often they are found along a row of nails. Now you can proceed to the main stage. You need to drill the hole again. It should be approximately one millimeter smaller than the diameter of the screw used. Then you need to tighten the last of the named products until it stops.

ATTENTION! The described manipulations must be performed with each board, and each lag must be involved.

• You can also use another option for the outcome of events. In this case, you just need to acquire parts whose parameters correspond to the distance from the concrete to the surface. Actually, their presence will serve as a support, which will reduce the load on other parts of the structure.

In any case, it is not recommended to attach joists to a concrete structure.
