Snap-Off Screw Kit
Q: Do the snap-off screws in kit # 30-0002 actually pull down and tighten the floorboard to the joist or simply keep the two components from touching?
A: I haven’t seen these screws in some time. They used to be sold with a drill attachment by Home Depot here. One of my customers used it on his squeaky floors and it did help. It pulls the sub floor and top floor against each other, and then together pulls both down to the joist.
Webmaster’s note: If you have access from the basement, I saw a Mike Holmes episode where he eliminated creaking from below (if my memory serves me well!)
