Services
Subfloor Screw Down
Quiet Floor's main service is screwing down subfloors of new homes to prevent squeaky floors. We screw down the subfloors wall-to-wall in every room, closets and landings. Quiet Floor only uses screws made for subfloor screw downs, never drywall screws. Whether you build with 2X10's, I-joists or open web trusses, they are all prone to squeaks if the subfloors are not screwed down. Quiet Floor returns after trim to screw down the stair treads at no extra cost.
Screw Down Wall Plates
Walls not secured to the floor can be a noise source as the floor deflected downward under a momentary load. We can identify the walls that are prone to causing a noise and screw the wall plate to the floor.
Remove Nails from I-Beam
Nails left in contact with the I-Beams will cause noises. We bend the nails away or remove the nails to eliminate the possibility of a noise.
Tighten Bolts on I-Beams
Bolts become loose on packed I-Beams and flitch plates during the construction process due to drying and shrinkage of lumber used in the assembly. These bolts need to be retightened just before drywall to avoid noise from movement.
