OBerry Enterprises 3233 Squeak Elimination Kit

Steve: I lived in an apartment that had squeaky floor boards under the carpet. This solved that issue entirely, and I could exercise without making a lot of racket.

10/10, would recommend.

Imran: In 2020 My Contractor replaced the hardwood on the floor, he did not replaced the warped sub floor or secured it properly using screws.
So the floor was very squeaky with loose plywood (not secured properly to floor joist by screws).
I used this product, followed all the instructions meticulously and it solved all my problem. Now I can walk without nearly all the annoying sounds.
Please ensure your pre-drill the holes before you use the screw

Kelly Held: The floors in our home were very creaky. We had new carpet put down upstairs and the contractors were supposed to screw down the subfloor but apparently forgot my son's room which was the worst in the house. I was looking for an alternative to having a professional come in and pull up his carpet when I found this. It worked! You can't see where the screws entered the carpet or feel them after you snap off the heads. No more creaky floors! Best $25 I've spent in a long time! Highly recommended.

RLUCK: I used it in old oak plank flooring, the narrow kind common in the 60's.
It works, most of the time, but the most frustrating thing is that it ends up taking many screws to solve a squeak. I wish I had realized how bad it would be because 50 didn't even come close for a 450 sf area across three rooms and a hallway. A single small squeak tended to need five or more screws to get things locked down enough to eliminate it. Order extra screws proactively and get knee pads if you don't already have them.
Also, about 1/5 of the time at least, the screw would not snap off. When that happened, I usually had to back the screw out and try again nearby. Some specific screws just didn't seem to want to snap no matter where I put them in an area, but I cannot be sure it didn't have something to do with the wood at that spot--wasn't going to bother getting scientific about it.

Wilson: Picture this: Fran Drescher laughing, while she is scraping her fingers down a chalkboard, all while jumping up and down on a set of bagpipes. That is the squeak I have been living with for the past 10 years. The real annoying part was that it came and went depending on the temperature and humidity, so no one could reliably prepare for the sound that was going to be unleashed by stepping on my own little piece of hell on earth. I would have gladly traded spaces with that family in Poltergeist. Now, however, I will have to cancel my appointment with Ghost Hunters thanks to the exorcism I performed with SQUEEEEEK NO MORE.

Although I suspected the supernatural, the real nature of the squeak was mechanical. It was caused by the subfloor rubbing against a metal air duct that runs between our first and second floors in my master bedroom. It was unavoidable. If I tried sneaking to bed after a night at the pub, the squeak would wake my wife and let her know exactly how late I was out. Six years ago we had the carpet replaced and at that time I used a gross of decking screws to secure the subfloor securely to the joists. I thought I beat the squeak. But as I mentioned, conditions...
