Why it matters
Why floors squeak (and why it gets worse)
A squeak is movement – a board rubbing a nail, a gap between the floor and the subfloor, or joists that have dried and shifted. It rarely fixes itself. The looser it gets, the more the boards wear and the louder it becomes. We find the exact spot, re-secure the floor to the subfloor or joists, and stop the noise before it turns into a bigger repair. Most squeaks are simple movement between the floor and the joists below – and joists in Ottawa homes are typically spaced 406, 508 or 610 mm apart (Ontario Building Code), so finding and re-securing the exact moving spot is the whole job.

Why us
Why Ottawa homeowners choose Solomon Flooring
You get an Ottawa team that treats a squeak as a symptom, finds what is actually moving, and fixes it properly – instead of a quick patch that comes back in a month.
Usually yes. In most homes we can re-secure the floor from above with little disruption. Only severe cases need boards lifted.
What causes floor squeaks?
Movement between the floorboards, subfloor and joists – loose fasteners, gaps, or wood that has dried and shifted with the seasons.
Do you fix squeaky stairs too?
Yes, staircases are one of the most common squeak jobs we do.
Will the squeak come back?
When the cause is fixed properly it stays fixed. We address the movement itself, not just the symptom.
Is this the same as floor repair?
It is part of our repair work. If we find a damaged board or a soft subfloor behind the squeak, we will quote that separately and honestly.
Are you insured?
Yes, fully insured.

Ottawa specifics
Why the fix has to reach the framing
A squeak that comes back was never fixed at the source. The noise is a board rubbing a fastener or lifting off the subfloor, and the subfloor flexing over a joist bay. We locate the movement, re-secure the floor down to the subfloor or the joist itself, and where it helps, use an adhesive-and-screw approach rather than nails alone, which is quieter over time. Because joist spacing is regular, once we find one loose bay we know where to check next – and that is how a floor goes quiet and stays quiet.
