You might want to mention that you need to screw into your floor support beams.

I recommend using a putty knife for the filler. You will use much less per hole to fill, and it will apply the filler much better.

If you have unfinished basement, it’s a lot cheaper and easy to just put glue between the gaps and add a 2x4 for support on the squeak area

I've put about 80 of these into the bedroom to fix 90% of squeaks. One suggestion .... DO NOT hold the black thing while you're driving in the screw. My driver slipped and cut my nail pretty badly. 4 weeks later, finger still shows the damage done.

This was really good!
Thank you for sharing honey!

Demo was good..
You didn't show what you used to colour in floor

Will this work in laminated floor? I like this product as the installer did not put screws in the floor to eliminate squeak before they installed the laminated flooring.

Could you tell where the holes are after filling the holes?

I have to do my hallway from my living room to my kitchen but how do I find the Joist underneath the wood floor

[hothahahihi]

How do you know where to drill? Does it supposed to drill to the joist?

Will the floors start sqeeking again after a few years? I heard that the threads is not enough to hold down the floors after many steps...normally the screw head is what keeps the floor down..not the screw threads??? Does anyone know?

I have plywood and chipboard floor in my rented apartment. It’s creaking all over the place. Can’t imagine I’ll have any luck with this kit.

[abdulwadodkassim]

Dont try this at home u never no if there is electric wire or gas pipes etc

[lindacampbell]

Can this be used on laminate flooring?

[jaylove]

Can you drill into vinyl planks or is this just made for wood flooring?

[javirodify]

Why do you use the guide when drilling the hole? does it need to be done that way?

[Ashroyer]

I'll show you how to make sure the screws aren't noticable. At the end. Don't put screws too close together or you be able to tell.

[eagleoo]

How long is the drill bit, is it come with the package

[RickyG]

You didn't show what you used to color in floor as a finished product. That is the 2nd most important part of this whole job. I will not use this yet b/c I am not sure how well it blends in with the grain. Just sayin.

[roykropper]

Lol. Have fun drilling into mains pipes and cables

[joeschneider]

Don't waste your money that's not how professionals do it
