📚 FLOORING EDUCATION — WHY DO FLOORBOARDS SQUEAK?
Ever walked across a room and heard that familiar creaking sound? 👣
Squeaky floorboards can happen for a few different reasons:
🪵 Movement underfoot — Floorboards may rub against each other or their fixings as you walk.
🌡️ Changes in temperature and humidity — Wood can expand and contract as conditions change.
🔧 Loose boards or fixings — Movement beneath the floor can sometimes cause those annoying creaks.
The important thing to remember is that squeaks can have different causes, so understanding what's happening beneath the surface is the first step towards finding the right solution.
At Swan Flooring LTD, we know that good flooring starts with understanding the floor itself! 🏡
