WOW if someone is giving you the information you need and basically giving you advice on what to do you should appreciate it . Some people want not only the information but they want it done for them🤦♀️
it would be nice to show people how to do it instead of talking and showing where the problem is..... (i cant wait people's reaction towards me.... let's see....) but seriously.......what if people do not have access underneath the stairs???????
He gave 2 suggestions for a temporary fix on top if you're unable to get beneath. Baby powder and powdered graphite (he also provides a link to where it's available to buy!)
I’m going to take another look including underneath but likely that last one. Thanks!
Great video, very informative! I'm going to do this right away as it's been driving me crazy!
Not sure if others aren't seeing your entire video, so many people asking about not having access to the bottom of the stairs (and some quite hateful ones at that!). Perhaps they aren't listening before they make their rude comments!
Tackling my squeaks today in UK! Plasterboard removed under stairs, wood adhesive applied, screws pre drilled to prevent cracking, next for PIR staircase LEDs then a layer of kingspan going in before new plasterboard
Verry helpful
i am gona apply soon its realy annoying when doors or stair squek 😊 thank you sir
With no access under stairs, the actual stair tread moves when you step on it in the middle and there is a gap at the front above the riser when no weight is on it, how do you fix this? Put glue in and try and screw it from above?
You called a skirt board a stringer 😢
I don't trust anyone telling me to use drywall screws in wood
what if it a second story stairs and no access to underneath?
I have carpet over my stairs and no access under the stairs. Are there any simple tightening nails/tools to fix squeaks without removing the carpet? Thanks
Same
not on stairs, but I used that kind of double-threaded snap-off screw kit to fix a super squeaky floor before. worked like a charm!
the trickiest part, both in stairs or floor, is to find where the supports are underneath (stringers or joists, respectively). my kit included a couple really long screws with just a 1/2" of the tip threaded, to help find those supports. if you drill that screw thru the surface and then it just spins and spins, it means you only hit air in that spot below. but if the screw keeps pulling in, it found your support of choice.
Unfortunately, you’re one and only solution is taking the carpet up fixing it and either putting it back or have someone replace it if the carpet is old enough and you’re able to afford it having carpet put on your stairs would definitely be cheaper to have installed as compared to a whole room.
Ok, but my problem is my floor is carpeted and I have no access underneath the stairwell.
Now what?

@@fungeneer Thanks, that might help. Do you know what kit it was that you used?
@@Steve_Hayden Squeak No More
@@fungeneer Thank you for the info and for taking the time out of your day to help me. It's nice to know there are ppl like you still out there. God bless
@@Steve_Hayden no problem, Bobbie! I'm actually happy to share this little invention. It's super handy and works really well! I think I went over this in another comment here, but the hardest part is just finding the joist or stringer below the walking surface. But they give you a different kind of screw to help with that. Once I'd find a joist, I'd leave that screw in it sticking out. Then I'd find the joist again maybe 6' away, then tie a string between those 2 screws. I could then follow my string line all the way down the joist, sinking in snap-off screws every 6" or so.
How long does a staircase last in council housing? And if there is a lot of creaking what would be te best method to do anyone ?
Thanks!
Squeak is gone. Thank you!
If I use powdered graphite first for a temporary fix, will I be able to use the construction adhesive later? I cannot access the underside of the stairs.
Drywall screws???
I have my stairs stripped down to the utility 1" pine they were built with. Preparing to install oak treads and risers made from 1/2" maple plywood (and I finished them). I cannot access underneath stairs without removing drywall. I've tried drilling 3 pocket holes into the tread and can 'pull' the riser tighter against the rear of tread. Before tightening the screws, I 'injected' Titebond glue down into the rougly 1/16" crack. Then I tightened the pocket screws (1 in middle, and 1 on each side) and the crack tightened up and glue squeezed out. 8 hours later, still squeaking. I was also thinking of injecting melted paraffin wax down into the crack. will the oak treads, glued down with urethan glue help the strength.
"Fixing" a thing like this temporarily just long enough to sell it is a really dick move. It feels a bit in the same way as painting over your water damage or mold knowing full well it doesn't address the problem.
That's true.
You know you’re a shady pos when you tell people to fix a problem temporarily for the sale of a house.
I'm putting a dog room under my stairs in a couple weeks, so I'm just going to glue and screw when I'm under there. easy peasy.
Best of luck! :)
I learn far better by being shown how to do something than being spouted to….
i have another question lol Could i cut Sonopan to put in between the framing of a interior wall and then use safe and sound on top? So it would be Sono, S&S, RC and then drywall.
Does this make sense?
Yes it definitely make sense to me! Sorry I’m two weeks late getting to your question! Let me know how your project turns out!! 😊
@@soundproofguide update: Ordered sonopan could be a few weeks. LAST question, should i carpet glue the sono to the dry wall or leave an air gap when placing sono in between the framing?
Not really cool to recommend this to aid realtors and hide something from buyers. Home buying is a nightmare enough without people actively making it worse.
Somebody ✊️ this guy!
😨
Just kidding
What a waste a five minute
I thought you would be showing us how to do it as oppose to just talking about it. I just wasted 5 minutes that I will never get back. 😡
All he did was talk is he a politician?
Junk!
Hmmm...I thought you were going to show us something. You need to also work on your studio setup -- bad lighting position and no diffuser, room echoes even with the soundproof pads displayed. I would work on this first, before telling people how to fix stairs 😂😂🤣🤣
I dont have access to go under stairs what can i do in that case
