Product Information

As featured on This Old House.

Note: Manufacturer no longer makes metal version of tri-pod. Tri-pod is now made of fiberglass (could be grey or black in color).

If you have teenagers, you may not want to fix that squeaky floor in the hallway. After all, squeaky floors can be a pretty effective “broken curfew detector” in the middle of the night. For most people though, a squeaky floor is an aggrevation they have to live with. "Squeeeeek No More" uses an innovative screw that locks the squeaky flooring to the joist, then breaks off below the surface. Simply place the appropriate alignment fixture over the carpet and drive one of the special screws through the fixture and into the floor.When it bottoms out, use the guide to snap it off below the surface, locking the floor to the floor joist. Very simple, and very fast. Carpet Kit Includes 50 Screws, Carpeted Floor Fixture, Driver Bit with stop, the Squeeeeek No More Joist Finding Screw and Instructions to help you find those joists. Made in the USA.

          I gave five stars to the manufacturer for customer service. I was having trouble using the drills which came with the product. I phoned the number for O'Berry Enterprises, talked to one of the O'Berrys and he immediately agreed to ship six more drills,free, no questions asked. They came within two days. Can't ask for better than that.

          These days it is difficult to find a product that works exactly as advertised. Here is one! Used to eliminate squeaks under carpet. Some people had lost sleep downstairs when squeaky floors woke them up! Not any more! This is well worth the cost. Better than lifting carpet and relaying subfloor.

              overall the product is useful, however finding the floor joist beneather the carpet and padding and subfloor is an unwelcome chore... (not your fault) i find the joist explorere screw (the one with the screwthreads on the very end needs constructuve improvement. the part that fits into the drill receiver is much too short resulting in srew wiggle and oftentimes unexpected release...fix by elongating this part and you will find more efficient use of implement.

                Comments about Squeeeeek No More Carpet Kit w/50 Screws:

                After YEARS of trying to ignore the squeaks in my carpeted living room floor, I looked up and found on the internet the info about the Squeek No More kit. And then, after procrastinating, I finally ordered the kit. [...] That evening, we set to work. Part of the issue was that the living room here is part of the original 1860's log cabin...no floor joists, but a subfloor and then a pine floor over ANCIENT BEAMS! At first, we had our doubts as to whether or not the product would work, BUT we had GREAT SUCCESS! Now we are using a "discerning ear" in the upstairs rooms of this old house. I am tickled to death with this product! [...] I already recommended this product to a friend who ALSO lives in an old house. Gave him the new catalog that was shipped with my order!
