What is the reason for the squeaking of wooden floors?

Wang Mei recently moved into a new home in the south of the city. While feeling the joy of living in a new home, she was a bit uncomfortable with the wooden floors installed at home. It turns out that there are several places in the living room and bedroom. Whenever people walk by, the floor under the feet will make a loud noise. The sound is not big, but it is very annoying. The floor made a strange noise, and many people who have renovated their new home have encountered it. In the end, is the quality of the floor, or is it awkward?

More reasons for abnormal floor noise

Most because the installation is not in place

Yan Shifu, who has been engaged in floor installation for a long time, told the Chengdu Business Daily that there are many reasons for the sound of the floor, but generally you can find the reason from three aspects. First, the reasons for product quality, such as excessive looseness between the floor and the trough; second, the installation is not in place, such as uneven ground, keel installation is not in place, nails are not fixed, etc.; third, consumers will also sound due to improper use and maintenance. For example, some consumers use inferior essential oils for maintenance. Because of the rosin in the essential oils, they penetrate into the seams of the floors and cause a squeaking sound. In addition, if there is a soaking phenomenon or mopping the floor with a wet mop, the floor will also sound when it is slightly arched. However, Master Yan believes that in most cases, the installation is not in place is an important reason for the floor creaking.

Install beware of small details

Floor shrinkage seams don't forget to reserve

According to Yan Shifu, after the floor is finished, the sound is heard, and the treatment method is relatively small, and in most cases, it cannot be completely cured. To completely solve it, only re-tighten the ground dragon and reload the floor. For how to install the floor, Master Yan gave some of his own experience: pay attention to some small details when installing the floor.

First of all, before installing the ground dragon, it is generally used to punch holes with 12mm electric hammer drills, so the wooden rafts of at least 18-20mm or more are useful. When installing solid wood floor drilling, the hole diameter must be smaller than the floor nail, so the floor can only be nailed; secondly, the raft material of the hoe is harder than the material of the earth, the hard shrinkage force of the wood is small, and the ground dragon is not easy to put the wood. The rifle is pulled up; then, for some cases where the ground level difference is several centimeters, the installation master will generally place some knife-shaped cork or three-ply board under the ground dragon to ensure the level of the dragon. At this time, it is necessary to pay attention to the fact that the ground dragons with a height of 2.5 cm or more must be fastened to each other by short-terrain dragons; the floor shrinkage joints of more than 1 cm should be reserved around the wall to avoid climate change or the moisture content of the floor does not match. Expanded to arch.

[The floor ringing method is different.]

Phenomenon 1: There is sound when the climate is dry or wet

Reason: excessive dryness of the climate weakens the nail holding force of the floor and keel, and the connection between the floor and the gutter is loose; excessive moisture causes the floor to expand laterally, causing expansion to slightly squeeze the arch, so that the keel is loosened.

Treatment: Observe when the climate is normal. If there is no obvious sound, you do not have to trim it.

Phenomenon 2: Sometimes there is no sound

Reason: If there is a certain place to step on, sometimes there will be sound, sometimes not. This kind of situation is mostly because the floor nail is smaller than the drill hole of the solid wood floor, and there is loose space between the male and female on the floor.

Treatment: When installing solid wood floor drilling, the hole diameter must be smaller than the floor nail, so that the floor only eats nails.

Phenomenon 3: Step on a foot

Reason: There is no fixed connection between the wooden dragon and the ground raft, or the raft material is too soft and not too hard to be pulled up by the dragon.

Treatment: The material of the raft is harder than the material of the earthworm, and the hard shrinkage force of the wood is small. It is not easy for the earthworm to pull the raft to keep it firm. Chengdu Business Daily reporter Jiang Tao
