    Stubborn creaky floorboards

    Postby rangler » Sun Jan 30, 2011 3:10 pm

    Hi all and nice forum
    Posted this on another DIY forum but throught i'd post here too just in case

    I have a spare room in our house which creaks like hell, i thought ok lets get the boards up and have a nosey then glue back down and use screws instead of nails.
    Took me best part of 4 hours to get all the bloody nails out and 2 quite nasty cuts later theyre all out

    However i cannot get the two T&G chipboards to come free, video here
    Google "youtube.com/watch?v=4h3eqG3Ilzs"

    Can anyone suggest anything please.? Im tempted to just rip them up and tidy the edges afterwards then replace the chip boards with compressed ones ??

    Any Thoughts please.[code][/code]

    rangler,
    Looks like you still have some nails in place - give the board a good heave and replace them if the break.
    end
