You will fix a squeaky floor by fastening the floorboards more securely to the floor using nails. You will need to pre-drill holes slightly smaller than the nail shank to prevent the floorboards from splitting. Small squeaks can be eliminated by sprinkling some talcum powder or powdered graphite along the seams of the floorboards.

Have to go under the house and have someone in the house stepping on the squeak and then you have to shim the floor. Cost maybe $5 for the shims.

If you have teenagers, you don't fix them. That way you can hear them sneaking out!
