Not sure what kind of tradesman would be best for a squeaky stair fix (pretty much every stair and no easy access from below. )It is 1998 new build house. Also what sort of cost? Will be covered by carpet afterwards. Thanks

You will have to remove the plaster board from underneath and fix more timber under the stair joints.

Stuart · Answer

There must be access underneath usually plasterboarded over. This has to be removed to gain access to stabilize correctly.....otherwise its a screw and glue bodge from above

Hire a decent carpenter and get the work done professionally

Ravaun · Answer

Carpenters can ensure the squeaking is removed, by removing flooring and ensure any defects are amended.

Kevin · Answer

A carpenter would be the best trade man in the instance. They work with woodwork and the floorboards are that of wood

Sprinkle talc on all gaps and brush into crevices ,this should solve the problem .then replace your carpet

Robert · Answer

Very difficult to stop a squeaky staircase. The ideal way would be from underneath as most of the noise comes from where the riser meets the step. A good handyman or joiner would be ideal that has had experience of this type of thing.

David · Answer

If carpet has not been laid as yet' my honest answer would be to paint the joints of the stair risers with linseed oil.
Like you would a willow cricket bat.
