If you are not a technically skilled person, even minor repairs such as replacing tap washers or fixing a leak can become tedious job if you’re attempting DIY methods. Sometimes things may get worsened, ending up damaging the tap itself! Same thing also may happen when you attempt minor repairs on electrical or electronic appliances, lightings, and switches etc. But don’t worry; you’re not alone in this category!
You may be a qualified computer wizard, an artist or banker
etc. and you know that each profession needs its own expertise. Works such as
plumbing, house cleaning, electrical repair etc. are also qualified professions
which need to be done by respective tradesmen. If a House Officer tries to repair
his computer, you know that the end result can be disastrous!
Annoying Creaky Floorboards
Squeaky floorboards are a nasty disturbance for everybody in
the home as it creates that irritating noise whenever someone walks around.
This can happen in both older and modern homes. Squeaking of floorboards is a
sign that the boards are rubbing against each other because loose nails may be
allowing the boards to move or the shrinking of wood has created a small gap
for movement.
If the squeaking board and its adjacent ones seem springy, the
joists below may be defective, and you need an expert hand to make it alright. Repairing a creaky wooden floor is not a major
repair work if you can get the best home maintenance professionals in the town.
A qualified carpenter can fix this issue quite affordably. So don’t carry on
suffering those annoying creaks and strained noises any more.
Your hardwood or carpeted flooring will not get any damage
if the repair work is carried out by verified technicians. Search the internet
for flooring specialists and check their websites to shortlist a few. Also
visit their social media pages and listen to testimonials and customer feedback
to finalise a service provider. You may also take free quote from two standard
companies to compare the prices, and checking the quality of materials they use
for decking and flooring.
For home cleaning and maintenance works, always rely on
those service providers who are known for high quality craft and customer
service.
At the same time let’s say, if you have some technical
abilities and like to do small repair works for yourself, you can always try
DIY methods where you’re confident. See what a house owner did when he realised
that people won’t take his home for rent because the floor is squeaky and really
annoying. He used a drill and screwed some small self tapping screws in the
joints of the squeaking boards and found that the disturbing creaky noise has
gone forever! But when squeak occurs due to shrinkage gaps and joint stiffness,
it’s better to use glued joint than drilling down the screws.
If the squeaky noise is small, inspect the floorboards
closely. If you’re lucky, you’ll find that the cause may be due to rubbing of
the boards against each other. In that case, apply some talcum powder along the
seam where the boards are rubbing and then walk few steps on the floorboards
for the powder to set in and eliminate the disturbing noise.
