After 100 screws I found your video. This fixed my issue. Thank you❤
Awesome and hopefully you removed the other 99:)
Excellent video. Thank you!
You are welcome!
This is better than most videos I seen… ima try this with my new place..
Great to hear.
This is the most well explained video on topic! Excellent job my good sir!😁👍 My mom's up stairs stairs are squeaking all the way up and down the stairs. It has carpet as well. I'm going to see what method I could use to solve it! Thanks again!
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent video!! (Strangely enough, I just watched the other video you were referring to right before this)
Thanks!
Cool, thanks!
Often, the stringers can be located with an inexpensive stud finder. The magnet will show locations of the original screws.
Good idea.
Thank you so much! I understand now
Glad it helped!
easy to understand. might put some screws on mine and slap a carpet on the stairs
What if you don’t have a center stringer? You didn’t comment on that , that’s my problem. Any suggestions or you don’t know.
What type of stairway do you have then? or you don't know?
I have the same problem no mid stringer.
Great vedio, you explained everything perfectly thank you , being a single woman every time I call someone to fix something the see money
You are so welcome
What would you do to stop the squeaking if there are no stringers in the middle of the stair treads?
You might need to open up under the stairs and add supports. This can be done from above by removing stair steps also.
@@stairbuilding Would using pocket screws to join the step to the riser to stop the rubbing work?
Can 6" x 8" angle brackets be used on a staircase leading to second floor to stop squeaking/crunching noise? The stairs have no center stringer and are 3' wide. The drywall has been removed to expose the stair underside. Thanks!
My noise is a pop/crack from the far right side of the tread. Can a screw reach a stringer all the way on each side of the tread or is the stringer on the sides covered by, what I think is called, the stringer fascia or skit?
It's difficult to suggest how your stairs are built, but that's the best part of this type of repair with carpet, you can remove screws and try again.
Could a stud finder be used to find a stringer?
In some cases, absolutely.
Great.
I’m stoned, have squeaky stairs, and power drills 😅
I’m off to go put some screws in my stairs 💪
Thank you for the video? what size screw would you suggest for stairs with carpet?
Maybe, between 2 and 3 inches.
And what if their is no opening behind the stairs
Lazy way round screwing through the carpet , also will be fun when you want to take the carpet up
What type of screw should I use? And what size would you recommend?
I would think a two and one half inch long screw might work.
hi my stairs does not have stringer and i do not have access to the bottom as well. how i know there is no stringer as basement stiars are accessible and they do not have it. any advice on it
Try to find the squeaking by stepping on the steps at different parts of the stairway and then see if you can use a screw to prevent the movement. Sometimes you will need to open up under the stairway, if you can't use screws from above.
Is it normal new vinyl planks installed on stairs squeaks still a week later?
It will depend on the product and installation. Check with the manufacture for more information about product failure.
@@stairbuilding thank you!
There is no stringer under our stairs
Please take time, don't rush. Take the carpet up, it will go back down just fine. Don't be putting screws through your carpet, that is so damn lazy. Take the carpet up, you will see where the nails or screws are and just add where they are. Also run some along the front of the step. Use a jig $15.00 to put some screws into the back through the step if you don't have access to the back of the staircase. Put the carpet back, the gripper rods will still work and the carpet will be programmed after the years of it being there to sit back neatly. It will only take about an hour start to finish, or just drill in screws until you hit jackpot on each step. So lazy my friends but it can seam scary to take up a carpet so I do understand, believe me it is not !
Thanks for sharing and it can also depend on how the carpet was installed. Glued or pieces installed in larger sections might be difficult to remove and replace.
So you are telling me that if the first screw misses the stringer, i just have to screw in more screws until i find the stringer? Genius! 😂
Exactly, Brilliant Interpretation:)
I mean, you could just give up and take a shower and forget about the whole project after you miss the first one 👍
That's great not great if you can't get under the stairs.,., ☹️.
👍📐
Just paint them : ) )
