Talcum powder on squeaky floor?
Read this remedy on an inspection report somewhere. Can anyone shed any light on this? Does this work and how?
Squeaky Floor Are not a matter of great concern. The condition can be reduced or eliminated by the application of talcum powder between the joints.  774 Manor Road Staten Island, NY 10314 718-514-3393

Re: Talcum powder on squeaky floor?
It might work as a temp fix but the only way to stop squeaks is to properly attach the subfloor to the joists. I can't see going into the crawl space, moving all the insulation and attempting to squirt powder along a specific area.
Do it right and use Counter Snap screws.  Stephen Stanczyk Washington State Licensed Home Inspector # 221 President, Washington Association of Property Inspectors (WAPI) (253) 241-0602 calls answered until 10pm Pierce County -Thurston County - King County - Snohomish County
