Yo, the floor crunchs and sounds like a furniture version of a ghost story. But don't worry, Jiajia isn't here to help you "get rid of demons".
There are usually several common reasons why the floor "creaks", and then we have to be a detective and investigate them one by one
1.Flooring material and installation issues.
Solid wood flooring: deformed by humidity, squeezing each other when expanding, causing friction and sound.
Laminate flooring: The substrate swells when wet, or the fastening is not tight during installation, leaving gaps that make the floor sound when it moves.
Improper foundation handling during installation: for example, uneven floors or incorrect laying of underlayments.
2.Humidity and temperature variations.
Seasonal changes: In wet or dry seasons, wood floors can expand or contract due to moisture absorption or moisture loss, resulting in friction.
Changes in indoor temperature and humidity: Heating and air conditioning may cause changes in floor material and cause noise.
3.Use and maintenance.
Long-term pressure: If some places are weighed by furniture for a long time, it will also affect the uniformity of the force on the floor, resulting in a loud sound when walking.
Cleaning and maintenance problems: For example, too much water will cause the floor to absorb water and swell.
4.Foundation and structural issues.
The house is old: Older houses may have deformed timber structures or loose dowel pins, which can also cause the floor to rattle.
Solution: For humidity issues, use a dehumidifier or humidifier to adjust.
For loose floors, they can be properly reinforced.
If it is an installation problem, it may be necessary to ask a professional flooring master to re-lay or adjust.
Maintain your floors regularly, keep them dry, and avoid washing them directly with water.
The key to dealing with these "ghost noises on the floor" is to find the right way and eliminate all kinds of possibilities. If you're not good at these tasks, it might be safer to find a professional! However, it is still necessary to be gentle with your floor in daily use, otherwise it may be "**".
So, the "crunch" problem has been solved, and the floor of the house can return to its former quiet and peaceful, and everyone can walk around it as light as a dancer. Remember, treat every floor as gently as you do with a good life.
