Squeak Fix

Here is another squeaky floor fix. This works where there is a squeak between the sub floor and the finished floor when you have access from below. Locate the squeak and drill a hole the size of the nozzle of a can of spray foam through the sub floor only. Insert the nozzle and inject a small amount of foam. The foam will harden, stopping the movement between the two materials and the squeak. Set something heavy on the finished floor over the squeak until the foam cures.
