Everyone I know with a new construction home winds up with squeaky floors after a couple of years. How can I prevent squeaky floors from occurring with my project?
Squeaks and cracks are two of the biggest irritations to new home owners. Many of these problems are caused by contractors trying to “cut corners” by using less expensive construction techniques and workers (as you know, Madison has a very tight labor market). At Bowers Construction, Inc., we employ seasoned veterans who utilize the highest quality construction methods. For example, we screw and glue all plywood to the floor joists. This provides the greatest structural quality to guard against squeaks.
