Experiencing a void

If your flooring was installed using the floating method, it's possible that there isn't enough underlayment for the style of flooring you have, which will result in a hollow sound. Find out what was used to make the underlayer to establish whether it's the source of the noise. The underlayer can be made of anything from inexpensive foam to pricey cork. If the underlayment is fine but the hollow sound persists, you may decide to have your flooring installed again utilizing a new technique, such as the glue, nail, or staple down techniques.


Popping and locking

Have you ever moved across the floor and heard a familiar popping sound? The sound of your subfloor rubbing against any loose floor boards' nails is probably audible. This issue can be resolved by simply fastening down any loose planks, assuming the flooring installation wasn't done poorly. You might decide to replace all or part of your floor in that case. A skilled flooring installation crew can ensure the subfloor is level and the moisture barrier is adequate before beginning to install the engineered wood, laminate planks, or hardwood.
