Best Answer

Usually, squeaking in furniture is caused by wooden and/or metal parts rubbing against each other.

In recliners, lubricating metal connections with a small amount of oil (small so it won't drip on your carpet), may eliminate some squeaks.

Wood-to-wood squeaks can sometimes be eliminated by installing additional screws or bolts to prevent movement. Another alternative is to disassemble joints, where feasible, and re-assemble using glue and longer or tighter nuts or bolts to prevent movement.

If the squeaking comes from wooden parts that are SUPPOSED to be moving, lubricating the surfaces with silicon spray or wax can help to eliminate the noise.

Can I install laminate over an old hardwood floor that squeaks?

Covering a hardwood floor with a laminate is not going to solve your squeak problem. The old floor will still squeak until you address the squeak and fix it. Wood floors squeak because a nail loosens at one end of a board, the wood swells and rubs due to weather, etc. But the problem can be easily solved. If you have exposed joists underneath, you can have someone walk above you and find the squeak spot, then you can shim that spot, drive an angled screw through to hold the shim. That's one way. What you need to do is visit a good flooring or hardware store and ask for the tools and products to fix your old floor. There are simple products that are inexpensive and easy to use. Save your hard wood floor. There is no value in laminate. Have you ever walked on one? Talk about noise!
