A house creaks primarily due to the expansion and contraction of building materials, such as wood, as they respond to changes in temperature and humidity. This movement can create friction between structural components, leading to those characteristic creaking sounds. Additionally, settling of the foundation or structural shifts over time can contribute to creaking noises. Regular maintenance and inspection can help identify and mitigate excessive creaking.
