Re: creaking sound on the wood floor
I've installed hardwood floors before (including a beautiful 8" wide natural cherry one I had custom-milled for one of my homes) and have never used or am familiar with this wood clip variant. A look at the videos of them shows them to be the quick n' easy but they are going to float - and anything floating is always going to make noise, I don't think it's avoidable. Only a rigid floor done over proper overlayment that is nailed in is going to be quiet. That's just my opinion in working with floors and hardwood furniture over the decades. If quiet is important, you best go back to traditional installation methods (Air-powered floor nailers are the way to go). DO NOT put anything in the joints, the floor is going to move with seasons and the joints need to be able to sustain movement.
