Fixing floor squeaks

| Posted in General Discussion on

  I noticed a tool being advertised in Fine Homebuilding a few months ago. This was a specialty attachment for a drill that enabled a person to screw through carpet in order to repair a floor pop/squeaks, but it would not damage the carpet. I can’t find the add, does anyone have a recommendation or know the name of that tool?

    I've used it, it works well.  It is helpful to have a heavy helper stand straddling the spot as the screw is driven home.
