How to get rid of squeaky noise walking on new vinyl floors?

[Smadar]

A vinyl floor was installed on the concrete floor in the bedrooms. The rest of the house has tiles. When walking on the vinyl floor the shoes and bare feet make a squeaky noise. When moving to walk on the tiles, the squeaking noise from shoes continues on tiles as well.

I read online that the squeaky noise comes from not installing the floor well. I would have thought that if it is the installation, the squeaking noise won’t happen on the tiles. It is as if something on the surface of the vinyl is attached to the shoes and this is why the noise occurs on the tiles as well. 

Does anyone have or had the same or similar issue?

I'm sorry tho hear that @Smadar,

Have you contacted the manufacture of the vinyl flooring to see if they have any suggestions?

Hello, 

I am back to report and ask for help.

After a few months of dealing with the shop I bought the floor from, I received the money back but I am still dealing with the problem of squeaking noise when walking on the Hybrid floor.

I was suggested by a Bunnings person to rough (Buffer the floor or scrub). 

I understand that cleaning businesses would do it. Because the area is small and the type of floor (Hybrid) , big machines would not be a good solution. 

Does anyone here know who will do it?

A name of a person or business would be appreciated.

Thank you,

Hello @Smadar 

I'm sorry but we are not allowed to endorse any specific trade. I suggest posting your query on Airtasker or Hipages. My best advice is to include as much information as you can and include a picture of the flooring so that you'll get a quick response back.

If you need further assistance, please let us know.
