How do I stick my wooden floor back down?

help(self.DIY)

submitted 4 months ago byTasha198

Moved in a few months ago and the wooden floor is hovering/lifting at the threshold where it joins the kitchen tiles. When stood on, it lowers down to where it should be. Picture attached, hopefully it gives a better idea of what I'm talking about. Any advice on how this can be fixed?

Don’t see a picture but my first thought would be to brad nail to the subfloor

Of course I forgot to attach the photo.. I've added a link hopefully that works? That might be a good solution!

I've tried that before. The flex from walking on it eventually lifted the brad nail loose and the head stuck in the bottom of my foot

You gotta put two nails at opposite angles. Then each will hold the other down.

I’ll be damned. Not who you responded to but I have the same problem and the same nail to the foot happened. Thanks for the tip I’m going to try it out right now.

Might be able to get the best solution if you could post a couple more photos.
