Good stuff. Those old screws are wood screws. You need the thread-free bit with chipboard or the threads will just cut the fibres and make the hole too big again, and it creaks.

@le_james I'd honestly say lovely screws,, I've definitely gone with buy as and when needed - the right size and type definitely beat a job lot trade pack

Now I'm aware of needing the proper screws, I probably need a dozen boxes and to take up all the other carpets again!

A big pack of every type of screw is definitely the way to go. Nice to walk out to the garage and what I need is already there.
