If you've got a squeaky and carpeted floor, however, you've got to make the decision to either cut a small strip of it up to install under or use screws that can be used through carpeting. DIYers will have to determine the problem before they can fix the tiles. If the issue is poor adhesion, grind or chip the existing thinset off the floor and tile and use the correct product. If there’s a plywood subfloor, it might be necessary to remove the tiles, lay down cement board, and then install the tile all over again.
