The extended area of our kitchen island counter top has recently begun “squeaking“ when leaned on even slightly; we believe it might be loose. Any suggestions on what to do and/or who we might call to fix it?
Thanks,
Frank

More info needed, stone or Formica (aka wood), or other? Ours is stone and has metal supports that attach to the island frame and provide support for the stone counter top. I am GUESSING if you have a similar setup maybe the metal support has loosened, allowing a slight movement and the noise. Take a look at all of the bolts and see if these can be tightened.
Hope this helps.

Maybe a couple shims between the countertop and cabinet???
