Who to call for squeaky floorboard repairs

I'm guessing that a carpenter is the best person to call, but is this work that a handyman or some other trade could do for cheaper?

"The best person to fix a squeaky wooden floor is a professional carpenter or flooring specialist. They can identify the real cause of the noise and repair it safely and permanently.
If the problem is minor, a skilled handyman might handle it at a lower cost, but for reliable and long-lasting results, a carpenter is the best choice."
