Screws sticking out of my sub floor?
I installed sub flooring to lay linoleum tile over. Some of the screw heads are not flush with the surface. Anyone know how to smooth them out without taking the heads off? Is there something I can put over them? I don't want them to cut through my tiles.

No way to do it unless you remove the screws and install them in a new location. They should have sunk in to a flush or sub flush position if the supports are solid. Get a screw gun and use a drywall driver to install the screws. This bit will give a solid flush installation. Cost for the bit is about $3.

Screw them in further until they're flush. Relocate them if necessary or pre-drill/countersink.
