Carpet removal is not as easy as it looks,

The carpet itself is cut into three foot sections to be rolled up for the trash. After all the carpet is removed then we take out the staples. Carpet installers use thousands of staples to hold the carpet padding down to the sub floor and all of them need to be taken out. It is a time consuming job pulling every one out. It is very important to take them all out especially for refinishing your hardwood floors. If the sanders hit a missed staple you may not notice it until the refinished floor is completed. Also there are carpet strips that are on the perimeter of each room with carpet that need to come out.  We provide that service and it usually starts at 50 cents a square foot.  If there is carpet on the stairs we can remove that as well. The cost for that starts at 100 dollars per set of twelve steps.  Cost may vary depending on the number of spindles per set of stairs. There also may be a dumpster fee if you decide you want us to dispose of the trashed carpet, padding and tack strips
