How we remove carpet
We pull the carpet from the wall, cut it into manageable strips, roll it and bag it. Underlay comes up next, then we lever out every tack strip around the perimeter. Finally we sweep the subfloor and pull leftover staples, leaving a clean concrete or timber surface ready for paint, sand-and-polish, or new flooring.

Carpet Removal for Five Dock properties
Need old carpet taken out in Five Dock? We lift carpet, underlay, gripper strips and staples, take it all away, and leave the subfloor swept and ready. In Five Dock, where homes are mostly brick family homes, semis and low-rise units, that often means planning access and protecting what's underneath.
Five Dock's established brick homes are often renovated for larger families, with flooring run through new open-plan extensions.
Whole-house carpet removal in Five Dock
In family homes on slabs, removal usually means carpet, underlay and gripper strips throughout. We scrape glue spots and pull staples so the slab is clean and ready for hybrid, laminate or timber.
Uncovering original boards in Five Dock
In older homes there may be several layers — carpet, underlay, lino or masonite — over the original timber. We remove each layer and leave the boards clear so you can see their condition before deciding on sanding or new flooring.
