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 Newtown properties
Need old carpet taken out in Newtown? We lift carpet, underlay, gripper strips and staples, take it all away, and leave the subfloor swept and ready. In Newtown, where homes are mostly Victorian terraces, workers' cottages and shop-top apartments, that often means planning access and protecting what's underneath.
Newtown's terraces and cottages frequently have original hardwood or Baltic pine boards, and many are rentals or share houses.
Lifting carpet from Newtown terraces
Terraces often hide original boards under carpet. We lift carefully, pull every staple and tack strip, and avoid prying damage so the boards are ready to sand. Narrow hallways and stairs mean old carpet is cut into small rolls before carrying out.
Careful removal in Newtown's heritage homes
We take extra care around skirting boards, architraves and fireplace hearths in older homes, so removal doesn't damage period details.
End-of-lease carpet removal in Newtown
For landlords and agents, we can remove worn carpet between tenancies to fit tight changeover dates, and coordinate with new flooring if you're replacing it.
Carpet Removal questions from Newtown
Everything Sydney homeowners and businesses ask before booking a flooring install.
Will removing carpet damage my original floorboards?+
We lift carpet and gripper strips carefully and pull every staple, so boards are left ready to sand rather than gouged.
Can you remove carpet between tenants?+
Yes. We schedule around lease-change dates and can coordinate new flooring straight after.
Do you only remove carpet, or install new flooring too?+
We do both. Many Newtown customers book removal on its own, but we can also install new carpet or hard flooring straight after.
What's left once the carpet is removed?+
A swept subfloor with carpet, underlay, gripper strips and staples removed, ready for paint, sanding or new flooring.
