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 Surry Hills properties
Need old carpet taken out in Surry Hills? We lift carpet, underlay, gripper strips and staples, take it all away, and leave the subfloor swept and ready. In Surry Hills, where homes are mostly Victorian terraces, converted warehouses and boutique apartment blocks, that often means planning access and protecting what's underneath.
Many Surry Hills terraces still have original hardwood boards hidden under carpet or lino, and warehouse conversions often sit on old concrete with uneven patches.
Lifting carpet from Surry Hills 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 Surry Hills's heritage homes
We take extra care around skirting boards, architraves and fireplace hearths in older homes, so removal doesn't damage period details.
Carpet removal in Surry Hills apartment buildings
In strata buildings we book the lift, protect common areas and remove all old carpet and underlay in bags or tight rolls. Glued-down carpet on concrete is scraped back so the slab is ready for the next floor.
Carpet Removal questions from Surry Hills
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.
Do you handle lift bookings and common areas in Surry Hills buildings?+
Yes. We work to building management rules, protect lifts and corridors, and carry everything out bagged or rolled.
Can you remove glued carpet tiles?+
Yes. We lift and scrape glued carpet tiles and remove the waste, and can work after hours.
Do you only remove carpet, or install new flooring too?+
We do both. Many Surry Hills 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.
