Why Carpet Is Such a Pain to Get Rid Of
Carpet is heavier than it looks. A room's worth of carpet and pad rolled up is bulky and awkward, and if it's wet from a leak or a flood, it's a lot heavier and starts to smell fast. Pulling it up means dealing with tack strip, which is lined with sharp nails, and staples left in the subfloor.
Then you have to get rid of it. Big rolls of carpet don't fit in a trash cart, and remodel debris isn't something the curbside bulky pickup will take. Some flooring installers charge extra to haul off the old floor, and some don't do it at all. We take care of it.
How Carpet and Flooring Removal Works
- 1
Tell us the job. Let us know how many rooms, whether the carpet is still down or already pulled up, and if there's any tile or wood debris too.
- 2
Get your price. We give you the exact price before we start.
- 3
We pull it up and load it. We cut the carpet into manageable strips, roll it up, pull the pad, and load it all out of the house.
- 4
We haul it off. Everything gets hauled away the same visit.
Water-Damaged and Flooded Carpet
When carpet gets soaked from a leak, a burst pipe, or a storm, it needs to come out fast. Wet carpet and pad hold moisture against the subfloor and can start growing mold within a day or two. The Woodlands and nearby areas have seen plenty of flooding over the years, especially along creeks and low spots during big storms like Hurricane Harvey.
If your carpet is wet, call us quickly. We can pull it and haul it so the floor can start drying out. If you're filing an insurance claim, take photos before anything is removed.
A Word About Older Floors
Some of the oldest homes in The Woodlands date back to the 1970s. Older vinyl floor tiles, sheet vinyl, and the glue under them can contain asbestos, which is dangerous when it's broken up. If you have old vinyl or tile flooring from that era, have it tested before anyone tears it out. We can't remove or haul flooring that contains asbestos.
How Much Does Carpet Removal Cost?
| What affects the price | Why |
|---|---|
| Square footage | More rooms mean more carpet and pad to pull and haul |
| Already pulled up or not | Carpet that's still installed takes more labor |
| Wet carpet | Soaked carpet is much heavier and messier |
| Stairs | Stair carpet takes more cutting and careful work |
| Tile and wood debris | Heavy flooring materials cost more to dump |
