Why Remove Old Carpets?

Carpet removal is often necessary for several reasons:

  • Renovation: Installing new flooring requires a clean slate, and removing the old carpet is the first step in the renovation process.
  • Health Concerns: Over time, carpets accumulate dust, allergens, and other debris that can negatively affect indoor air quality.
  • Wear and Tear: Old, worn-out carpets can detract from the aesthetic of your home or office. Removing them is key to freshening up your space.

How Long Does Carpet Removal Take?

The time required to remove your old carpet depends on several factors, such as the size of the room and how the carpet was originally installed. On average, carpet removal is a quick job, often taking less than 30 minutes for a standard room. Larger rooms or more complex installations may take longer. If your carpet has been glued down or fitted with difficult-to-remove accessories, it may extend the process slightly.

We aim to complete the task as quickly and efficiently as possible, minimising disruption to your day. Whether it’s a single room or an entire building, we have the experience to handle the job with speed and precision.
