Uplift & Removal of Old Flooring: what it is and who it's for
What it is
We take up your old carpet, underlay, vinyl or laminate, pull out old gripper and staples where needed, and take it all away.
Who it's for
Anyone having a new floor fitted, landlords clearing a property between tenants, and people who don't have the time, tools or transport to deal with it.
When you need it
Before a new floor goes down, after a leak, or when clearing a property.
Why a professional fit matters
Old flooring is heavy, dusty and awkward. Lifting it properly protects the subfloor and leaves a clean base for the new floor.
- £40 a room
- Old flooring taken away
- Saves you time and mess
- Room left ready for fitting
What happens if you leave it, or get it wrong
Doing it yourself often takes far longer than people plan for.
Lost weekends
Lifting and bagging several rooms takes hours.
Disposal hassle
Old carpet won't fit in most cars or bins.
Subfloor damage
Rough removal can damage boards.
Injuries
Old gripper and staples cut hands and knees.
Common mistakes we see
- Leaving old staples and gripper in place.
- Damaging boards when lifting glued flooring.
- Underestimating how much waste there is.
