Professional carpet removal for San Jose homes and businesses
Pulling up carpet looks simple until you are halfway through it. Under the carpet there is padding stapled to the subfloor, and around every edge there is tack strip nailed down with hundreds of exposed nails. Then you are left with rolls of carpet that are far heavier than they look and will not fit in any bin.
We do the whole tear-out for San Jose homes: carpet up, padding up, staples pulled, tack strip removed, subfloor swept and ready for the new flooring to go down.
Because everything from Willow Glen bungalows and Rose Garden Spanish revivals to sprawling Almaden and Evergreen tracts with three-car garages in San Jose, we frequently find hardwood underneath that the owner did not know was there — and older homes can also have pre-1980 adhesives and underlayment that need appropriate handling rather than a crowbar and optimism.

Working in San Jose, CA
San Jose sits in Santa Clara County, and our crews cover it as part of their regular weekly route.
San Jose is everything from Willow Glen bungalows and Rose Garden Spanish revivals to sprawling Almaden and Evergreen tracts with three-car garages, and that determines how a carpet removal job actually runs.
Access is the other factor. In San Jose, San Jose is largely flat with wide streets and good driveway access, which keeps labour time — and therefore cost — lower than in San Francisco.
Everything we collect in San Jose is routed through Newby Island Resource Recovery Park in San Jose rather than the nearest convenient hole in the ground.
It is also worth knowing that San Jose's zero-waste goal and the Newby Island recovery park mean incoming mixed loads are mechanically sorted, with metal, wood and cardboard pulled for recycling.
