When old carpet needs to come out, proper removal is the first step toward a clean, prepared space.
99 Carpets provides professional carpet removal and disposal services throughout New Jersey. We remove old carpet, padding, and tack strips when required as part of the project.
Whether you're preparing a room for new carpet, changing to a different type of flooring, renovating a property, or simply need old carpet removed and taken away, we can evaluate the project and provide an estimate based on the actual scope of work.
If you're planning to install new carpet after the removal, 99 Carpets can also help with carpet selection, padding, measuring, and professional installation.
