Hey all,

So I will be moving into a 70 year old house soon. There is some old carpet that needs removed. I already had a contractor come out and he tore a corner up and inspected it and said the hardwood floors underneath looked good.

He gave a quote of $2700 to remove the carpet and clean the floors for 3 rooms.

I was having some friends over this weekend to help clean and was debating doing it ourselves. I have a decent idea of getting the carpet out, but are unsure of what should be done with the hardwood floor.

Any help or pointers?

      I don’t know about glue, but it was for sure used as carpet padding in a certain Era. Worth looking up when that was and having it tested.
