Q: Should you remove baseboards before installing or removing carpet?

• <div><p>While not always required, experts recommend removing baseboards before removing old carpet and installing a new one. This practice leads to a smoother process and a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. Removing the baseboards allows for a seamless carpet installation without the risk of damaging either the carpet or the trim. It also provides a good opportunity to repaint or stain the baseboards and inspect the underlying wall for any issues. If you prefer a quicker option, you can carefully cut the old carpet along the edge of the baseboards, but this may result in a less polished installation for the new carpet.</p></div>

Q: Does carpet ruin hardwood stairs?

• <div><p>In most cases, carpeting isn&rsquo;t kind to the wood that it&rsquo;s attached to. Most carpet installation uses adhesive or nailing strips, both of which will damage wood. Conversely, you can choose to use an adhesive designed to be removed from wood, in which case carpeting can actually protect your hardwood stairs.</p></div>

Q: Is it normal to glue carpet down?

• <div><p>It is normal to glue carpet down, though it&rsquo;s not the only or the most popular method of installing carpet. Modern techniques include tack strips and stretching the carpet, but you might still find glued carpet in older homes or a home with a DIY&rsquo;d past. Removing a glued-down carpet will be harder compared to other methods of installation. </p></div>

Q: Do flooring companies recycle old carpet when it's replaced?

• <div><p>Some flooring companies recycle old carpet after replacing it. The broader flooring industry has been moving toward recycling more carpet material. However, whether an individual carpet gets recycled is up to the flooring company that removes it. When gathering quotes for new flooring in your area, ask each company about removal options and what they do with the material.</p></div>

Q: Why is my laminate floor lifting up?

• <div><p>A laminate floor will lift if it hasn&rsquo;t been installed with the proper expansion gaps around the room&rsquo;s perimeter. Laminate flooring naturally expands and contracts when indoor temperatures fluctuate, and without adequate room for expansion, the planks can lift off the subfloor. To avoid this, ensure your flooring installer knows to leave the proper expansion gaps.</p></div>
