"Cannot rate highly enough. Scott and Rich did a great job lifting the carpet and pad, refastening the subfloor and reinstalling pad and carpet. The floor, three years old used to squeak like an 1800’s relic. Now thanks to Tomahawk it’s quiet as can be. Good work!"

"Kaydn was hard working, very personable, and clearly focused on fixing our carpet problem—-which he did. Excellent communication to identify our needs, brought all the right equipment, and stayed with the project until completion. Highly recommended!"

"We have used Seacoast Flooring for several projects in our home. First we had them do both bathrooms and they did a wonderful job. Then later we had them remove carpet and and tile in our entire first floor and replace it with gorgeous hardwood. Most recent job is to install carpeting in our upstairs bedrooms. I can't say enough about their workmanship and professionalism. When they say they stand by the work they mean it. They are wonderful to work with. Thank you!!!"

"The original carpet was defective and Kelley came back , removed it, and replaced the home with new carpeting. They stood behind their product, installation, and reputation. I have no problems recommending them or having them do anything for me in the future."

FAQs for carpet repair, refasten, or stretch projects in South Portland, ME

Removing a rug costs around $0.40 to $0.50 per square foot. This includes the fee for a contractor to roll up the rug and haul it away in a vehicle for disposal or recycling. If they need to move furniture, they might charge an additional $0.25 to $0.30 per square foot of furniture.

If your carpet has minor damage—like a single area that requires stretching, patching, or cleaning—it might be less expensive to pay for carpet repair than remove and replace it. Repairing carpet costs around $210 per project.

The cost of carpet cleaning is about $190 for a three-bedroom home, so it’s a good idea to have your carpet cleaned at least once a year. But most carpeting only lasts 10 years. If your carpet is nearing the end of its life span, it might be more cost-effective to remove and replace your carpet than to clean and repair it. The average cost to install a new carpet is about $1,800.

Search our directory of carpet removal companies and services to find an affordable, screened contractor near you. All HomeAdvisor listings are vetted, reviewed, and rated by homeowners, so you can be sure to find a local pro qualified for your project. Get at least three quotes to compare prices and the timeline for your project.

Commercial carpet removal usually costs on the lower end of the carpet removal price range, around $1.10 per square foot or even less. Carpet installation contractors often offer discounted rates for larger projects, like commercial carpet removal and installation. Similarly, you might be able to negotiate a lower residential carpet removal cost if the carpet is pulled up throughout your entire home.

Most cities accept old carpets as bulk trash, but you may need to schedule a special pickup and prepare the carpet properly. Remove any nails or glue residue, cut the carpet into manageable pieces, and roll and secure them. Alternatively, you can take your old carpet to a local recycling center for a small fee, where it can be processed and repurposed.

Yes, you can remove carpet yourself if you're ready for a labor-intensive task. DIY carpet removal requires heavy lifting and tools like utility knives, pliers, and pry bars. The process is generally straightforward but time-consuming for stapled-down carpet. If your carpet is glued down or you're worried about damaging the subfloor, hiring a professional is best to ensure the job is done safely and efficiently.
