Oh my, after hours and hours of searching through videos. Finally, I've found some clear, and concise instructions for our diy project. Thank you both!!

Should've sprayed the underlayment with light water spray to prevent fibers floating

[evelynmills]

The couple who DIY together stay together 🙏

Oh my goodness. I am 69 years old and after viewing your video I realize that pulling up the carpeting in the bedroom was a lot easier that I could ever imagine. I got started on it. Thank you so very very much for posting this. Do it yourself video

My husband & I have been talking about pulling up our carpet & putting down wood floors. I'm so glad I found your channel! This video has been such a big help! Thank you! Keep the DIY's coming! ☀️

Stopping mid-job to tell you guys how helpful your video was. Thank you so much! It gave me the motivation to get to work. ❤️

[monicamyers]

I usually never comment on videos to give any recognition lol BUT thank you lovely couple for this. My fiancé and I are first time homebuyers and we are new to a lot of this whole remodeling thing.. well (mostly me). So this will be our first assignment for the interior of the home. 😊

Thank you very much for this detailed instruction about taking up old carpet. I have been having problems with allergies to dust. I realized recently that the old carpeting in my condo has to go. I have never taken up old carpet before. Your instructions really are helpful. Grateful to both of you!

[demelzapoldark]

Thanks for showing and explaining this process and tips to protect myself! I have severe Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and am alone. This will really help me plan a good way to do it. I was thinking of getting a rolling stool for furniture painting and I think Ill get one for this project to roll along after I get the first strip up and to pull up the tack strips as well. Slow and steady with a great plan wins the race!

[patriciaearling]

You two work well together. You have inspired me to finally taking out my bedroom carpet!

[zonderblu]

This video gave me confidence to do the project in my daughter’s room. With the help from my 9 yr old boy and 12 yr old daughter. They said it’s the best quality time. 😂 Thank you for your video!!

[andrewdille]

I like that you cut the carpet on the underside. This prevents any chance of cutting into the wood floor. I am going to follow your lead. Thanks for the video.

[jeanwilson]

Thank you for the very informative and educational carpet removal video! Cutting the carpet into chunks and rolling and taping has made disposal so much easier! I'm removing carpet from a 1950's home and there's hard wood underneath the carpet. Since I can't do a room at a time, I'm taking out the tack strips but leaving the carpet and pad. I'm just doing small sections at a time for each step. I've found that I can take out the tack strips and nails and let the carpet re-cover the edges until I have time to cut and pull the carpet. Then I am tackling the pad and staples last.

This video was so informative taking me through the whole process in detail. I’m hoping that after watching this video, my husband will be on board with replacing the carpet sooner than later. You two are truly a power couple!

[onthescenewithculturequeen]

I love this. This is old school Black love ❤

[rebeccagroessler]

I love how you cut and rolled it into sections! I’m doing this by myself this Saturday. Thanks for your video!

[ivonnelopez]

I need to remove our carpet it’s disgusting. Thank you.

[adoraniketa]

I'll need this video when I remove the carpet from my stairs 😅😓 Thanks DIY Power Couple!

[deanabossio]

What a joyful, good looking and talented couple. Thank you!

Thanks for sharing! I like the idea of cutting the carpet into sections and rolling it up to discard.

As an allergy sufferer, 4:00 is good to know!
