Date: 03/05/2020

Welcome to my new channel, I'm Chris and I'm a Maker!

 Learn how to remove carpet that was installed over existing hardwood flooring. This video will show a time lapse of how I do that, with some tips and tricks that I learned while doing it. 

Carpet removal: 0:44
Carpet Underlayment removal: 2:55

Key Take aways: 
-Use a scrap piece of wood under the carpet when cutting with a utility knife to protect the Hardwood underneath. 
-Cut the carpet in small strips for easier removal
-Wear gloves and thick soled shoes when removing carpet and underlayment because the nails and staples can be very sharp and hard to see.
