GLUE DOWN CARPET REMOVAL

When carpet is bonded with commercial adhesives, removal demands the right equipment and trained technicians. JBL Flooring Solutions provides expert glue down carpet removal in Hollywood, FL, for homes, condos, offices, retail, medical suites, and hospitality spaces. We remove the carpet, the pad when present, and all adhesive residue, then we prepare your floor for its next finish.

How Glue Down Carpet is Installed

Direct Glue Down

  • Carpet is adhered directly to a smooth substrate.

  • Common in commercial settings and high traffic corridors.

  • Excellent for wheelchairs, carts, and rolling traffic.

Double Glue Down

  • A dense cushion is glued to the floor, then carpet is glued to the cushion.

  • Adds comfort and extends the carpet’s life.

  • Removal requires extracting carpet, cushion, and both adhesive layers.

Bottom line: both systems bond aggressively. You cannot simply pull the carpet and be done. Adhesives must be mechanically removed to deliver a clean, smooth, and installation ready surface.

Why This Is Not A DIY Job

  • Industrial adhesives resist hand tools and consumer solvents.

  • Old installations span large areas and often include seams, tackless strips, and transitions.

  • Incomplete adhesive removal causes telegraphing, ridges, and bonding failures for the next floor.

  • Professional machinery, HEPA extraction, and skilled operators are required for safe, efficient results.
