Our Carpet Installation Process
Our process isn’t just fast — it’s engineered for cleanliness, safety, and precision. At Next Level, every flooring removal project follows a proven 6-step method designed to protect your subfloor, control dust, and leave your space perfectly prepped for installation.
We don’t cut corners, skip cleanup, or leave hidden adhesives behind. Whether you’re removing tile, hardwood, carpet, or epoxy coatings, our team arrives with advanced tools and works with military precision. Each phase is handled by trained professionals who treat your home or business with the care it deserves.
Our step-by-step system ensures consistent results, reduced turnaround times, and zero surprises. No mess. No delays. No damage.
Site Protection
We protect walls, cabinets, and entryways with plastic barriers, floor coverings, and HEPA filters to create a sealed work zone that blocks dust and debris completely.
Material Breakdown
Our team uses specialized tools to break down flooring layers quickly — including glue-downs, floating floors, and tile over mortar — without damaging the subfloor.
Dustless Removal
Using industrial dust-extraction systems, we remove each material layer while keeping the air clean. No sweeping, no lingering particles — just safe, breathable space.
Adhesive Elimination
Every trace of glue, thinset, or mastic is ground away with precision equipment to ensure your subfloor is smooth, level, and ready for new flooring.
Subfloor Inspection
We examine the exposed subfloor for moisture issues, damage, or unevenness and recommend repairs as needed before new flooring is installed.
Clean Final Sweep
Before wrapping up, we vacuum the entire site, dispose of debris, and walk the area with you to confirm a spotless, level, and installation-ready surface.
