Step 4 · Remove Staples and Tack Strips

Inspect the subfloor for any staples left behind by the carpet installation. Use a pry bar or pliers to remove them. Then, locate and carefully pry up the tack strips that were used to hold the carpet edges in place. Be sure to remove all pieces so the surface is smooth.
