What's included
- Existing floor lifted and hauled away
- Standard furniture moving included
- Subfloor inspected for leveling, repairs and moisture
- Careful cleanup and a final walkthrough
Carpet and cushion
The easiest removal and the one that most often reveals something. Carpet and pad lift quickly; the tack strip around the perimeter comes up with them, and the staples left in the deck have to come out rather than be flattened.
It is also where old pet damage shows itself. If moisture has been through the pad into the subfloor, we would far rather find it with the room empty than seal it under a new floor and have it find you later.
What we need from you
Standard furniture moving is included, so the sofa and the beds are our problem. What we ask you to handle is the small, fragile, valuable and personal — ornaments, electronics, anything irreplaceable — and to empty furniture, drawers, shelves and storage so they can be moved safely.
Ten minutes of that before we arrive saves the most common source of friction on a flooring job, which is not the floor at all.
Built for Pataskala homes.
Pataskala is the growth end of Licking County. It was a small village until 1996, when it merged with Lima Township and jumped to 28.72 square miles, and the population has kept climbing since — 14,962 in 2010, 17,886 at the 2020 census, a 19.5% rise in a decade. It sits about 19 miles east of Columbus, which is why so much of what we fit here is going into houses barely old enough to need it.
What that means underfoot is a lot of relatively young houses, and young houses have their own flooring pattern. They arrive with builder-grade carpet and thin sheet vinyl chosen to hit a price, and somewhere between year five and year eight the owners have had enough of it. That is a large share of what we get called for here, and it is straightforward work when the subfloor has been treated properly since it was built.
The other Pataskala pattern is scale. People here tend to do a whole floor at once rather than one room at a time, because the whole house is the same age and the same carpet. That is where financing through Synchrony Home tends to come up — 6, 12 and 36-month terms at 0% for qualifying customers, depending on the size of the purchase — and it is often the difference between doing the ground floor properly and doing half of it now.

Why does subfloor preparation matter?
New flooring performs best over a clean, dry, stable and properly prepared surface. We inspect the subfloor and explain any leveling, repairs or moisture concerns before installation begins, rather than covering a problem up.
