Answer by Ice
You gotta tear it up some way and there is no real way to do it without messing up the floor. If you use any chemical such as goof off or goo be gone then you will definitely take the finish off. Unfortunately, your going to have to rip the tape up and then hope for the best and if not then you just have to re finish the floor

Question by happyoo3: How do you check if there are good floors under your carpet?
We bought an older home that has the original hardwood in the living room and hallways. The bedrooms are carpeted. It is an ugly carpet. I wonder if the original hardwood is under the carpet and if it is still in good condition. Is there anyway to check besides ripping up the carpet and hoping?

How much for carpet and laminate floors?

February 22, 2012 By Carpet FX 2 Comments

Question by Gi952: How much for carpet and laminate floors?
How much could it cost me to carpet or laminate my living room, dining room, and up the stairs?

Best answer:

Answer by Daddy of 5
For decent carpet with good pad, figure about $ 3 per square foot (installed price). (cheap carpet $ 2-2.50, high end cpt $ 4)

Laminate comes in many different prices, based on quality. Expect to spend $ 4.50-5.50 for decent laminate, as low as $ 3 for the cheap stuff.

Buy the best you can afford, you really get what you pay for ESPECIALLY in Laminate. PLEASE, for your own sake, make sure you put in tile landings at the doorways to preserve the life of your laminate floors.

Laminate on the stairs is a BAD idea, go with carpet there.
