No worries, mate! 🦘 When it comes to removing old carpet and preparing the subfloor in Sydney, here’s what you can generally expect: 1. **Carpet Removal**: The cost for removing old carpet typically ranges from **$5 to $15 per square metre**. This can vary depending on how many layers of carpet there are and the difficulty of removal. 2. **Subfloor Preparation**: Preparing the subfloor, which includes cleaning, repairing, or levelling, can add another **$5 to $10 per square metre** to your costs. So, for an average room size of around 25 square metres, the total cost for removal and subfloor preparation might be approximately **$250 to $625 AUD**. For the best service and pricing, I highly recommend reaching out to the **the Taren Point carpet team (BCC)**. They're the pros when it comes to carpet solutions in Sydney!
