Removing old carpet

Recommended Posts

The way the RV was built means NOWAY. Typically the floor is built first, then vinyl flooring, then carpet in the needed places. Then the walls are added right on top of the floor covering, so the carpet goes to the outside.

Cut the old as close as you can, lay down the new stuff and if needed use 3/4" quarter round to neatly edge things.

Hi, i am restoring my 84 dolphin and i am taking out old carper. is there a way to get the carpet from underneath the lower sofa wall and where the water tank storage panel is? thanks

I removed the couch/bed framing, to get that nasty carpet out with more ease.  I tried cutting to the edge and it was a BISCUIT.  I've not pulled the walls for the fridge and sink, yet.  But I don't like the process of cutting the edge.  These pics are the closest shots, but I think you'll get the idea.  If you want more pics, I'll snap more tonight.
