ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for removing worn carpeting which may have been adhesively bonded to the floor of a building. The method involves the steps of affixing a power winch mechanism to the floor of the building proximate one side edge of the carpet to be removed and affixing pulleys, in pairs, on opposite side edges of the room. A rope from the winch is routed through said pulleys and the free end thereof is connected to an elongated clamp mechanism secured to one edge of the carpet to be removed. By energizing the power winch, the old carpeting is peeled back to the middle of the room, at which time, the rope is routed through a different pulley to a further carpet clamp whereby the pulling force acts in an opposite direction to complete the peeling of the remaining half of the carpeting to the middle of the room.
