What happens here

Begin the installation process by removing the old carpeting and any associated padding or tack strips. After the carpet is removed, thoroughly sweep and vacuum the subfloor to eliminate all dust, debris, and any remnants of the old flooring adhesive. The subfloor needs to be as clean and smooth as possible to ensure a proper and lasting installation of the new flooring. The narrator emphasizes the critical nature of this prep work for the long-term success of the project.

Goal: Prepare a clean and smooth subfloor for new flooring installation.
