One of the common questions that some people ask when doing a DIY or do it yourself floor renovations is how will they remove those broken staples. First of all, wood expands and changes its natural shape and size when exposed to moisture, that is why we need to put something like staples or nails so that the wood will be attached to the subfloor and will perform its function well. And staples have two prongs that make them known to hold stronger.

When removing it, you need to have specific construction tools like pliers (end nipper pliers) or the hook blade of a utility knife. The End Nipper Pliers is a good tool to use when removing staples because it is a type of pliers that has a rounded side, perfect for pulling the staples from the wood for it will not damage it.

It is important to know the kind of tool to use before renovating the floor to avoid wasting time and effort. And it would be advisable to find a reliable floor contractor to achieve your expectations.
