I don't saturate an area 4X6 . I first explain to the customer that as long
as you still have the pet we can not guarantee any results. I then explain that , " the extreme in a urine contamination case is that the carpet is discarded, the floor is treated & sealed and a new or remnant carpet installed. ( No I don't want to do That is always the response) "So the best that we can do for you mam when contamination occurs is to locate , as best we can where the pet has urinated by using a special light that flouresses the urine spots. Once we locate where the urine has gone in to the carpet , we can saturate that area with a product that helps breaks down the bacteria and stain.(PRO"S CHOICE OSR) After it dwells for a while we extract it out and rinse it . "As you may know Mam or sir , the spot on top of the carpet can be the size of a quarter and the spot below the carpet can be the size of a basketball so there is no way of guaranteeing that we are going to get it all ..But it should be a good improvement. The cost is $75.00 per hour for the time spent on the contamination. Usually we can do most rooms in 1/ 2 to 1 hour. I'll know more once we start the process. Do you wish us to proceeds? Doug and Mr. Steamer what is your alternative for Filtration lines and or urine contamination. There is nothing 100% in these situations. Filter out is the best I have found to date . If you are willing to share your solution to the above situation , please do , it will be appreciated Thanks |

As far as Pet urine......OSR from Pro's Choice has worked flawless for us.
Up to this past year I was unable to find anything that was all that great. OSR and the water Claw work excellent. The water claw is only a tool, but it gives you the opportunity to saturate a given area allow the chemical to dwell and do it's thing and be able to draw moisture through deeper layers , many times all the way down to the subsurface. concrete or wood or whatever. |

Filter Out from Prochem ...... First explain how filtration lines occur to the
customer and charge extra for your time. Many will opt to not spend the extra. " To explain in advance is to educate, to explain after is to make excuses" Filter Out also works on Graphite filings under the Rocking/recliners |

hey guys I install carpet professionaly. The correct way to charge for a restrech is by the number of yards you are restreching. if the room is 12x12 then charge them for 16 yards at whatever rate you want I get 4.50 a yard. Or somtimes if its a good customer I'll do it for say 30-50 bucks. Damm I cant wait to start my cleaning business!

Ted: I have had absolutly no results using olefin prespray on filtration lines. As a matter of fact I personally think olefin prespray is a waste of money for any cleaning of carpets. Soap and water probably works better. But that is just my experience.

We sell a product from Esteam especially for filtration lines. It's called Olefin Prespray. We also sell a product called Yukon Gold. Basically filtration marks are caused by trapped oil hydrocarbons. The product needed is usually high is solvency. But mechanical action is usually needed. It's a lot of work and should be an extra charge. The claw is good for litfing anything that has penetrated deep. Although Ink and Kook Aid usually require dye and mild bleaches. P.S. |

Mr. Steamer: I think $110. is not a resonable rate per room. But if he gets it more power to him. Unless things have change from when I used to do inspections in the GTA the repair and reinstallation man is the one who should be busy, because I never inspected too much work installers had done. Just work by some carpet layers??????????????

A good thing for filtration is a knife. Restretch the carpet usually about an inch is enough. Scrubbing along the walls is a pain and usuallu the carpet is kind of fragile there. I have tried many cleaners some work some are a complete waste of time. If you time is worth nothing work at the lines. |
