It sounds like your son is older then me (I'm 19) and if that's the case chances are he probably won't ever be interested in cleaning carpets. My family is a bunch of motor heads and my uncle and Grandfather wanted me to be mechanics. I just didn't have the interest in it from a young age and still don't. There is just something to it I don't enjoy and that may be how your son looks at carpet cleaning. No sense in forcing someone to do something they don't want to do. But if he's younger then me, he may realize he is foolish to not learn carpet cleaning and decide to change his mind.

All I can say is I wish my dad had a carpet cleaning business to teach me the ropes. Instead my dad was watching me clean our carpets and took interest in it and literally ripped the wand out of my hands to try it LOL He was actually doing pretty good and then he told me he used to clean some carpets/tile while he was in the Marine Corp. His job isn't doing too well right now and he will likely be laid off soon and I think he would have no problem cleaning carpets with me. He really enjoys manual labor and cleaning so it's a good combination for him.

Welcome to the forum, cleanforless. Didn't mean to hijack your thread LOL

You have had your carpet cleaned by them a few times now? 
That's great!  How many times is a few? 
Since they started in business last year I was wondering is it 6 times? 
That carpet in the bedroom that you were going to throw out, was it perfectly cleaned the first time you used them or this last time? 
You should have them put you on a monthly contract just to be sure you never have a dirty carpet again.
Also you really should check them out with New Jersey's Secretary of State for LLC corporate fillings and see if you can find them as a legal entity because my research dug up nothing.

I have used Steam It a few times now, and I am once again incredibly happy with there service. I was about to tear out the carpet in my bedroom, because I had stains throughout. I thought maybe I should try to have it cleaned first. Glad I did they made it look new again. I never thought that they would be able to do what they did. Thanks for all your hard work.

My son cleaned carpets with me for years.  As a matter of fact the best tech I ever had. But now he has moved on.  I do take full advantage when he comes home as he will still pickup the wand and help me.  Weather he comes back or not time will tell.]]> Thu, 21 Aug 2008 20:01:01 +0000 https://www.kleenkuip.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5262&PID=146649&title=new#146649 <![CDATA[New : In the GTA you would have to find...]]> https://www.kleenkuip.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5262&PID=146648&title=new#146648 Author: doug
