I can not believe how many people we have on this forum that are from down east. I was born and raised in Toronto but all my family are from Newfoundland. I am proud to be raised with that down east mentality. Good People |

"I am glad you have reached fininical independence. What the hell are you doing cleaning carpets? Just to see how the other half lives?" Carpet cleaning is a small part of what I do. I own a Janitorial service that does office cleaning, window cleaning, floor stripping and waxing, etc... We've been in business since '93 and right now I have 6 employees working with me full time. I have always shy'd away from carpet cleaning jobs because I just didn't know that much about the work. Now I am trying to get more into carpet cleaning. I find that the more I do it, the more I enjoy it. So I would definately like to be able to clean people's area rugs, but I'm not going to do it until I at least have a decent place to lay out the carpet and work on it. Right now my basement is full of stuff and my office is way too small. I should add that when I said I don't need the money that much I was not trying to imply that I am rich or anything. I just meant that I don't need the money from that job enough to be cleaning her carpet on my front lawn. Thanks again to all who offered good advice. Edited by Rotti123 |

Take the rug out, 3.00 a square foot without fringe, 3.50 with.
Inspect the carpet for damages and test for dye lock. Place on slanted driveway upside down, vacuum but better yet give it an hour with an airmover blowing everything out of it. Place blower under edge and secure so rug flaps in the breeze.
Turn over, vacuum again, then SOAK it with a hose, prespray with neutral cleaners, scrub with floor macine or op, soak more. Get a hand held vinyl roller, velcro a hose to it, and roll the carpet several ways and times to remove not only chems, but also all soil. Turn off hose, continue to roll out the excess moisture, hang it up and place airblower on it till dry, brush it by hand to stand up all the fibers while it is drying. When dry, prespray and lightly brush fringe, and extract, let dry and deliver to a customer that will sing your praises.
She will tell her friends, "this guy costs alot but you ought to see what he did for my rug".
COllect check and let her call her freinds to have them call you.
Just another day in paradise! |
