Attacking me personally is not going to make you any better at what you do?  Apparently the only thing bigger than your ego is your mouth. Regardless of what system you use I believe it is the operator can make all the difference in the world, maybe except in your case  and what does the IICRC have to do with this.  As usual when somebody runs out of excuses blame the IICRC.  I do not know what the GTA did before you came along.  I guess it must have been quite some city of filth. By the way you sure waste alot of space with your replies.  Guitar

FIRST OF ALL AS QUOTED ABOVE

MY VERY OWN WORDS

"NOW IM NOT SAYING STEAM CLEANING ISN'T EFFECTIVE ITS JUST THIS PARTICULAR "STEAM CLEANER"  DIDN'T DO SUCH A GREAT JOB!!"

THE COMPANY THAT HIRED US TOLD US THEY HAD HIRED MANY IICRC STEAM CLEANERS BEFORE (MAYBE MR.STEAMER IS RIGHT)AND CERTAINS STAINS NEVER CAME OUT AND THERE WAS ALWAYS WICK BACK AND RAPID RESOILING!! UNTIL NOW!! SO DON'T YOU SPEAK ON THINGS YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT!

NOW ALLOW ME TO CLARIFY SOME THINGS

AND I HAVE POSTED THIS BEFORE...

WE USED TO STEAM ALL THE TIME, AS WE ARE IICRC CERTIFIED ASWELL

WE ALSO TRIED BONETT

NOW WE ALSO PAD

AS I HAVE SAID BEFORE ASWELL ALL METHODS ARE GOOD FOR CERTAIN PEOPLE AND CERTAIN SITUATIONS

WE ARE HAPPY WITH PADDING AND IT WASN'T EVEN US WHO POSTED THE PICS SO OBVIOUSLY OTHERS ARE IMPRESSED TOO

YOU DECIDED TO KNOCK OP BY STATING THE BASE BOARDS HADN'T BEEN DONE, WHEN THEY HAD AND ALSO STATING THAT WITH THE OP ONE MUST STAY A FEW INCHED FROM THE WALL!!

WELL MR IICRC MASTER GURU, WHAT EXACTLY DO YOU KNOW ABOUT OP CONSIDERING YOUR COMMENTS ARE WAY OFF BASE REGARDING THE OP METHOD.

ANYONE WHO HAS USED THE OP METHOD KNOWS JUST HOW EASILY IT GLIDES RIGHT UP AGAINST THE WALL ALLOWING THE EXCESS PAD TO CLEAN THE BASE BOARDS BEAUTIFULLY!

SO I HAVE NOT KNOCKED STEAM CLEANING BUT CONTINUALLY KNOCK OP

SO WHO SHOULD HAVE SOME "COMMON COURTESY" NOW!

 

 

THE DIVA

 

PS.YOU SAID ONE DAY SOMEONE MAY HAVE TO CLEAN UP AFTER ME ...

HIGHLY UNLIKELY CONSIDER BEFORE I CALL A JOB COMPLETE I MAKE SURE IT IS DRY, VACUUMED AND INSPECTED!

 AND SINCE THE CARPET IS "DRY" THE CUSTOMER NEVER HAS TO WORRY ABOUT WHAT MAY SHOW UP HOURS LATER      EI.WICK BACK ETC. ETC.  

SO NOBODY'S COMIN IN BEHIND ME!

ARE YOUR CARPETS DRY BEFORE YOU LEAVE?

IF NOT MAYBE YOU SHOULD TAKE ONE OF OUR CARDS JUST IN CASE WE NEED TO COME IN AFTER YOU!

BY THE I WOULD NOT HAVE COME AT YOU IN THIS MANNER HAD YOU NOT RIPPED INTO ME ABOUT OP AND MY INTEGRITY REGARDING PICTURES I DIDN'T EVEN POST!

I forgot to Mention that the Steamer on this Board is Mr. Steamer the Grest One and I am sure he along with everyone would prefer you find another slang term for cleaners who don't just spread and bury the surface soil. Someday someone may have to come in and cleanup after you.  Every system has it's limitations along with expectations.  No one is knocking OP and people who use another sysem expect the same common courtesy.Guitar

Diva:  There is only one Steamer on this board.  How do you know if it was steam cleaned.  Do you know what steam cleaning is.   Please do not make statements you cannot backup.  Do try to bunch everyone who cleans with HWE as steam cleaners!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Guitar

Actually we did the corners

The carpet is just brushed in the other direction (appearing dark) from vacuuming.

(Light one way dark the other, Im sure you can understand that, Wands do the same thing!)

 The machine is great for corners our pads are extra big so we don't have to go right up against the wall.

And if we choose to go up against the wall, no damage would be done, its very wall and user friendly!

Another thing

We were hired 1 week after a steamer had been in. Notice the first pick, thats what he left behind!

Now Im not saying steaming isn't effective it's just this particular steamer didn't do such a great job!!

I guess by the photo that you don't bother cleaning to the baseboards.  Is that standard to stay out  couple of inches from the wall. Or do you run the risk of damageing the baseboard trying to clean out to the edge?  By the way if you just want to spread a few things on the surface of the carpet for a demo than you did a good job.   My question is how good would it do if that was an actual spill that had been there for awhile and not something to impress the hell out of everyone who knows different.Guitar

Email me your address and I will send you some samples of chemicals.

Tell me about the brush on your rotary, are the bristles all even and flush?

If so you could use pads as opposed to bonnets and YES your results would be much better.

Give me a call if you like at 859-873-0273 and I would be pleased to help you with making what you have serve you better.

 

Thanks

 

Oh, and if done correctly HWE is NOT needed, EVER! I have a portable and a TM that just SIT,. haven't used them in years.. simply no need.
