Here you go Mike
« on: October 04, 2008, 11:09:07 PM »
I finally got to clean that apartment that I posted a picture of the bedroom carpet. Here are some more before and after pictures. I pre sprayed with Bridgepoints White Lightning, spiked with Citrusolv, Scrubbed with my 175 the extracted with my Truck Mount. I am going back tomorrow when the tenant moves in to do the walk thru inspection with them.

Nice job, hopefully you were paid well, kind of makes you wonder what is in the pad  :-\ I'm sure the customer will be very impressed.

The sad thing is Jeff, the owner of the property will never see it, and the new tenant will say its not clean. The owner just wanted it to be a little lighter in color so it didnt look as dirty.... :o

Good job Tim.
That has got to be one of the dirtiest carpet I have ever seen.

I did that with one of my propery owners, but i forgot to bring my digital w/ me so instead used the camera phone, still got 1 referral out of him. So yea good idea indeed.

Jeff, the property is managed by a local property manegment company were my wife is the office manager. So it makes it easy to get the referall. The pictures were taken with my phone. I always forget to take my camera also but I made sure my phone takes good pictures for that reason.

I think I would have had to burn my clothes, toss my vac in the trash and throw out and all towels and pads I would have used on that job.   :P

Nice job!
I used to get some like that from a slum land lord. I had to fire them last week, and I have to say it was the best business decision I ever made   ;D

When you first start cleaning its kind of fun to do one of those once in a while just to see what you can do.

At this point in my career I would tell them to get new carpet.
