Well, got paid for it for the first time, i had a dabble with carpets a year ago but never pursued it.
Just my thoughts on it for anyone that may be interested in getting into carpet cleaning, as there no carpet section on the site.
I recently bought second hand extracta exel machine and dived straight in with a job
1.Its very hard work, a lot harder than stick waggling, i was dripping buckets of sweat.
2.It took me about 1 hour to do a small room and small hallway
3.30 mins of that was setting up and packing away.
4.Moving furniture is hard work.
5.Machine weighs a tonne, no way its going up stairs.
6.Its a ball ache unloading and loading van 4 times.
Luckily there was no stains as i have neither the knowledge or chemicals to deal with them, the machine worked great just used a basic carpet shampoo and it all came out well.
I will be booking some training asap as its a bit nerve racking winging it.
Overall enjoyed it, hard work but looked great when finished which was good and could have done it a fair bit quicker if i hadnt have had a problem with the hose leaking.
Got another booked in for next friday, lets hope it goes smoothly lol
