No Steve I'm not joking
I dont know if you yourself state that you always pre vac in your own advertising, but others who have said they dont pre vac do advertise it. All I am saying which is very correct, is that if you say you are going to always pre vac you must, otherwise you are cutting corners, which may very well end up costing you some £'s because it is false advertising. The point I have made is a simple fact, and very good business advice.
I'm not really bothered and couldnt really care less if you or any one does or doesnt, but when someone is paying good money for someone to carry out a job for them, the least they can expect is for you or I to do what we have said we will do for them.
Derek I appreciate what your saying, if you tell them that you usually do always pre vac but wont do on this particular job its fine, you are doing what you have said you will. Maybe change the wording on your website to: we might pre vacuum, it all depends if you have
Hi Simon, I do always pre vac, always pre spray with whatever I understand to be suitable for the condition of the carpet and agitate currently with a duo, then I extract with either fibre and fab, super chem or crystal green.
I am doing what industry standards recommend, prochem told me to pre vac, might be going on the ncca next month, do they advise that you to pre vac
But if I dont always pre vac I wont advertise that I do.
Imo its better to pre vac with a good industrial vac before you wet it with pre spray, spray some water on a pile of dust and see what happens, Im no expert but its not rocket science.
