Some of us can protect low profile office carpet for as little as 10p/m but, for a large commercial job, would you still charge the customer a rate per m (if so choose from the above), build it into a day rate plus materials or simply have a seperate figure in mind for the protection job?
I know some would say it simply comes down to the profit we each desire but I am just interested to see what others would do with this scenario to see what would seem reasonable. Reason being, I have already protected 300m2 of office carpet and the customer is yet to be told the price :)

thought protector didn't work on polly props?
its hard enough trying to get them to pay good money for the clean, good luck with the add ons guys. ;D

They specificially asked for it, first commercial protection job ive done I think. Some of the carpet was nylon and some was polyprop. I told them to be aware of mixed results but they said go ahead anyway. I did test the polyprop afterwards and although it didn't bead on the surface, its did absorb out better.

Why not use rotobrite or catalyst as these have built in stainshields?

the carpets needed extracting and they were willing to pay

Maybe I should have just asked what would you have charged for 300m2 office carpet around desks for HWE & protection?
