My guys have a sandstone floor to put final coat of sealer on.
200m2 of carpet tile to freshen up after refurbishment work. Just dust and mastic spots.
A wood floor to oil.
I am going to sit in my office and get fat(er)

What is everyone else up to today?

Day off from cleaning today.

Tony I'd recommend extracting it first rather than eating it, better H&S approach ;D

I have cleaned a through lounge diner at £60, got a £10 tip on top, took 1hr. 35 from pulling up to pulling off. Then I have cleaned a small 2 bed ground floor flat. Empty, and had to be sanitised aswell due to previous tennant having a dog. I charged £200 for this, took 2.5 hrs and that indluded 1 hour vacuuming alone. This evening I have fitted battery to other truckmount and have given it a test run before it goes out on road. All seemed fine but have got bubbles in flow meter when drop rate to below 4. Above 4 and no bubbles. Anyone got any ideas?
