Cleaned a reception of a large sweet maker a couple of months ago, using one step, agitated with rotowash, then bonneted. Also extracted a bad bit with one step at foot of stairs, for future reference. Customer impressed, and booked more work. Had a call today to do the reception again. MD had gone on holiday, and reception filthy again. I`m not complaining and I think it my be sugar dragged in from production floor when employees use it as a short cut. Does anyone use protector on floor tiles, or think of any better way to clean?

Gary,

With a customer producing substances involving sweet making you should be talking them into a maintenance Plan. By now they will have recognised that the carpets re soiled in a short space of time and will need to be "looked after" more regularly. Most commercial clients don't realise this, never mind domestic customers. Arrange to meet the head of Facilities and discuss a set up where you will clean the Reception perhaps once every 1-2 months and explain why and the benefits (Image for one!)
