well if you want to be silly go find a play ground

this is a place for honest up front people want to chew the cud after a days graft you taking the pi55 with a name like rug dr does not help your credibility

so just what where you trying to find out with your original question?

(well those who don't use twirly whirly muck spreaders - ouch!) Incidently, on that subject I know of 2 well known carpet manufaturers who are now saying that any warranty on  new carpet will be void if the person has their carpet 'cleaned' by rotary/bonnet method as they do not recommend it.

Well there's a bit of a contradiction because at least one manufacturer of the twirly whirly muck spreaders has wool safe accreditation.
And whilst on the subject of 'who to believe' I did a protector application job today on a carpet laid only hours earlier, because someone at Carpet Right told the customer they don't apply protector anymore. :o

Well, looking through others profile names there are far worse than RD? There are some who use carpertdawg? mark12? Lowprofile2? etc etc.

You tell them to stop being silly Mr Joyce  ;D

You tell me i have a silly name, I change it, now you're having a dig as I changed it!!!

And since you've only been cleaning carpets for 5 years then IMO your not qualified to answer the question - go back to sleep!!    ;D  ;D

Who is to say you havent spent 24 years giving poor service and short changing your customers just because your head is so big that you THINK your better than everyone else?

Who rattled your cage?  I've checked out your website, it would appear your a 'Jack of  All Trades' and probably only dabble in CC once on a blue moon? Am I right? Cleaning kitchen sinks is alot different from cleaning a carpet!

I would stick to your sinks, your'll get a better finish!!   ;D  ;D
