Andrew,the average soiled 12 cushion suite ( Dralon) takes me
Anything up to one and a half days starting or arriving at the customers
House at no later than 9am.Leaving the customers house at 5.30pm.
On 2 occasions I `ve cleaned an elderly gentlemans 12 cushion Dralon
Suite,both were pipe smokers,one suite was 8 years old,the other was
12 years old.Started Monday morning,finished at Wednesday noon.
Used 200 terry cloths on em`both.Takes ages to launder, the nicotine etc.
The only time I could clean 2 suites in a day would be if they were both
4 cushion cottage suites lightly soiled.
It`s getting the customer to part with £450 plus,even for a superb finish
Without getting the grandkids on ya back.
Suite cleaning it`s horse work.

This is meant to get a rise out of us, right? 

Wynne, there used to be an old guy, Shaun may remember him, "Jack from Tickhill", this is exactly what he used to do, he used to take the castors off, oil then and put them back, take the base fabric off, clean under there and replace it.  He was stacked out with high end work all over the Yorkshire area.  He's retired now.  He was a real gentleman and even wore a butler type outfit, I jest not.

Blimey Allan, that's a real microniche.

You've given me an idea for an add on for the tick list - Castor lubrication Madam?
