When you say clean can you elaborate a bit more? (Mop and bucket / scrubber drier / spray clean etc)

Thanks.  A lot more than carpets and I mean a lot more!


It a bit difficult for me to advise a price all depends on the job a lot of variables come into play, the list is endless!  A tip, take in the linear area also, can be very time consuming.
