Hi

Yeah I know ;)

I even managed to get rid of that brown stuff in the basin, but those marks you see on the drainer are pitted marks, so I have advised them to replace, fridge is also to be replaced.

Hi Len

Hope you're well?

They didn't want the carpet cleaning, shame as my 'shake & vac' would bring it up a treat.  ;)

There was a bit of black top by the sink. I will offer my services for the carpet of course, can't let my reputation as the 'Carpet Jesus' go unchallenged  ::)

I have a feeling they will want me to go back for a sparkle clean as it is going to be redecorated, and we all know that contractors will make a right mess.

I love these jobs, would do them every day. Was shattered afterwards though.

Regards

Hi Martin

Are you busy with EOT Cleaning? The recession does not seem to of hit this market yet we are busy with house cleans nearly every day?

Hey Karl

Honestly, I am very quiet at the moment, I clean for 5 LA's in town but the work seems to have dried up, very odd.

Glad you are busy though, must be working for the wrong LA's  :)

Hi Martin
Very strange indeed. :)  How's your new venture taking off, hope it goes well for you.Not sure if there is much competition in our area, or do you know otherwise!

Hi

there are one or two operating, it's just getting the word out. the councils are covered by the 'big companies' who do it as part of their maintenance contract.

Will just keep pushing.

Of course if I can offer you or any of your guys any advice or help in that area, please ask away.

Regards
