CTS
Your pretty new here and with your first posts your trying to sell something (not sure what) maybe a course on carpet repair etc People on here dont take kindley to that kinda thing, we already get a ton of calls during the day from telesales...
In the 11+ busy years i have been cleaning carpets i have only been asked once if i do repairs to carpets (fair enough i dont advertise that i do). I do have a pair of sciossors on me at all times to cut the odd dangly yarn sticking out of the carpet, but thats as far as i go with with carpet repairs.
Also, Steve is a well respected member of this forum with quite a few years of cleaning and fitting experience under his belt. He's always been willing to help people with thier carpet cleaning and fitting/re-streching/carpet problems questions over the years, so attacking him really wont get you far! I'm 100% sure he wasn't having a go at you but more so pointing out a few facts..
On a positive note
how much could you generaly charge for doing a bonded insert?? I see a few iron burns and f*g burns in carpets. The customer never asks me to sort these out as i think they just decide to live with them. But if i could turn round and say, "hey, i can fix that!" then that would be pretty cool.
Also, am i right in saying that if the carpet is worn then a bonded insert will look crap? Only best done on a new carpet?
