So in reality does the client in a large commercial office vacuum the carpet the after it has been encapped, or is that just wishful thinking?
I also find it strange that you can walk away having (and in effect) not completed the job, with leaving the client to finish off the job for you.
Well neil, I was expecting a reply along the lines of your reply, exactly the same has happened on past posts discussing encap, 2 ways of looking at it really , 1. ensure you go back 24 hrs later and vac adding expense to the final bill, as waiting an hour as suggested is not the answer. 2. ensure you agree the vacuuming is done by the client keeping the cost down, I know what i prefer to do, suggesting the job is not completed is twaddle. but each to his own.
Simon, I charge around £1 per sq mtre using cimex, this is pre vac and application, slight adjustment made for certain factors,ie.size furniture etc.
