I'm having a very busy week!How long would you expect to spend cleaning ~160 of these:



10hrs - I'm wasted!

[Ferenc G.]

Well done mate  Must have been a hard day

[Richard Cole]

I'd have a sit down after doing that lot, looks like you have plenty of chairs to chose from

[Mike Halliday]

At a tenner each you've made a killing

They are an awkward design to clean, were they dirty?

[Paul Moss]

A tenner , you havin a giraffe, £3 each.

Wedding venue - fairly old and dirty - mostly cleaned up ok, apart from the odd raspberry juice splattered ones.  That was yesterdays job...I did the carpets today - I'll be finishing off tomorrow.  £3 each sounds about right.

Apparently the previous carpet cleaner did the lot in 2hrs - that's one every 40secs   ... when I grow up I'd like to be as good as that!

[Paul Moss]

David, you will.

We've just cleaned over 2,000 chairs like that on a ship in Germany, Pre-spray, scrub, extract with portable, around two minutes each. It's all about having an efficient system, which is down to experience. Two machines each cleaning at least 30 an hour.

If you were working by yourself then that's pretty good going.  We've just done a biggish job this morning which had to be done and finished for opening time 10:45 so had two machines going flat out on it.

Thanks... 160 chairs in 10 hrs = 16 per hour = approx one every 4 minutes.  

I loaded them up in blocks of 10:
I vac'ed, pre-sprayed, hand brush agitated, extracted, then towel wiped them down (every inch, inc wooden legs/ frame).  And, I spot cleaned a few tricky ones afterwards.

I thought that was ok too... in fact, it's about the same speed as you Simon

I would have gone for a bit more money as well as taking a helper but it's not me that's wanting the job it's you! well done I think they got an excellent job, you'll not need your warm milk tonight

Dave,
You did well. Speed and high quality are not things that necessarily go together, but you can streamline a cleaning process to maximise productivity while not compromising on quality.

The best advice I can give on this type of work is setting the air overs up to point at the guys doing the hwe.

[Shaun_Ashmore]

Like it Jamie but are you that unfit that you sweat that much? LOL

I'd turbo them just to get them dry as to check them over.

There's a good chance that's why he is "the previous carpet cleaner"  now replaced by you.

Its jobs like this my kestrel agitating tool comes into its own!
