today I encapped an end of tenancy. There was a road closure and it would have meant  a 200ft run to do one bedroom. Although there was a noticeable difference in appearance it was no where near the results that can be achieved with a good prespray and hot water extraction. In another house today there was no electric so I had to agitate the prespray with a rake. It is nowhere near as effective as using a machine to agitate. A lot of these things are fine if you do not have anything better to compare with.

Hi Peter

I agree you cannot beat hot water extraction after pre spray.  However on some of the void properties (were carpets are in good condition) but tenant just wants their deposit back, encap  works great for me.  Don't get me wrong if the carpet is really bad, then extraction only. But most voids I do, carpets are in great condition, just down that their carpets need cleaning after they leave.  

Some of domestic properties were custy lives encap is fine if their carpets are in good condition too. I'm not saying encap is better, but when and were it can be used, its great stuff.
