if any one wants some good marketting advice, i know how to get on the quote list for cleaning ships and liners?
personally i wouldn't do them cos you have to charge peanuts to compete but if you want the pictures on your website, it looks impressive.
derek

He makes a lot of peanuts though Derek ;D

yeah but you need a lot of peanuts to buy all the equipment mike, swings and roundabouts.
anyway, wasn't having a dig, i was merely trying to help anyone who wants to go down that road.
thats if my information is right, which it might not be.

It ain't all about price Derek the kind of ships Simon cleans need someone they can rely on and trust, they are unlikely to risk an unknown to save a few shekels.

I'm getting more calls about hard floor, tile cleaning, rather than carpets mainly kitchen, conservatory floors etc. Its real easy to do and most of you already have the equipment to do it, if i can help anybody with advice i will be happy too. Andrew

Like Jim I'm quite busy for the time of year, last year though I was even busier but last year I had a really big tax bill to sort out but this year I have had a good investment come in to pay it so I've taken my foot off the gas a little. Hope to start running (jogging) again now I'm back up to my fighting weight so I'm gonna take it easy only a new bathroom suite to pay for as she had me round all of the bathroom shops yesterday afternoon.

Another running man like myself, also taking exercise motivates you, surprising what you can do after a ten mile run  ;D

Think with your knowledge in your hard floor cleaning it will be easier you to clean ???

Just a question andrew can you damage or crack a tile with the heat from the water ???

Cheers

I normally only use a rotary scrubber and a wet vac, leaving the cleaner to dwell on the tiles and grout is normally enough. I don't think you would crack a tile with heat as they have been fired to extreme temperatures during there manufacturing process.
