This week, poor Ash got called out to do some carpets and a mattress. All good, until the owner informed him that the mattress was covered with every imaginable bodily fluid from a sick person having been on it for an extended period of time They then expected Ash to perform miracles on it; and […]
Carl got called out to do an outdoor setting this week with water marks. “Piece of cake”, or so we thought as outdoor fabrics are designed to get wet. So Carl gets there, sure enough brown marks all over the fabric – and they simply won’t rinse off! Just plain acrylic, so this should not […]
We’ve had a number of very expensive lounge suites to do this week. Most notable one was a brand new one, not even delivered to the customer yet. 2 spots of unknown origin were found on a corner piece – the boss, against the advice of his workers, tried to take matters into his own […]
2 customers this week that ended up in grief by doing what they thought was right! First, a wine stain on a linen/viscose.

Kinda funny one this week I was asked to inspect a carpet, all the way down in Albany. Rental property, recently relet and the owner inspected between tenancies.! According to them, it looked terrible “it’s faulty” they cried, “Only 6 months old and it’s shocking near the window, the sun has affected it!!” So, off […]
If anyone has ever listened to any of my rants, one would be to do with Baking Soda It’s all over the internet, how great it is at solving every cleaning dilemma under the sun. However, put it on wool, and it’s a completely different story! This week, had a guy who’d dropped chilli paste […]
