Darren and I attended a job last week, repeat customer wanting the same job again. No Problems, 3 small lounge suites with some minor marks. But embarrassingly, we got a call back, saying that we missed a few spots on one settee! So off I went, to inspect and sort out the issue. I get […]

Prevacuuming is something we that we are required to do as per the Australian Standard AS3733 for carpet cleaning. Yet people often assume that their version of vacuuming of the carpet is enough – but this is rarely the case! Just this week, Darren had a job that he attended and as per our norm, […]

Review “Fabulous service. We had a couple of stains ranging from tea to tan on our Jasper lounge that were up to 3 months old; and the prognosis wasn’t good considering the time that had passed and the fabric of our couch. No guarantees were made; instead, Franco just produced results! And they smell fantastic […]

This week we had an unusual request to fix an issue with dye from a leather strap having transferred onto a viscose blend bedhead – nothing nefarious, just a leather handle that had rubbed against the fabric. Definitely something new, but once again, challenge accepted! The client was not hopeful, thinking it would never come […]

Reporting on carpet issues for warranty claims is another thing we do. This week I called in to inspect a complaint of colour variances on a job. Looking at the carpet. It seemed as though one side of the join was different in colour to the other side. But, when I played around with the […]

Yesterday, I attended a job that I’d had an emergency call on. Regular client, with a mischievous daughter who loves testing out her artistic skills – this time with nail polish on the staircase. Mum tried to do it herself, but just spread it! So, the call came through… She had done a great job […]

This week, I had to inspect another few carpets had already been “professionally cleaned”. One of particular concern was a carpet that, even after having been cleaned twice, one room still had a smell of cat urine AND the new tenant was reacting badly with a rash developing all over her as she is highly […]

Yesterday, we were asked by a Property Manager to deodorise 1 bedroom carpet in a house. These carpets had already been “professionally cleaned”. No problem we said, we can sort that out and in we went. But… upon inspection, the carpets were still quite soiled throughout, with a general doggy smell to go with it. […]
