Hello Guys. In an attempt to accelerate my learning curve, I have been reading the blog history. This is my first post.
I am putting a quote together for a local coffee house chain. They have four locations with combination flooring material (e.g. vct, ceramic tile, and commercial glue down). As you can imagine, the medium tone, brown, commercial glue down has lots of coffee stains. What solutions and equipment should I use to clean this carpet? Additionally, how would you price the service? The carpeted area in these shops range from 500-800 sf.
There will be an advantage given to the company that does carpets and vtc. I have no experience with cleaning, stripping and waxing vtc, but am considering purchasing a used high speed buffer for this purpose. Does anyone do a combination service that would be willing to give some insight? How would I charge for the vtc service? At this point, the vtc would need to be stripped and re-waxed.
Currently, I have a few equipment options to choose from: Truckmount, Cimex, BrushEncap and Vario but would like to service this account with Encap. I've used the BrushEncap primarily to agitate pre-spray with my HWE cleaning. I've used the Cimex on some abused, neglected and soil impacted commercial glue down to manage the wicking. To this point, I only played around with the Vario. I'm looking to transition from HWE to Encap.
Thanks in advance.
