Did I get everybody's attention, I was approached approx. 1 hour ago by telephone from a buddy of mine who ownes a strip club here in Montreal regarding a clean up............I REFUSED........here's why and you'll probably hear this crap on the news............a patron of the club was booted out for bothering all the girls and in general just being an ass-hole..........he returned 30 minutes later except this time he brought a friend........."A SAWED OFF SHOTGUN" 5 people were killed including the bouncer, 1 dancer, and the manager. I did some checking on the net for Crime Scene murder cleaning companies and there are not too many, I did not find one in Montreal although I am sure they exist, the ones on the net are charging close to $2000.00 American. Anyone Interested in a new money generating business. Nightrider |

There is a guy in my area who does this. I first saw him on the TV show Insomniac with Dave Attell. I then saw his truck a week later. Glad there is someone trained to do this so I, and others not trained, don't do it. I have no intrest in this at any price.
WOW! A whole post w/o kicking Nipples Harris...wtf is wrong with me???

Well. I think dying is the operative word on this one I suppose, I would do it if there would be less of a chance for catching something.......but I'm not sure about scraping someones teeth out of the ceiling, or scooping their brain up from off the floor and putting it in a plastic bag like a lunch.

Nightrider: I had a shotgun blast one time and all the guy's hair and scalp were in the ceiling it looked like long leggged spiders. had to use proxide to find the rest of his scalp parts becaus it would foam when ever I got lucky and found one. ------------- Just My opinion |

Tell me were you trying to give him a hair treatment with the peroxide.........too bad you live in a small town Doug.......you should move to New York.....there's probably alot of scalp to scrape off ceilings there................just for the hell of it Doug...........Do you play with Bows & Arrows and perhaps a hatchet from time to time Nightrider |

Nightrider: I have found that the only time I have a problem with the cleanup is being from a small town sometimes you personally know the person whose parts are all over the bedroom wall. It is not bad if the fall back on the bes less mess but when the fall on the floor of an older home it is problems. ------------- Just My opinion |

you're right doug... cheap cheap and all you get is complains...

M. Steamer: We get that here they only need us every three or four years than the bitching starts. So now we don't bother. I know most of these people personally so I feel free to ask a lawyer if he waits till his car rusts to have it washed. Than blame the guy at the car wash because you didn't see the rust till after the car was washed. You can't put life back into something that was neglected to save a dollar. ------------- Just My opinion |

Well said doug, In Montreal there are hardly anyone using portables, most have truckmounts, even if they're all shot to crap at least when you clean a carpet from another cleaner you not sucking up years of shampoo that stops your blower every 10 minutes. Nightrider |

Mr. Steamer: In the last 10 years or so I have had probably 15 to 20 cleaning and restoration companies come and go. They all affect things one way or another for a time till they fade out. ------------- Just My opinion |

why do you have so many restoration companies out there??? is there a lot of flooding or damage???? ------------- www.mr-steamer.com |

Mr. Steamer; I have no idea. Remember this county has a population of approx. 60,000 Is 60 miles from North border to South border and 30 miles to the East border and I live on the WEst border and that is the lake. There is probable at least 15 city companies fighting for anything they can get here. I guess this is considered a remote are and they can charge what they want. We have no problem being less just a problem with adjusters as they all come from the city. We were busier when there were local independent adjuster here. But the swear word of the 90's KICKBACKS has been changed to a more political correct term. I believe it is called promotional Gratuties in this age of determining who gets the call that plays a major in decision making. ------------- Just My opinion |

Can everyone make a living out of that??? you guys charge way more than the GTA anyway so I guess it's possible... Adwa mention that my specials where too cheap but I can't get more in the GTA.. maybe I should come to GodURich??? ------------- www.mr-steamer.com |

Mr. Steamer: That is the main reason so many fail in a small area. somedays I can drive 50 to 60 miles and clean 2 places. I don't think I could that with your prices. As far as restoration I charge what the programs reccommend I just don't get all the milage the city companies get. The same hols for cc companies from the cith they try to book 7 or 8 jobs in one day for here that is when the fun starts for them. ------------- Just My opinion |

Copanies like Sears, The Bay, Canadian steam have lowered the bar... and made carpet cleaning CHEAP...

These is one in London, Stratford and I think Owen Sound. Their used to be one here by it left a few years ago. Now they are like terrorist come in quietly do their damage and escape.
