Mr. Steamer !!!!! When you refer to WE You must be refering to a mouse in your pocket. Maybe that is the residule affect from having been associated with SEARS for so long. But I can tell you one thing that is not how I do business? ------------- Just My opinion |

I've seen worse.... than that ...a company which be left nameless, just because I don't want to get beat up..... they charged $500 dollars just to show up...and 500 every hour after that.. but most bills only came up to 1500-2000 a flood. That same guy runs Home Depot in the GTA ------------- www.mr-steamer.com |

...and you wonder why people think that the carpet cleaning business is
a bunch of low-life, seedy, shisters, who use to work in the
second-rate, greasy, drug infested carnival that comes to your town in
the summer. ------------- If we can't get it out, it ain't coming out!  http://www.kelownacleanpro.com - Kelowna Cleanpro

What kills me is when you do charge the Blue Book pricing you are still made out to be like that guy. We charged $150. an hour two man crew with truckmount to pump sewer water on Aug 19. Guys worked 41 hours straight. People wanted a "deal", we didn't even want to work, we wanted to go to bed. But this guy takes the cake |

That guy makes us look very reasonable

41 Hours? $6150.00? What the hell did you do pump out the sewage plant?? I think you need a bigger tm either that or a Septic Truck? ------------- Just My opinion |

No Doug, I was saying that even after 41 hours on the road doing calls we still charged $150. an hour for a 2 man crew with truckmount. We had people who wanted to make a deal and we said no. |

No f'n deals in an emergency situation. Puts a lot of stress on equipment and staff

People with portable mentalities always get into trouble when it comes to operating a tm? Don't blame the Blue Book? ------------- Just My opinion |

I have my own set rates that apply. We never overcharge unless the customer is pi$$y

With a tm if you want to get away from the BS charge by unit measurement. Why would anyone in their right mind bill by the hour? You are only punishing yourself? ------------- Just My opinion |

I believe Blue Book is over $250 an hour. We are very reasonably priced. |

I have never priced out my tm by the hour? Unless it is for standby? ------------- Just My opinion |

All WD extraction we charge by the hour. 150.00 to 200.00, depending on how many techs

I'm going to put nightrider into the shame, shame on you video. The same one as the Sears tech is in and teach him not to water down Scotchgard. I will bet he does not water down his Scotch after a hard day of selling. Kleen Kuip is selling Stainshield at a 53% discount. If anyone should be watering it down it should be them. They must be working on a very low margin. |

Maybe they are watering it down, I know Ted waters down his Scotch ( at least the one he offered me was watered down ) Instead of offering a product @53% discount why not make the product a little more concentrate and have a higher dilution ratio for the end user........I'll tell you why everyone has used toilet paper, right, ever notice how you spin the roll to get a big clump just not to get any crap on your fingers............... Who actually uses the cap to measure the shampoo they put on their hair, the little sample they send you in the mail does the trick .........why must we put 10 times as much as needed Same thing for toothpaste, laundry soap, etc etc etc My point is...........we will not actually benefit from the 53 % discount in the diluted form being offered...........we'll just go through it faster and buy more at another so called 53% discount Now..........who should be in the Shame on you video, little old Nightrider..............or Big Business Nightrider |
