I have a billionaire client who's expectations I want to exceed. I have several challenges on this large job. There are 12 buildings I will be working in.
This is his private 780 acre island weekend retreat. It has its own runway and private Nicklaus designed golf course. In the winter there are 35 people that work there and when the private golf course is in use in the spring and summer it grows by another 30 staff. They insist that everything have a low environmental impact. There is a fleet of approximately 25 electric vehicles that staff and guests run around in.
My truck will be brought to the island by their barge and left for the duration of the work and I will be driven back and forth by their regular crew boats that continually run through out the day.
The tasks
4 kitchen counters stone stain remove clean seal
2 bathroom counters stone clean and seal
23 area rugs half of which are sisal style some backed and some not
Several bedrooms of wall to wall wool
Also lots of "flat weave" stuff
7 guest cabins with 350 sq ft of wool wall to wall
3 very large sisal rugs that have to be done on site consisting of the following
1 wall to wall 1300 square feet
1 entertainment area sisal no backing 34x14 = 474 square feet placed on planked floor
2nd entertainment area latex backed sisal 25x17 = 425 square feet placed on planked floor
I have three large areas one of which is a wall to wall carpet in an exercise are that is almost 1300 square feet.
These large sisal like rugs are definitely natural and it really concerns me as to how much work they will be to do and how to do them in place.
What is it and how do I clean it and I can't remove it.
I was going to clean them in place and float them if they were not rubber backed. I cannot float the gym room rugs. because of all the equipment.
