I think we have a few MBrs in this area so lets see who needs some work.

Arlington Texas.

@ 625 sq ft of nylon builders grade crap. Reeks of big doggy odor. No urine. Never been professionally cleaned. Most furniture will be moved out for cleaning day, go around or at least vacuum under whats left. Heavy deodorizing needed

12 ft Olefin sectional sofa. never been cleaned. Used as a bed by my sweaty brother and his two huge dogs for way too long. Stinky and dirty.

4 or 5 junk area rugs, 4 x 8, 6 ft round 5 x 8 and a runner or two. All can be cleaned in the drive way or garage.

100 ft or so of 12 x 12 ceramic tile in kitchen and bath. Grout is pretty bad. Seal it too.



How much.


If you snoop around a bit you'll get some killer blackmail material on me so consider that when pricing.

I don't think I'd even want that job. Sounds like a complete pain in the ass.

so since your dad lives in texas, what I am trying to figure out is how you ended up such a tree hugger, non meat eater etc. I must of lived a sheltered life growing up down there because when I moved to utah I didn't know, what a tree hugger was, or a hippie, or a wacko environmentalist, you know all those people who left California because it sucks and now wanna make utah just like where they left already. the older I get the more redneck I become

Nice thing about this job?


Entire place can be cleaned with Cobb's Powermaxand a little Dynocide.


maybe Larry wants to come do it himself for some real world exercises.

The stinky brother owns the house and keeps on eye on my cancer ridden pops (who is from Iowa).

Stinky just moved out to a new home and now Pops is there with Stinky's 20 year old son.

I went as far as bleaching the bath room but I sure as hell aint buying my brother new carpet.

largemouths. That's where it's at IMO. That's where the money is at anyway. Pro fisherman, what a life.

He is getting married tomorrow and starts a job with Homeland Security next week.

I could clean it... :shock: But I don't do a 15 step process. Call me if you want 214-709-7200. And no, I am not a apartment hack. :roll: (not that their is anything wrong with that.)

If you can vacuum the dander out, pre spray it with PMX and Dyno and rinse the heck out then it's all good. Nothing super fancy needed, Dad and the Dogs will be pissing all over it the same day.

Give me a price Jay.

I've done plenty of shit jobs. I just bitch and say I don't want to do them but I don't turn down work. Hell I hate to stretch carpet but I've been known to do it. Hell I'd rather do your dads place than put in stretch in carpet any day. I had one job I did where my freaking waste tank stunk for two weeks like dog shit.....

We'll be out all day and I sure dont want you to waste time coming down for a estimate.

I figure a guy with your skills could knock this out in 3 to 4 hours with a chimp.



This aint ICS, I /we wont pick on you if you only want $60 an hour..
