Alright dudes, I got a call from the private school that my son goes to. They wanted a price to clean the entire middle school. Turned out to be 16,000sqft, 21 areas including hallways. The classrooms needs desks/furniture moved all over and things needs prevac. Moderate stains all over. I figured a steam clean and Cimex encapped on some areas. My price was $1800 and some change. I got a call this morning and was told that they are going with the guy that is half the price. He said the cleaning may not be better but he had to go with the lower guy. I did not try to fight it because I have relationships with people there that are important to me. I explained a little and the let it go, no hard feelings.
Anyway, I'm not cleaning that place for $900. Screw that, man it's a lot of work. I don't do much carpet cleaning but it seems like it may be more than a day for my and a helper, right?
What would you have bid?
