We have been doing this project about 5 years now after a couple other companies didn't make the grade you could say....

They love our work, it is 4252 sq ft at full price.....everything picked up and prepped....just a slam dunk!

These recycled tire carpet squares are just terrible to clean and you usually don't make much of a difference.....

But dang! If the Zipper wasn't the magic this time on them....just smooth (using a Hybrid glide on the front, hole in the back) and the white was turning back to white again :rockon:

We still proceeded to do 3 more jobs after this one because people heard we were going to be in the area. It only took us an hour and a half to do this DNR building, but we could have kept cleaning up there in this remote location for at least another week as people kept finding out about us.

The person who found out about us for the residential part is going to get us back up there in January and February when it is slow for us and help schedule a lot of work! :rockon:



And we arrived, the new starter we had installed this past year....the wires came loose! If we didn't have some repair skills, we would have been in trouble as there is NO real repair services up there, especially on a weekend!

Damn van ate the help!

Son in law under the van...only one skinny enough to STAY under there....he had to pull me out :biggrin: :lol:

The Zipper sure makes places that seemed larger in the past wanding look small now to us....even my son in law commented on "this is going to take no time!"

What was up with the van?


The weight of the Zippers made the difference eh?

Starter wires came loose....was newer starter this past year....

I think the weight of the Zipper helped but also the heat staying more under the zipper might have helped to activate the cleaning better.....

Crazy stuff to clean....can't really do much with it
