I do what I can but how can you help people that can’t even help themselves. I could work all day on their carpet, but if they refuse to wipe the piss off their walls and baseboards, I can’t help them.

Well, the carpet smelled good when I was done. Can’t speak for the walls.

I've got one next week which is the worst I've ever seen or smelt :cry:

Intellectually disabled adult has started peeing around his bedroom. I've told his parents the carpet needs to be pulled, mental health want it cleaned.. I've walked from far less but feel sorry for his parents :hopeless:
They probably want it odor free which means "new". I would walk. JMO. Maybe they can't afford a proper remedy. Doesn't mean you should get beat up.

I've got endless compassion for parents who raise special needs children, especially through adulthood. One of my customers is nearly 70 and has a son with Down's Syndrome in his late 40's and no longer has his wife to help him.

Unbelievably hard beyond what I can imagine.

Still, this issue is a problem for the family and social services, not for you.

Business is business.

Damon, I've always thought of you as the pee pee xpUrT (Thanks, Radar). There is a reason people call you with their pee pee carpets. You go dude!

I normally walk if I can smell it strong within the room, I could smell this from down the hall... peeing in the wind

*Im going to see if they can claim insurance on it, policy holder can only say no

Got a call today from a property manager we do a lot of work for. It's for her residence 3 dogs and a couple cats. All rescues but one dog. Company coming this weekend.
I'll make it tolerable.

Did a job so bad the sub floor puckered up. Blegh.

Had to remove 2-1/4” off of all the sheetrock. In some instances we pulled full sheets. Cats had also urinated in the window sills and up on the walls wherever the lady had junk piled up. Even in and on top of the cabinets.
Thank God for respirators

I wonder how many of us have been not been called BACK because of pet issues ongoing after we leave. No amount of sensitive talk before hand seems to work.

WHAT YOU WANT TO TELL THEM IS THEY LIVE IN A CESSPOOL!
THEIR MULTIPLE DOGS PISS EVERY WHERE AND IT'S UNHEALTHY!

THE STUPIT BASTARDS!

SHOOT THOSE DOGS (and cats)

NEVER ALLOW ANIMALS TO LIVE IN THE HOME IDIOTS!

Jimmy, you would like living in North Korea. The president there has just ordered all people to surrender their pet dogs so they can be killed and used as meat. Hot dogs and beer anyone?

Well this job is going ahead, because only if it fails can they get funding to replace

not hopeful can fix it, but not prepared to do half hearted attempt either

got masterblend 'At Last' and 'Urine Lock' on the way, I've used neither as not normally my thang. Any pee pee gurus used these with success?
Any tips specific to these?
How do they compare to others? Thanks
