Got this email this morning:
Hi Meg,
I wanted to touch base with you regarding the cleaning that I had done on Tuesday. It was a pleasure meeting your husband and assistant and I was very impressed with their wealth of knowledge and professionalism as I was not here the last time you cleaned. While I'm very happy with my carpets (they look much brighter and I know they are cleaner) I am not thrilled with the result of my sofa. From the start they told me that because the material was a cotton there was no way that they would be able to completely eliminate the stains but that the cleaning would make it look better. I have to say that I think it looks worse. Being in the interior design industry I completely understand limitations however it was never suggested to me that by cleaning it there was a chance that it would look worse! If they had said that I'm not sure if I would of gone through with it. I had been debating as to whether I had it cleaned or whether I replaced the cover with a faux leather that was more durable.
I'm not sure if there's anything else that you can do here but I thought I would bring it to your attention.
Was out of the office all day with meetings so sent her an email back telling her I was sorry to hear she was unsatisfied and that I'd call her this afternoon so we can work toward a resolution.
Then we have been playing phone tag all afternoon.
So, you've had a taste of how I handle these kind of thing. How do you think it's going to go down? How would you handle this?
