Or do you have just a 1 price for any any carpets regardless of condition ???
Matt Murdock said:same all the time now. My prices are my prices. They decided it was dirty and I clean them.
I use to charge more for prescrub but I got so much shit from people on the boards about being a bait and switch i decided I didn't want my name hurt if people googled me, so I dropped the charge
royalkid said:no extra charge...if we say we're the best and give a price...that price shouldn't be the "only if it's not really dirty" price.
When I worked for my first CD we bonnet cleaned...which I hated! We got a CTS-450 (CD TM) and no one wanted to fuss with it...I couldn't wait to get in that van...but the owners were so use to charging people based on padding that they told me to charge 50% extra to use TM on "heavily soiled" carpets....ex: if job was 3 rooms for $100, with TM it's $150. I would NOT do it. I went to custys homes and used that machine all day/everyday...and would post bonnet for regular price. I NEVER charged extra unless the office booked the job for the TM and charge was already there. The point is....I cared about the quality of my worksmanship...it took longer and was harder work...but I was proud of the job i did and knew it was right...and 100% WRONG to advertise "Superior Carpet Cleaning" when you're only using a buffer w/ pads. The next CD only uses TM's...and it's the same price for EVERYONE....if carpet looks good...we TM, if carpets trashed we use TM...maybe not as much pre-spray and don't take as long, but everyone's getting the same cleaning. If it's trashed and takes 1 hour for 1 room, oh well, that's the name of the game...take the bad with the good.
