Pic of carpet backing Heaven’s Best vs Steam

I second that, what a great idea. On that same subject, many, many years ago when I started cleaning carpets in Vero Beach, FL, I was cleaning in an elderly womens home which had sculptered berber. As I was vaccuming, the vaccum stopped and when I checked it out, the beater bar was full of fiber, wound so tight it stopped vaccum!!!! Now with a good sized hole in the carpet and scared as************* I went out on the screen porch and asked her if anyone else had cleaned this carpet. She said yes, 6 months ago I had Father & Son steam cleaning, they sold me the carpet and said I had to use them when I needed it cleaned. (Advantage of owning a carpet store and cleaning co. I guess) After walking on water for 2-weeks she said, never again and when I saw your ad in paper, Dry-in-one-Hour, I gave you a call. I asked her if I could lift carpet from wall near where I pulled out fiber, she said sure, The concrete floor had so much black mold from that water that not only did it stink, but it rotted the glue off the jute backing, that’s why the fibers came out. I often wanted to go back and ask her if I could have a piece of that carpet, to show my future customers. I never did!!!!!!!!!!!! I ask all my operators in FL to please stress the importance of a Dry-in-one-Hour process in a high humidity state like Fl.

We added on another carpet cleaning company that was going out of business a couple of years ago we bought their phone number and client list. I got a phone call a month later saying that we had ruined a customers wood floor. I said no way we don’t use that much water at all. I went to see sure enough the wood floor under their area rugs was rotted away black all the way down. The customer thought that we were the original steam cleaning company that we had purchased obviously I was glad we were not and that we do not steam clean.

can you please post that pic again? When I click on it, it says that attachment doesn’t exist anymore.
Thanks

I too would love to see these photos. I did a carpet estimate at a home last year (wool berber). The carpet was pretty stained. I asked the lady when was the last time she had her carpets cleaned and she said, “About 4 months ago” I was amazed ! She said Stanley Steamer (Stanley Soaker) did the carpet and it took almost 2 days to dry. She said that she had to put towels down across the hallway to get to the bedrooms.
