Fast Track - Diversify your Business
2017-05-04 08:00 - 17:00
A series of 3 – 2 hour workshops to enhance your business
Tile and Grout Cleaning Course# DIW109 (2 Hours):
Tile and grout cleaning is one of the number one “add-on” services in the industry right now. You are typically getting three to four times per square foot or more over what you charge for carpet, and many times tile is easier to clean than carpet. Adding a few simple tools such as the SX-12 and Gekko from Hydroforce Manufacturing, you can immediately turn your truck mount into the most efficient tile and grout cleaning machine available. You can also perform this work with high pressure portables such as the Olympus M1200, also from Hydroforce.

With this service, many times any investment you make up front is recovered in the first couple of jobs, therefore making this one of the most profitable services you can perform.
Upholstery Cleaning, Course# DIW100 (2 Hours):
With the advancements that have been made in cleaning tools and chemistry such as the Hydrokinetic Tool and the Bridgepoint Avenge Upholstery Cleaning System, upholstered fabric is easier and more profitable to clean than ever before. Contractors charge $8 – $10 per foot on the low end, to well over $25 per foot on the high end depending on fiber type and construction. The fee for an average synthetic sofa is $120 which is over $150 per hour income. Delicates such as high end silks or restorative cleaning procedures bring a much higher dollar amount.

Oriental Rug Cleaning, Course# DIW104 (2 Hours):
Most every home or office building you enter has wood, tile or stone flooring somewhere on the premises. This means most of these floors also have area rugs. This provides a tremendous income opportunity for the “on-location” cleaner for cleaning and protection of these rugs. This service brings about an average charge of $1 – $3 per square foot depending on fiber type and construction and can usually be done on location. As you move into “investment grade” or heirloom rugs which can be valued in the tens of thousands of dollars or more, there are “In Plant” procedures available. These require special training and typically a significant investment to get involved; however, this is a very profitable service that many times brings in fees of $3 – $7 per square foot or more.
