Gavin passes his IICRC

How many of you have ever heard of the IICRC?

I hear silence...no matter.

The IICRC is the industry standard when it comes to carpet cleaning. Meaning, if your cleaners are certified, then they are the best in the industry.

What does this mean to us?

Trust, predominantly. When you search for an employee, that's paramount. The IICRC accreditation means you have hired a trustworthy and highly qualified individual to work on your personal possessions.

What does this mean to you?

Well, it means that you have peace of mind. Gavin or one of our other IICRC qualified engineers would come out and service your needs to the best possible standard.

The IICRC is a continuous accreditation service as well. Up to date standards and education are part and parcel of the industry. We strive to be the best and these awards and certificates compound that status.

If you have any queries on the service you will receive from an IICRC member, you can either click on the above link and read what they say or you can look at our blogs; they highlight our service, standards and aspirations for both you, the client and us, the company.

'Bait & Switch' technique of dodgy carpet cleaner caught on camera by Rogue Traders

As with alIf it seems to good to be true..then it is! 'Bait & Switch' technique of dodgy carpet cleaner caught on camera by Rogue Tradersl industries there are some dodgy geezers out there that will try to scam the customer.  Unfortunately carpet cleaning is no different, and the best way to protect yourself is remember - "If it seems too good to be true.... then it probably is!"

In this video the Rogue Traders set up a "Client" to receive the unbelievable deal of having 2 rooms cleaned for £8.99!

How does Bate & Switch work?

The Bate - it's the unbelievable offer that lures you in, in this case it's the deal of £8.99 for two rooms to have their carpets cleaned.  The customer jumps at the offer and books in the technicain.

The Switch - the carpet cleaner arrives and tries their hardest to get you to switch from the original Bate offer to a more expensive offer by offering a list of reasons why you need or want to have the new offer.

Think you wouldn't fall for it? Well many people do! These people can be very convincing and come up with very sound reasons as to the advantages of making the Switch.

The Bait & Switch scam has been made an illegal code of practice since 2008

How do you know who to trust?

Most industries have associations that technicians will register and train with.  The associations regulate their members and ensure they are working to a high technical and ethical standard.
