you do get some comedians on the forums this dialogue made me laugh

  1. snow stops most carpet cleaners in great Brittain
  1. My post last week was quite appropriate because as always when it snows in Great Britain everything grinds to a halt We have had over a £1000 worth of carpet cleaning work cancel today and after my experiences of last year having had my van banged up twice I would rather wait until the snow and ice clear.
    I purchased some snow socks came today but the problem in GB is there is no law forcing people to take such measures as using snow chains or snow socks in such conditions and some drivers are clueless they don’t realise until it’s too late just how much damage a vehicle sliding on ice at just 10mph can dohttp://www.carpet-cleaning-chelmsford.co.uk/

£1000……… jeess…. don’t you hate it when those £1000 days cancel

You certainly look like you’re a big strong lad ! with a neck that size I reckon you could strap a truck mount to your back and and straddle the water tanks to your flanks at the same time! Love your sense of humor…. But I did not say I was earning a grand a day! I said (quote…. had over a £1000 pounds worth of work cancel today) that’s today work and tomorrows and someone cancelled a job on Thursday….. Wish I did earn that in a day…. would be in Florida right now sunning it up…..it just too risky taking out a fully laden truck mounted transit van! if someone drives into you like they did to me last year you are stuffed it cost us two weeks work last year loss of no claims and £350 excess because the DIPSTICK WAS NOT INSURED

snow halts play once again

November 30th, 2010

Same old story! Bit of snow the country comes to a standstill….. earnings come to a halt!

Just had a call from a fellow carpet cleaner  Chelmsford based they got stuck for several hours earlier today!

I had been thinking about buying some snow chains for our transit vans especially the truck mount after having a couple of nasty experiences earlier on this year but opted at the end of the day for ordering snow socks am still awaiting delivery! Any one reading this blog had experience of using them?

Most clients are cancelling and who can blame them who want carpet cleaners tramping in and out of their homes with such inclement  weather.

The main consideration for us as carpet cleaners  Essex throughout the county  is keeping the van intact driving to and from customers houses ! We ended up cancelling several days work because the driving conditions around Essex   became so hazardous it was like skating on ice around some of the smaller roads and after several incidents resulting in damage to the van we all decided it was not worth the risk especially considering the potential for injury getting in and out of homes carrying equipment.

So lets hope the cold snap and snow go away quickly

carpet cleaning southend

May 31st, 2010

   It’s that time of year again for the Southend On Sea air show and the huge crowds it attracts each year! There are Red arrows this time round  they are grounded! I always look forward to seeing them perform! I do like Southend and its neighbouring areas places like Leigh on Sea , Chalkwell, Thorpe Bay, Rochford and Hockley they have a great deal to offer us as local carpet cleaners Southend on Sea based due to the fact there are some very desirable properties many of them in the high price end of the  property market. There is also a very buoyant rental property market across the Southend on Sea borough this is clearly evident to us because many Estate agents recommend our business as carpet cleaners Leigh on Sea through to Thorpe Bay as company you can trust for  carpet and upholstery cleaning  for their clients who they look after  rental lettings for! There is a large student population in Southend because of the campus of Essex University and this is also a welcome source of work each summer as properties have to be cleaned for the Year’s intake of new students.

One of the busiest areas for us locally is my favourite location in Essex that’s Leigh on Sea and Chalkwell and the amount of carpet  and upholstery cleaning that we carry out locally in this area reflects our favouritism is not misplaced, we also specialise in oriental rug cleaning and this service is very sought after locally. Old Leigh on Sea is unique in that you have great views  across the Thames, great sunsets to look out for character in abundance with all the local fishing boats that supply their produce to an array of very popular local restaurants ranging from Noveue cuisine to some very fine Chinese and  Indian restaurants, there is always a great atmosphere in the local pubs and the High Street Leigh on Sea boasts some very fine bars, bistros and restaurants and a variety of shops ranging from art shops to  high end fashion clothes shops to an array of antique shops that are apparelled anywhere else in the UK. Over the years our company have carried out commercial carpet cleaning work for many of these local businesses giving us a unique insight into the local character of Leigh and neighbouring Chalkwell.

There has been a huge amount of building development further along the coast at Shoeburyness and the old garrison has been transformed with a variety of properties ranging from the ultra modern sea front apartment that are quite eye catching to the modernised terraced homes that constituted the former barracks in the old garrison, and what is very nice is the ministry of defence having sold the land for development have made it possible for the council to have built a pathway running all along the sea front now from the east beach Shoebury to Thorpe bay and beyond if you so wish!

The weather halts our work carpet cleaning in Essex.

January 10th, 2010

Hi everyone

Driving to and from several different locations a day in a van with over a metric ton of   truck mounted  carpet cleaning equipment and water tanks has become far to hazardous, the side roads are sheets of ice in places and the pathways and driveways to and from peoples homes are a hazard in their own right for carrying the hoses and carpet cleaning tools from the van to the clients house! (No one seems to clear their pathways any more from the snow) the main culprits though are the people sitting snug in their local government jobs who have a responsibility to make sure our roads are safe they still get paid if they cannot get to work! Self employed Essex carpet cleaners don’t! 

Happy days and sunshine I hope!

Luc

Dont forget we cover all Essex including Chelmsford, Romford, Colchester, Southend on Sea, Basildon, Grays and Brentwood!

Carpet cleaners Essex thankyou for your custom

December 26th, 2009

Would just like to thank you all of for the continued support of our carpet cleaning business in Essex over the last 12 months. Its been nice to see many of the clients come back on a regular basis each year so we must be doing our work of cleaning Rugs  carpets  and upholstery to your satisfaction or you would not be calling us back.

It has been a testing year with a very slow start building up to a crescendo in the last 3 weeks and boy have we been busy even the old maestro has been out cleaning he even managed a large 3 piece suite cleaning on a Sunday just to make sure we could fit every one in before the Christmas break.

The snow and resultant icy conditions proved very trying for us carrying out our work as carpet cleaners in Essex as it was very dangerous for us to get to and from some places but  we managed to get to every one almost on time which was a result considering the atrocious conditions.

Hope you enjoyed your Christmas and we would like to wish you well for the New Year from all the crew at Carpet Cleaners Essex.

Best wishes luc
