Carpet cleaning machine
Speaking gibberish on internet talkboards since last Michaelmas. Plus here on Twitter -
I would have thought most households have installed hard wood flooring so not sure this would be a viable Plan B.Originally posted by MrMark View PostHas anyone here any experience of these? Looking into this as a possible Plan B. -
Many moons ago a man came round with a van with a huge carpet cleaning machine built into a van.
Allowed him to clean a whole house top to bottom very quickly compared to the usual domestic carpet cleaners.
I would expect the machine cost a few bob.
Not a very exciting prospect, cleaning people's stinking carpets mind. Unless you are just going buy a suite of these and hire immigrants on min wage to do the dirty work.Comment
