    Upon moving into a house once decided to change carpets. When they came up they stank of cat pee. Looks like the cat just peed on the carpet.....

    An ex-girlfriend's dad was a social worker. At an old people's home he visited there was always an uncommon(?) stink of pee, emanating from a cushion left on a radiator.
    Transpired one old dear would take her seat in the TV room for the day and to avoid having to walk to the toilet and lose her spot, would sit on a cushion, allowing her to take a leak at her leisure. Then she'd dry it overnight.

    Carpet cleaning is extremely hard work.

    Domestic Cleaning Agency - good residual income - don't get yer hands dirty.

    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.

    I would have thought most households have installed hard wood flooring so not sure this would be a viable Plan B.
