Carpet/Furniture Care - Angel Ceballos [Monday, July 21, 2008] I am currently performing turnover cleans for a management development group and they have asked if I would be interested in performing a tidy-up service. The service would be just like that of a hotel maid; any additional service would require a different rate. I would like to know what the rate for a hotel maid would be and what we should be charging for full service condo cleans. Residential, Apartment & Condo - Patricia Spruill [Monday, July 21, 2008] We are currently cleaning (on a 7-day schedule, midnight to dawn) a very busy cafe/restaurant/bakery. My problem is a metallic rusty stain on terrazzo tile, caused by a floor courtesy sign. The rust is getting less prominent, but can you suggest a method to get rid of it once and for all? Hard & Resilient Floor Care - Chris Tsakiridis [Sunday, July 20, 2008] Is there any way to removal yellowish/brown traffic lanes from vinyl composition tile (VCT) ?
