“Are You Leaving Money Behind On The Floor?” (We hope not…)
Over the years, the carpet industry has lost a lot of market share to hard surfaces such as Stone and Tile. Are you offering cleaning and maintenance programs for these surfaces? You can charge up to $3 per square foot to clean, seal, and polish Stone, Tile and Grout. There are few industries that have seen the incredible growth that tile and stone maintenance has seen in the last few years. Are you leaving this money behind every time you walk across the stone or tile floor to get to the carpet you came to clean? Your customers invested a lot of money in these floors. Learn how to help them maintain their investment.
Guest speaker Dan Humbert, a third generation Stone and Tile man, has been running a successful Tile and Stone Contracting Restoration business for over 28 years. Throughout his career he has earned the respect of others through his knowledge and willingness to share secrets of the trade. He works with CTI Pro’s Choice as an instructor and helps in the development of new products. Dan will give a Powerpoint presentation on: “Introduction to Man Made Tile, Stone and Grout”
You will learn:
• What Man Made Tile is made of
• What are the different kinds of Stones?
• What Grout is made of
