There are different type of equipment to use in your stone restoration
business, I know guys that do over a million dollars a year and use floor
machines and wet and dry vac. I also know guys that do the same amount of
business and use truck mounts while doing stone restoration.  The questions
is how much money you want to invest? Thousands of dollars for a truck mount
or hundreds of dollars for a good wet and dry vac.
Certainly set-up and tear down time could have an impact. The maintenance
need to maintain a truck mount with the slurry going into the system, if
depend upon your needs, are you doing carpets . are you using it on tile and
grout cleaning, I don't feel that a good or bad for either piece of
equipment.  If I had a truck mount unit I would choose the type of jobs I
put that truck on. My preference is to use a wet and dry vac. When I send
out a crew or add a new crew I only need to buy floor machines, hand
machines , and vac diamonds  etc. and don't need to spend thousand for the
truck mount. I can buy enough equipment to add another crew for what it
costs for the truck mount unit. Do at the end of the day you need to
determine the type of work that you're doing and the return on investment
you going to get, and does it speed up the process any.

Subject: New work van

Hey Pro's
I'm looking to get a brand-new "Carpet cleaning van" for stone restoration.
I currently have two with "PTO's" power take off's cleanco 56. I always like
them and they work well. But I read an article that some slid in units have
more suction and more heat.
Can you share your comments and recommendations please?

Thank you
