Pre-inspection or carpet cleaning audit....what you need to knowSample AuditHere is a sample of what a carpet cleaning audit or pre-inspection questionnaire might look like. If your cleaner does not use a form or follow a line of questions like it, you may be missing out on great service and professionalism from another cleaner. An IICRC certified cleaner will always want to do a pre-inspection or audit of any job, and if he or she doesn't already use a form like this one, print a copy of these pages, and let them use them. Both of you will be glad for the information that is provided. If they are IICRC Certified, remind them that the reason you are inviting them into your home or business, is because you want a carpet cleaning that is performed to IICRC standards.
