The Advantage Group Carpet Cleaners (inc.) is a progressive association of carpet cleaning technicians, based in Western Australia.  Formed in 2001, its members had previously undertaken formal training through the Australian Carpet Cleaning Institute, and felt it important to maintain high standards by networking together and supporting each other.

Advantage Group members set high technical standards for themselves and are considered by many as an industry benchmark, with their attention to cleaning standards, occupational health & safety and environmental responsibility.  In May 2005, members of the Advantage Group became the first in Australia to achieve Certificate II in Asset Maintenance (PRM20604) a nationally recognised accreditation.  Members continue to apply themselves to advancing their professional knowledge and qualifications, with ongoing training, workshops and networking.  With the negotiating strength of numbers, the group enjoys many discounts with insurances, products and services, as well as representation with other industry bodies.

Members work together to maintain an impressive knowledge-base, and offer the best possible level of service to their customers.  With most members also offering upholstery, tile & grout cleaning/restoration and other specialised services, the Advantage Group is the first choice of discerning customers in WA.

New applicants to the Advantage Group are welcome, with support and mentoring offered to help them with their qualifications if required.  For more information, please telephone 0417 788 069 or visit www.agccwa.com
