A day in the life

Morning starts with a quick huddle at the Aramsco Richmond shop. You review service tickets, grab your tools, and roll up your sleeves. First up, a truck-mounted carpet cleaning unit with a sputtering 4-cylinder gas engine. You reference the schematics, run diagnostics, and bring it back to life. After lunch, you move through a portable extractor that’s lost suction, a dehumidifier with a control fault, and an air scrubber due for preventative maintenance. You keep the bench tidy, document findings, and explain repairs to customers in straightforward terms. Along the way you collaborate with store teammates to make sure parts are ready and customers are delighted.
