Taking On Holiday Stains

It’s that time of year when you start planning for family and friends to visit and since you are hospitable, you start thinking of all the delicious meals, snacks, and beverages you will serve them when they arrive.

A Weekend Lost

You work hard all week and look forward to the weekend, a time to relax and enjoy family and friends (but you still have to mow the grass!)

But, sometime during the week, you look down. You aren’t happy with the condition of the carpet. So you make a decision to rent a do-it-yourself carpet cleaning machine from your local grocery store.
