They are coming!

Sleeping in your bed!

Showering in your shower!

Spilling on the floor!

Don't worry, we have you covered.

 

I have a friend who calls herself  "OCD", as in Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. This is a real psychological disorder that effects over 3 million Americans. And some people, like my friend, identify with it even though they don't have a clinical diagnosis. And some people identify their friends, or call them out, or yell in their face, "You have OCD!"

Whether tongue in cheek, or legitimate, the concerns and fears are very real to the person experiencing them. And while we are being a bit silly while talking about this, we also understand the reality of this disease and its debilitating effect on its sufferers.

You have a REAL fear about people coming into your home. We can help.

You may not have thought that a carpet cleaning company has the ability to help you with the OCD tendencies, or with just general cleanliness, whether spurred by phobia or not. In the Denver area, Champion Carpet and Upholstery Cleaning wants you to have the cleanliness solutions to help you when dealing with visiting over-night guests.

 

1. Carpet

   
   

Dirt, snow, mud, grease, tar, pesticides and other yuck can be riding on the shoes of your guests. Youngsters who are not normally in your home, may now be scooting around on your carpets. And let's face it, spills happen. Even if you put lids on all cups, plates of food, wine and other carpet stain hazards are increased when there are more bodies in your home. Steam cleaning with a truck mounted carpet cleaner is the best way to remove the evidence of this heavy traffic having been inside your home.

 

2. Tile

   
   

Tile grout is porous, making it a perfect place for dirt and stains to stay. Don't get on your hands and knees to clean it when a professional tile cleaning can get the floor back to its original splendor AND clean any dirt that has been deposited by your guests. Special attention given to corners and near baseboards, where stuff can get pushed when being swept or moped, means you will have a nice clean space to step barefoot once again upon.

3. Shower Stalls

   
   

Bathrooms can be the dirtiest areas of the home. And when guests have used your shower, it may be worth having a deep cleaning of the shower pan. Much like tile, shower pans can become dull and have a build-up of products. A degreasing product and hot steam can help bust any germs left by your visitors, again, without you slaving to get it clean.

4. Mattresses

   
   

Dust mites, oils, sweat and dirt are found in mattresses, and it's bad enough when it is your own. Without needing to know all of what your dear family or friends may have left behind on the guest bed, you can get it professionally cleaned. A mattress is treated like other pieces of upholstery and can be cleaned not just of the unseen but can also remove any stains that may be on the mattress.

5. 
   

   Furniture

   
   

Finally, furniture, whether a foot stool in the guest room or an ottoman in the living room, once your visitors have returned back home, a cleaning of the furniture may be in order. Spills can happen on the couch or chairs, especially if all your guests weren't seated at a dining table, but are scattered about the house, wherever seating was available. This may have been more comfy for them, but it means stains and spills could have happened outside of the dining area. Get on top of it and get it cleaned professionally so you can relax knowing it isn't harboring anything that could trigger your OCD.

Again, we have no intention of belittling a disorder, nor do we want to put you into a panic attack. But if we can help you to not be scrubbing all night after guests leave, we want to help. The solutions we offer are far beyond that of a cleaner and a toothbrush. We are more than carpet cleaning. We are an ally.
