How Scotchgard® on our carpet and upholstery makes Thanksgiving better at our house

My mom has a love/hate relationship with Thanksgiving.

She LOVES having her family over to laugh, tell stories, play games and enjoy a great meal. She HATES having her family over to spill juice on the carpet, gravy on the chair and having to clean all the dishes. We help by doing the dishes and clean up after she and Dad feed us well. But as far as the carpet and upholstery go, I will be honest, I am nervous about going over there. AND, about a week before any big family event at her house, one of us kids will get the frantic call: "I can't do this! Why do I do this?"

"Mom, it's ok."

But honestly, I don't know if it is ok. I am afraid of the meltdown that could accompany any spills. It makes me tense. I certainly don't want to knock anything over, but it is almost as though the tension in the air about not spilling, makes even more accidents happen. It doesn't help the fact that Mom has very light colored carpet and the chairs have been re-upholstered to match the window treatments. Every fabric in her house coordinates, and therefore, is important to not ruin. And it seems my kids, my nieces and nephews, take this as a personal challenge and rebellion.

This year, Mom decided to Scotchgard® the chairs. This makes me take a sigh of relief. She also vacuums before the event and has the carpet cleaned after. Knowing she has this plan of action in place helps me feel more comfortable bringing the kids and allowing my elbows freedom without fear of my own clumsiness.

Scotchgard® protected carpets and upholstery is going to clean up easier. It helps by protecting the carpet and fabric fibers from permanent stains that they can pick up from dyes (like the ones in juice box drinks), and tearing from the saw-like grains of sand.

Champion Carpet and Upholstery Cleaning in Denver, Colorado is an Authorized Professional Scotchgard® Applicator. Some carpet companies say they can offer carpet protection services, but Scotchgard® brand is the trusted brand for all carpet fiber, and Champion knows how to apply it correctly to avoid problems. Correct application means it will properly cover the area without leaving unprotected areas or oversaturated and stiff areas, and it will dry properly. They will also clean the carpet in a way that won't strip the protect product from the application areas.

So, whether you are the "mom" or the guest, feel confident in the protection of Scotchgard® on your carpet and upholstery this Thanksgiving. And don't worry about your guest spilling things, Champion will get it clean.... Just in time for Christmas!
