Don't gamble with your carpet cleaning!

Are you hosting family or friends this holiday season? Whether it’s just a few guests or the whole crew, getting your home ready doesn’t have to be overwhelming. Instead of tackling everything at once, try this 12 days of easy prep plan—simple daily steps that’ll have your home sparkling, cozy, and guest-ready by the time the holidays arrive!

  • Day 1: Bathroom Cabinets & Medicine Cabinet – Start small! Clear out expired products, wipe down shelves, and tidy up. You’ll be glad you did when curious guests take a peek.
  • Day 2: Kitchen Cabinets & Pantry – Wipe shelves, organize dishes, and toss outdated food. A refreshed pantry makes cooking and hosting easier.
  • Day 3: Refrigerator Refresh – Make space for holiday leftovers by clearing out old condiments and giving the fridge and freezer a good scrub.
  • Day 4: Carpets, Rugs & Upholstery – This is our specialty! A professional deep clean removes dust, dander, and stubborn spots so your home feels fresh and welcoming. Schedule early—holiday appointments fill fast!
  • Days 5-7: Closets – Spread this over a few days. Straighten up one closet at a time and make space for guests’ coats and bags.
  • Days 8-9: Home Office or “Everything Room” – Tidy the desk, file stray papers, and wipe down dusty surfaces. You’ll love starting the new year with an organized space.
  • Day 10: Shoe Storage Shuffle – Gather scattered shoes and set up a simple system for guests to use when they arrive.
  • Days 11-12: Beds & Under Bed Cleanup – Freshen guest bedding, fluff pillows, and clear out under-bed clutter. Your guests will notice the comfort— and you’ll sleep better, too!

A little effort each day makes a big difference. And remember, when it comes to carpets and upholstery, Jensen’s Carpet Care & Restoration is here to make your home shine bright for the holidays!

Urgent! There are only a few appointments left in our schedule before the holidays. Don’t miss out on a pre-holiday cleaning…Call now!

The countdown has begun! Many of our clients have responded to our reminders about calling us early for pre-holiday carpet cleaning, but if you are one of those people who still needs to grab an appointment waiting much longer can be…a real bummer.

It happens every year, like clockwork. At the eleventh hour we get a desperate phone call from a dear client who has let “clean the carpets before the holiday guests arrive” slip to the bottom of their “to-do list.” Unfortunately, when they call we’re usually already booked solid. That’s when the begging and pleading begins. If only they would have called us sooner, by the time their holiday guests and parties arrived their carpet would have looked…brand spanking new!

Instead of healthy, clean carpets before the holidays, this client often finds themselves on our “cancellation list” with their fingers crossed. Please don’t let that be you this year. Don’t worry, at this point, you can still have clean carpets before your guests and parties and festivities commence. You can still have your tired carpets transformed so they are fluffy and clean. You can still have all your spots and spills removed. (The ones that have been bugging you since last Christmas.) Because…it’s NOT too late yet.

You still have a little bit of time to call us and grab a pre-holiday cleaning appointment, but only if you call now!
