Local Family Wins “Healthy Home” Sweepstakes

Garland, TX – Having a household filled with three children, a dog, two ferrets, two love birds and a fish tank can make the upkeep seem impossible. Texas residents, Celeste Stepp and her husband, have all of the above and struggle with the tough stains left behind by the dirt tracked in by their active kids and pets.

Scrolling through Facebook, Stepp stumbled on a giveaway offered by Chem-Dry, the world’s leading carpet and upholstery service. The “Spring into a Healthy Home” sweepstakes includes a year’s worth of carpet and upholstery services, valued at $1,000. Stepp thought about her stained carpet and hardwood stairs and decided to enter the contest through the Chem-Dry Facebook page. This May, Stepp was notified that she was chosen as the U.S. winner and that the services will be performed by the experts at Cornerstone Chem-Dry, located in Garland, Texas.

“We live in a townhome with wood flooring and carpeting, and I have such a hard time keeping it all clean and free of tracked-in dirt from my kids throughout the years.” Stepp said. “I thought as my kids got older, the dirtiness would slow down … but no, it definitely has not! I’m so excited to have Chem-Dry clean and refresh my home and make it feel like new.”

Without regular or professional cleaning, dirt, pet dander, dust and other allergens build up and can cause a plethora of problems. Bacteria and other unhealthy elements trapped by the carpets become airborne and circulate throughout the home, triggering serious symptoms such allergies and asthma and spreading germs.

“We’ve been in business for 25 years and are happy to provide this family an opportunity for a fresh, clean home that also promotes a healthier lifestyle,” said owners of Cornerstone Chem-Dry, Erika and Randy Herman. “We know how challenging it can be for our customers to maintain a healthy home with the combination of things like pet accidents and child-induced messes. Chem-Dry’s proprietary technology is proven to combat and tackle these tough cleaning projects and we couldn’t be more thrilled to offer the Stepp family a helping hand.”
