A Legacy of Innovation & Leadership Since 1989

Carpetech™ has been a trusted name in professional cleaning across Penticton and the South Okanagan for more than three decades. Originally founded as Carsten’s Carpet Cleaning & Rug Repair, the brand has grown, evolved, and led the industry through multiple eras of change—always with a commitment to quality, professionalism, and forward‑thinking service.

Early Beginnings & Industry Firsts
Long before most local service businesses embraced digital communication, Carpetech™ was already exploring new ways to connect with customers. In the early 1990s, the company promoted its services through local Bulletin Board Services (BBS), becoming one of the first cleaning firms in the region to adopt online communication—years before the modern web took shape.

When the internet became publicly accessible, Carpetech™ continued to lead.
Carpetech.ca became:

- One of the first cleaning firms in the South Okanagan with a dedicated website

- The first local cleaning company in its industry to secure a “.ca” domain

- A uniquely identifiable brand with no affiliation to similarly spelled businesses

This early adoption helped establish Carpetech™ as a recognizable and trusted name long before digital marketing became standard.

Commitment to Sustainable Cleaning
Carpetech™ was also an early adopter of environmentally conscious cleaning practices. Long before “eco‑friendly” became an industry trend, the company was offering sustainable cleaning solutions and low‑moisture methods designed to reduce waste, conserve water, and improve indoor air quality.

This commitment to responsible cleaning remains a core part of the brand’s identity today.

Growth, Evolution & Specialized Services
Over the years, Carpetech™ expanded its offerings to include:

- Carpet and upholstery cleaning

- Area rug care

- Mattress cleaning

- Specialized spot and stain treatments

- Odour remediation and deodorizing

- Protective fabric treatments

During its growth years, the company also operated additional service divisions, including flood and fire restoration and the CRS Housekeeping subsidiary. As the industry evolved—and especially following the COVID‑19 era—Carpetech™ strategically streamlined its operations to focus on the specialized cleaning services that best reflect its expertise and long‑standing reputation.
