History
Bud and Barbara Snyder opened
Spotsgard dry cleaners in 1968
in Aurora, Illinois. The
knowledge and experience that
they gathered about spot
removal, chemical usage, types
of fabric and how each reacted
to different kinds of chemicals
has been very useful in helping
build a successful carpet
cleaning business.
In 1972, they sold the dry
cleaners and started Steamgard
Carpet Cleaners. Steamgard began
as a single portable machine and
a one man crew. In 1978, Brent
Snyder (their son) joined the
company, and they soon purchased
their first truck-mount unit.
With the power to do large jobs
more efficiently and with much
higher quality, Steamgard began
to grow in both the residential
and commercial fields.
The
Snyders expanded their cleaning
service to the fire restoration
field in the 1980's. They
incorporated the business under
the name Smoke and Odor Service
(SOS) and added Steamgard Carpet
Cleaners as a subsidiary of SOS.
SOS was a successful business
for several years until the
Snyder's decided that they no
longer wished to handle the fire
restoration services and
returned to focusing solely on
carpet cleaning. Bud also
has 23 years of experience
testing, selling and servicing
carpet cleaning equipment and
chemicals.
In January 2006,
Barbara Snyder passed
away leaving
Bud as the sole
owner of Steamgard. He continued
to expand the company with the
help of his son, Brent. Bud
passed away in March 2010.
Brent and his wife, Sara, will
continue to grow the family
business with the same focus on
high quality and excellent
customer service that has made
Steamgard a success over the
years.
