AUSTIN, TX – February 25, 2026 – PRESSADVANTAGE –
The Steam Team, a locally owned cleaning service provider headquartered in Austin, Texas, has announced the expansion of its professional carpet cleaning services into several additional Central Texas communities. The company will now offer its full-service residential and commercial carpet care in West Lake Hills, Rollingwood, Bee Cave, Lakeway, Buda, Pflugerville, Round Rock, Manor, Cedar Park, and the surrounding areas.
Founded in 1983, The Steam Team has served property owners throughout Austin and Travis County for more than four decades. With this expansion, the company is extending its primary floor cleaning service beyond its established customer base to meet growing demand in neighboring cities across both Travis County and Williamson County.
Company leadership stated that the decision follows sustained population growth and residential development in communities surrounding Austin. Areas such as Cedar Park and Round Rock have experienced continued housing expansion, while Bee Cave and Lakeway have seen increased construction of custom homes featuring extensive carpeted living areas. The Steam Team’s management indicated that these trends have led to a measurable rise in service inquiries from outside central Austin.
David Marquardt, founder of The Steam Team, said the expansion reflects the company’s long-standing commitment to serving Central Texas property owners. “For more than 40 years, The Steam Team has focused on delivering professional carpet cleaning grounded in industry standards and local accountability,” David Marquardt said. “As surrounding communities continue to grow, it has become clear that residents and businesses in those areas are seeking experienced, IICRC-certified technicians who understand both residential and commercial flooring systems.”
The company’s carpet cleaning process follows the IICRC S100 Standard for Professional Cleaning of Textile Floor Coverings. Technicians utilize hot water extraction methods designed to remove embedded soil, allergens, and residues from carpet fibers. The approach includes inspection, pre-treatment of spots, fiber-appropriate cleaning solutions, controlled rinsing, and thorough extraction to promote proper drying times.
The expansion also supports commercial clients in the newly added cities. Office buildings in Downtown Round Rock, retail centers in Cedar Park, hospitality properties near Lake Travis, and mixed-use developments in Bee Cave increasingly require scheduled maintenance programs to maintain flooring performance and indoor air quality. The Steam Team has indicated that it will provide customized maintenance plans tailored to each property type.
Local environmental compliance remains part of the company’s operating framework. Cleaning practices are conducted in accordance with applicable City of Austin water quality regulations and Texas Commission on Environmental Quality guidance where relevant. The company noted that responsible wastewater handling and runoff management are incorporated into its procedures.
Real estate professionals across the region have also expressed growing demand for move-in and move-out carpet cleaning services. With the Central Texas housing market remaining active, including transactions facilitated by members of the Austin Board of Realtors, pre-listing floor cleaning has become a common preparation step for sellers. The Steam Team’s expansion will allow agents and property managers in communities such as Pflugerville and Manor to access certified technicians without extended scheduling delays.
Industry credentials remain central to the company’s public identity. The Steam Team maintains certification through the Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration Certification and participates in professional associations that promote cleaning standards and continuing education. The company is also active within the Austin Chamber of Commerce and maintains longstanding relationships with local property managers and business owners.
According to company representatives, equipment and staffing investments were made in preparation for the geographic expansion. Additional service vehicles have been deployed to reduce travel times between Austin and outlying areas such as Buda and Lakeway. Technicians assigned to the expanded territory have completed advanced training in textile identification, stain removal procedures, and moisture management techniques.
In addition to residential households, the expanded coverage area includes partnerships with multi-family communities, local school facilities, medical offices, and small businesses seeking routine carpet maintenance. Property managers in Sunset Valley and Rollingwood have increasingly requested recurring service schedules designed to extend the life of installed flooring while reducing long-term replacement costs. Company representatives noted that preventative maintenance remains a key focus as flooring materials continue to represent a significant investment for both homeowners and commercial operators.
David Marquardt added that maintaining consistent service quality across municipal boundaries remains a priority. “Growth must be measured and responsible,” he said. “Each new service area receives the same level of training, equipment support, and oversight that customers in Austin have come to expect.”
The Steam Team will continue operating from its two locations in Austin while coordinating scheduling across Travis County and Williamson County. Residential appointments, commercial contracts, and consultation requests for the newly added cities are now being accepted.
As Central Texas continues to develop, the company stated that it will evaluate additional service territories based on demand, staffing capacity, and regulatory considerations. For now, the focus remains on establishing reliable scheduling availability and maintaining adherence to recognized professional standards in each new community.
