Locally owned and operated by Justin Flirt, Carpet Surgeon has been serving the greater Portland and Vancouver area for over 40 years.

Since the beginning, Carpet Surgeon has been working with residential and commercial clients to clean and repair their carpets, hard floor surfaces, and upholstery.

Carpet Surgeon was founded by Glen and Colleen Meichtry with a simple belief: do the job right, treat people honestly, and stand behind your work. Over time, they built more than a company; they built trust with Portland families and companies. That trust is what drew me here.

I grew up in the carpet cleaning and repair world, working alongside my dad in his own business. I learned early that quality, attention to detail, and respect for someone’s home matter. When I moved to Oregon, I didn’t just want any job; I wanted the right company. The kind that felt familiar. The kind that reminded me of working for my dad. I found that the moment I met Glen at the Carpet Surgeon.

Working side by side with Glen for five years, I learned the standards that made this company what it is. As Glen and Colleen prepared for retirement, we stepped in, not to change what worked, but to protect it. Our goal wasn’t to start something new. It was to carry on a legacy.

Today, Carpet Surgeon continues with the same craftsmanship, honesty, and care it’s been known for, now led by a husband-and-wife team fully invested in its future. I bring over 20 years of hands-on experience, and Sydney brings her strength in organization, operations, and long-term planning.

It’s an honor to carry this legacy forward and keep Carpet Surgeon trusted for generations to come.
