Stutters Disaster Kleenup began its operations in Kelowna, British Columbia in 1982 under the name Stutters Construction Co Ltd. Keith Stutters, the founder and C.E.O. of Stutters, two of Keith's brothers, and a few others were the original crew who began a business of disaster restoration in and around Kelowna. Stutters built its reputation, resources, and its body of core personel in Kelowna until 1995 when it became feasible to offer services and skills in other areas of the Okanagan Valley. The company began operations in Vernon in 1995 and in Penticton in 1996.
In 1998, Stutters joined Disaster Kleenup International, or Disaster Kleenup Canada (DKC) in Canada, a North American association of restoration specialists and professionals. DKC is Canada's largest emergency response organization and handles more than 60,000 claims each year for the insurance industry alone. DKC's unique structure allows member companies, such as Stutters, to pool resources, expertise, and technology. DKC members must meet the highest professional requirements in the industry, and adhere to a set of Professional Standards and Ethics, which Stutters upholds with pride and honor.

In 2004, Stutters Disaster Kleenup started a new Contents Division that specializes in content restoration. Stutters' latest addition to the Contents Division is a new warehouse in Kelowna, featuring many state-of-the-art facilities, including ozone rooms for deodorizing damaged goods, a cleaning assembly line, ample heated and secure storage, and a computerized bar code system for in-transit property and inventory. This Content Division warehouse has its grand opening in early 2007.
Since its inception, Stutters' reputation has been based on and built upon the dedication and professionalism of the people who work for the company. In an industry that subsists on the pain and losses suffered by its clients, Stutters' personnel have exemplified the good name that Stutters has earned through meticulous attention to detail, and courteous, considerate, and conscientious treatment of the people with whom they interact.
