It was 1957 when Ed Lippert first opened the doors. Today, son Wes Lippert and grandson Scott Lippert are operating the largest floor covering retail outlets from Portland to Sacramento right here in southern Oregon.
Wes Lippert reflects on the changes he's seen over the years: "In the 1980's we made a decision to partner with Carpet One. With over 1000 Carpet Onestores worldwide, we can offer our customers the advantage of this enormous buying power. It's a winning combination for our customers because we pride ourselves locally as having the most professional sale staff and installation teams. And with the buying power of Carpet One, we can offer selection and warranties at prices that beat the national chains."
When it comes to service, Scott Lippert believes local ownership is the difference: "When owners are involved in the day to day operations, the decision making process is very fast. This allows us to insure that every customer is completely satisfied with their new floor."
