Company
History
Professional Carpet Systems was founded in 1978 by
Joe and John Lunsford, whose mother, Jean Beason was an accomplished
chemist. They wanted to find a way to extend the life of carpet when the
carpet was still in good condition, but the appearance was unacceptable
due to loss of coloring or the color of the carpet was no longer what the
consumer wanted. After years of research and testing, Ms. Beason came up
with a unique on location dyeing system and after extensive testing they
launched Professional Carpet systems in Atlanta, Georgia. Their system was
immediately embraced in the market place and the company was a huge
success.
Not wanting to keep this concept to himself, but
realizing that he could not expand it throughout the United States by
himself, Joe turned to franchising the PCS system in 1982. Today PCS has
expanded it's services to include carpet repair, water damage restoration,
ceramic tile/grout cleaning, hardwood floor refinishing (sandless),
upholstery and oriental rug cleaning. Professional Carpet Systems boasts
of 75 active franchises in 32 states, including Nashville, TN, plus Canada and internationally in 7
foreign countries. The average franchise in the PCS system has been
associated with the organization for over 9.5 years.
PCS has been in Nashville for over 10 years
