Dave opened Petersen’s Carpet & Flooring in 1983 with the belief that excellent customer service, integrity and value are worthwhile goals. He believes that even more today. Prior to opening the business, Dave was a flooring installer for years. His installation experience guides him in problem solving unique and out of the ordinary installation requests and unforeseen problems that occasionally present themselves on jobs.
