Build a Business Using a 50 Year Old SystemClassic Carpet Care was founded by Linda and Randy Longenbach in 1973 operating out of their small Roswell, Georgia home. The business involved many long hours and a lot of hard work. Because of their desire to succeed, the business continued to grow and they packed up the home office and moved to a small office/warehouse location in Alpharetta, Georgia in 1978. Linda and Randy were dedicated to providing only the best quality service and superior customer service in the Atlanta area and Southeast United States. Classic Carpet Care expanded their services to accommodate the growing needs of the commercial and hospitality industries, and in 1995, changed the name to Classic Commercial Services. Today Classic Commercial Services is now open in 4 cities and expanding rapidly across the country. Our growth and success could not have been possible without our loyal family of clients. We take pride in always providing the highest quality of work with attention to detail, and we strongly uphold our philosophy to treat each customer with the utmost professionalism and care. We look forward to welcoming you to the Classic Family.
