Carpet One Floor & Home recently purchased the building and moved from their previous location in Lexington, SC.
Carpet One Floor & Home owner Wayne Kirby said, “We have been very pleased with our move to West Columbia. Our business has improved over 20% since relocating to Sunset Boulevard. We guarantee the lowest prices and best service and have been family and locally owned for over 34 years.”
“We are so thrilled to have a thriving business such as Carpet One join our growing area on Sunset Boulevard. Their attention to beautification is spurring more interest for others to do the same,“ said Kathy Whetzel, Chairperson, West Columbia Beautification Foundation.

The West Columbia Beautification Foundation is committed to redefining West Columbia as an impressive and attractive place to live, work, or visit by involving the entire community in positive beautification efforts. In 2008, local community leaders, elected officials, and city staff collaborated to establish the West Columbia Beautification Foundation, a nonprofit organization designed to energize West Columbia as an attractive place to live, work, and visit.
The West Columbia Beautification Foundation partners with the City of West Columbia to beautify both public and private areas through landscaping and other projects. The Beautification Foundation provides a mechanism to accept tax-deductible contributions for this purpose. The Foundation solicits individual and corporate sponsorships to aid the city in obtaining funds for beautification projects along West Columbia’s major thoroughfares, the expansion of tree canopies, and the development of green spaces. Twelve Foundation Directors were selected from persons who live, work, or own businesses in the city. These directors are working to make genuine changes that will have a long-term positive impact on the economy, environment, and livability of the West Columbia community. The Foundation is a non-profit corporation under the SC Nonprofit Corporation Act as a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organization.
