Our Team

Since opening our doors in 1975, Russell’s Carpet has remained a fixture of the retail landscape in Ridgefield. Our owner, Herb Lowe, has assembled a team of family members and others who have become like family – all who are dedicated to continuing our decades long commitment of providing exceptional floor coverings and service to our valued community of customers.

We have been covering the floors of Ridgefield and the surrounding area for so long that there are families in town whose parents as well as grandparents have also had their floors carpeted by us. One of the constants throughout most of this time has been Herb. After joining the team in the 70’s as a part-time installer, Herb quickly began learning every aspect of the business and performing every job. His commitment and passion for helping people make their floors look spectacular led him to ownership of the business in 1992. More than 30 years later, he is still active on a daily basis in the business lending his deep expertise on flooring to anyone who walks through the door.

Herb has seen many changes in the carpet business since his days as an installer, but he attributes the success of the business to the quality of the materials made by our carefully selected manufacturers, the expertise of our installers and the loyalty of our customers. As we approach our 50 year anniversary, we look back fondly on the years when Ridgefield was a bit quieter, but look forward to continuing the friendly, small town atmosphere we have provided all along.
