“Mrs. Fix It” Joins the “We Can Fix That” Franchise Family, Launches Newest Creative Colors International Location in Houston, TX
Houston, TX (PRWEB) March 21, 2016 -- Creative Colors International, the nation’s leading on-site repair and restoration franchise, launched its newest Texas location on February 1, 2016 in Harris and Montgomery Counties. This is big news as more local business owners and cost-conscious residents than ever before are seeking out alternatives to astronomical upholstering charges and replacement fees associated with damaged possessions composed of leather, vinyl, plastic and fabric.
“Mrs. Fix-It,” as she calls herself, Susan Leimone, said she has spent years making other companies money and now she wants to create her own legacy. She has opened the newest Creative Colors International (CCI) location right here in Northwest Houston. According to Susan, Creative Colors International’s revolutionary products and restoration techniques will help local customers save up to 90% on replacement fees by repairing worn and/or damaged materials.
“I think Creative Colors has an amazing concept. If you can repair instead of replace and save money then that is a win-win for everyone,” said Leimone.
Leimone spent years working in retail management. However, when her first husband died, Leimone was forced to reduce her workload in order to raise her daughter as a single mother. Leimone said it was during this tough time that she developed her unshakeable “Mrs. Fix-It” mentality.
“Cash-strapped and supporting my daughter as a single parent, if I didn’t fix it, it didn’t get done,” said Leimone. “So, if the bathroom needed repairs, I did it. If the floors needed replacing, I did the work. Due to these experiences, I have full confidence I can fix anything with my own hands and brainpower. And now, as a Creative Colors International business owner and a member of the ‘We Can Fix That’ franchise family, I can truly live up to my ‘Mrs. Fix-It’ nickname!”
The statistics suggest that repairing and restoring, as opposed to upholstering and replacing, can save local business owners and residents hundreds of dollars on any damaged item. For example, the costs associated with upholstering any type of seat can be very steep, ranging anywhere from $120 to $450 per cushion. And according to Terri Sniegolski, Creative Colors International’s CEO, the commitment shared by all franchisees to help customers save money, and deliver on the company’s “We Can Fix That” philosophy, has been the key catalyst for the company’s expansion to 54 locations in 24 states with 125+ mobile units since its initial inception in 1980.
“We’re excited to open our next Creative Colors location in Houston because we know Susan shares the same ‘We Can Fix That’ attitude our other successful franchisees possess,” said Sniegolski. “We are thrilled about our expansion in Texas because we know the local business owners and customers in the Northwest Houston community will be eager to repair and restore their possessions at a fraction of the cost.”
