In 1992 Brent Pillers, a marketing representative for Energas, bought a mobile floor covering franchise and left the security of a good company to fulfill the dream of becoming an entrepreneur.  The adjustment was difficult, but through perseverance the company thrived.

   

Two years later in 1994, Pam Pillers, who was working in the cotton brokerage business, bough Cecil's Drapery's, an established drapery and upholstery business of over 40 years.  It was soon thereafter that Brent integrated the floor coverings with the drapery business.  The business made a name change the following year to Cecil's Carpet and Interiors.  With the change in marketing strategies for floor covering retailers, Pam and Brent bought in to a national buying group.  Abbey Carpet, the oldest franchise in the United States, became the buying group for Cecil's Carpet and Interiors.  Abbey Carpet has over 700 franchisees in the United States and does business with all the major carpet, wood, and ceramic manufacturers in the U.S. and abroad.

   

In 1997 Brent Pillers and Scott Campbell opened Custom Tile and Stone of Lubbock next door to Cecil's Carpet and Interiors.  In 2002 Brent took over full ownership of Custom Tile and Stone.  It brought a fresh look to the tile industry with a state of the art showroom.  It provides the customer with over 3000 square feet of tile installed in different venues on the showroom floor with beautiful bathroom and kitchen vignettes.

   

In 1999 Custom Tile and Stone diversified into the manufactured cabinet business and opened under the name of Custom Kitchen and Bath.  The storefront was next to Custom Tile and Stone and it offered stock, semi-custom, and custom cabinet lines.  Finally, in late 2003, in order to take full advantage of the Abbey buying group name and to consolidate our product lines into one company, Brent changed the name to Abbey Home Center.
