We are thrilled to announce that Paul Davis of the Triad-East, NC, located in Greensboro, NC, is now open and operating. Congratulations to Owners Mark and Mary Gunyuzlu, and welcome to our Paul Davis family!

Mark and Mary are excited to serve home and business owners in their community. “We look forward to bringing our best-in-class Paul Davis brand to the Greensboro area providing great service and care to our community,” said Mark. They saw the business potential of the restoration industry and the collective value of becoming a franchisee to help them accelerate growth. All of which fits perfectly with a service company whose values and culture align with the principle: People first, the property next. “Having looked at several business opportunities over the past 18 months, we knew right away that we had found our home when we found Paul Davis,” said Mary.
Mark has been working in the corporate world for the past 35 years finishing his career as President of the Americas for a UK-based public company in the semiconductor electronics industry. Most recently, Mark launched a flash memory controller subsidiary and built that business from a zero-revenue base to an eight-figure highly profitable business which was divested in 2021. Mary is a teacher and lifelong artist. She has been working full-time in her studio as a professional clay sculptor for the past 5 years. Both Mark and Mary are experienced home renovators, and they look forward to bringing their knowledge and passion to serve not only people in their time of need but also their committed Paul Davis employee team.
Family
