Our Team
Local leaders with backgrounds in business, finance and customer service, committed to building a restoration company Greenville can rely on.
David Johansen
Owner
David Johansen is the Founder and Owner of GreenShield Restoration, a company built on the belief that restoration is about more than repairing property—it’s about helping people navigate some of the most stressful and unexpected moments in their lives. With a strong commitment to quality workmanship, responsive service, and treating every customer with honesty and respect, David has made it his mission to build a restoration company that people can confidently turn to when they need help most.
David also founded Carolina’s Choice Carpet and Upholstery Cleaning in 2020 and since combined that company with GreenShield Restoration! He has years of experience serving homeowners and businesses and a deep understanding of the importance of maintaining clean, healthy, and well-cared-for properties. David brings an owner-driven approach to every job, with an emphasis on personal service, attention to detail, and doing the job right. His goal is simple: to build lasting relationships with customers and provide the kind of service he would expect for his own home or business.

During his career, Michael held positions of increasing responsibility with companies including Sebago and Cole Haan, where he managed millions of dollars in merchandise and became known for his attention to detail, ability to identify inefficiencies, and practical approach to solving complex problems.
Today, Michael brings decades of operational and financial experience to GreenShield Restoration.
