William "Bubba" Ryan started Rytech in the early 1990s based on over 30 years' worth of experience in the restoration industry. The company was founded on the understanding that there was a better way of doing things, so he made significant changes to the service process and created new technology to help clients. In addition, Mr. Ryan developed a business model that allows for owner-empowered hands-on franchising. The result is Rytech Restoration, a revolutionary and industry-leading water and fire damage and mold remediation service provider that is part of a 60-billion-dollar-plus industry.
