Founded in 2006 by Gary Lyons and Matthew Lyons (father & son), Disaster Blaster came out of their desire to address issues they saw within the mitigation and restoration industry.

At that time, Gary and Matthew both had more than a decade of experience within the restoration industry, and saw many areas for improvement. From their desire to improve the industry as a whole, they formed Disaster Blaster, developed an extensive service catalogue to address the needs their customers had, and overhauled the marketing and business approach to be property owner-focused

This lead to an organization that now offers 4 times the number of services other companies within the industry commonly offer, and a personal touch throughout the process to ensure customer satisfaction. After operating their successful Disaster Blaster business for many years, Gary and Matthew decided to franchise the business in 2022, allowing them to share their unique business model with Disaster Blaster franchisees across the country. Gary and Matthew are both still very active within Disaster Blaster, providing marketing and operational support, sharing their extensive expertise, and assisting their franchise system wherever and whenever they’re needed.
