Help Ryan Recover Mobile Body & Paint, Asheville

I am Ryan the owner of Mobile Body and Paint at 562 Riverside Dr. Asheville 28801.

We lost everything, all of our paint, pearls, paint chips, tools, supplies and equipment and 15 vehicles. The area is contaminated from businesses up river, a hazmat suit is required to even go on our property.

We had a well established business that helped support the community, through low cost repairs, we had a many talented employees that I will continue to support as long as I can. We helped everybody we could to the best of our ability.

We all loved working on cars and especially loved our customers.

Unfortunately, we were under insured and had no warning like many others in the area that we were to loose it all.

We had prepped for 4 to 6 feet of floodwaters and got 25 feet.

As you can see our building, not only flooded, the building was completely submerged with 25 feet floodwaters, but also collapsed onto everything we had.

If anybody can help us, we are in a dire situation right now that will surely continue to grow. As is the rest of Asheville.

We are a small business that just lost everything, many of the programs support and family needs, which are the most important and should come first, but there is nothing for small businesses except loans, which would push us further into debt.

I am continuing to support our team of employees until they can get back on their feet.
