United Water was founded in 2008, which was one of the worst hurricane seasons in Florida history. The owners, Lajos Nagy and Endre Banfi, were both from Hungary but didn’t meet until they were in the U.S. Both worked in home services and had some exposure to restoration. Together they decided to start their own journey in the business and established UWRG. They filled one van with equipment and started knocking on doors, asking for the opportunity to serve. Within four years, they built up to 15 offices across Florida. In 2010, they brought on Zoltan Kurucz as a managing partner to help round out the locations in the southern division. In 2015, they began franchising the concepts.
