Drain Doctor adds three new franchisees to its UK network

Shaun Bartlett, James Light and Will Melliard acquired their franchises in the first three months of this year and are now providing a 24/7 plumbing and drainage service to domestic and commercial customers in their territories.

Shaun launched Drain Doctor Cardiff in early January and has already surpassed his initial turnover target, while Will (pictured), who heads up Drain Doctor Horsham, has reported strong demand for his services.

James took over the reins of Drain Doctor Southampton on March 4, following two decades of running successful companies in the finance sector. 

Under his management, the franchise has invested in specialist equipment and moved to new premises.

The three new recruits means Drain Doctor now has 55 franchise locations in the UK.

Pierre Jeannes, managing director of Drain Doctor, says: “We’re delighted that Shaun, Will and James have joined our close network of Drain Doctor franchisees. 

“With their entrepreneurial flair, coupled with commitment and enthusiasm to make the business work, these three individuals exemplify the kind of franchise owner we look for across our industry and shows others the fantastic possibilities that exist in our growing network.”
