Drain Doctor certificate

Walsall Drain Doctor Plumbing franchise owner, Richard Scandrett, was recently named national ‘Drainage Business of the Year 2018’ for the fifth time by The Best Of Walsall, a unique gathering hub for the community and great local businesses. 

Richard Scandrett, a nine year Drain Doctor Plumbing franchisee based in Burntwood, was one of the local Walsall businesses that won his category nationally for drainage and received over 100 positive reviews during the campaign to win the coveted accolade. 

The campaign comprised of local people showing their support for their favourite business by submitting a review of the service they had received. The Awards, which have been running for eight years, operate at a national and local level and Walsall people showed their love of local businesses by submitting more reviews than any other locals in the UK.

Alex Murray, Managing Director at The Best of Walsall comments: “We are incredibly proud of all our local businesses who qualified for the Walsall Business of the Year Awards, including Drain Doctor Plumbing who received fantastic reviews from local people using their services over the past year.  These reviews are a public acknowledgement of the contribution that Drain Doctor Plumbing has made to our local economy and Richard can be very proud of their achievements, particularly as this is the fifth time they have won the award.” 

Richard Scandrett, Drain Doctor Plumbing franchise owner, added: “We were really honoured to win this national award and to be considered after knowing all the other businesses in the Walsall area.  To be selected again means so much to me, both personally and as a business, and to know that our customers are writing some great testimonials provides me with even more motivation to grow the business further.  We would like to say a big thank you to all our customers and we look forward to working with them again in the future.”

Drain Doctor Plumbing is part of the Dwyer Group UK family of brands and is the leading combined commercial and domestic plumbing and drainage organisation with over 50 franchise locations across the UK.
