The Drain Doctor story begins in the United States in 1970 when our sister company ‘Mr. Rooter’ opened for business, quickly establishing a reputation for performing quality work at honest prices.
Using the same proven business model and franchise systems developed in the US, Drain Doctor launched here in the UK back in 1994. Since then, it has become the nation’s largest full-service emergency plumbing and drainage company, working in both the commercial and domestic sectors.
