Mike Baddeley, Drain Doctor Birmingham, added:
“My parents and I are overwhelmed to win this award, particularly as this is only the second time we have won ‘Franchisee of the Year’ in 22 years of trading! Being a family business, it means so much to us to get the recognition for our achievements and is a huge endorsement for us both personally and professionally. We have grown the business year on year for the past four years, which was when Drain Doctor was acquired by Neighbourly, and we continue to have the motivation and guidance to expand even further. “Drain Doctor is not just about me – we have a fantastic team of office staff and technicians who are continually delivering a world class service to our customers and a fantastic supportive family, so without them, we would not be revelling in this success today. We will definitely be having a team celebration very soon! I would also like to thank Neighbourly, who has invested both time and money into the brand and provided me with the support and infrastructure needed to thrive.”
