The UK’s most trusted drainage and plumbing company has appointed Rick Howcroft as Drain Doctor’s new Managing Director.
In a recent press release, the plumbing franchise shared its exciting announcement: Rick will be taking over management of Drain Doctor’s 65-location nationwide network, covering England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland. Describing Rick’s plans as Managing Director, Drain Doctor said, “[He] is determined to build on the company's first-class service to commercial and domestic customers across the United Kingdom while driving the brand to the ‘next level’.”

Drain Doctor explained, “Rick joins Drain Doctor from Dream Doors, the UK's number one kitchen makeover company, where he implemented strategic policies critical to their success during his tenure. He began as a Regional Business Development Manager before progressing up the ranks into a Regional Director role.”
Rick also added his own thoughts on the news, saying, “I am excited to have the opportunity to work with the progressive and hard-working team at Drain Doctor, and we will continue to provide an unrivalled first-class service to all our customers across the UK.
