Major award for million-a-year drains expert

A drains expert who put away his tools as an experiment and decided to manage his business instead has more than doubled his turnover to £1 million a year. His spectacular success has won Drain Doctor Oxford owners Jon Parker and his wife Lisa a Great British Franchisee Award. That’s not just good news for Jon and Lisa, who set up their business 11 years ago, but for their employees who include both their daughters and two of their nephews.
