The youngest ever Drain Doctor Plumbing franchise owner has now launched his business, which provides an emergency plumbing and drainage repair service.

Yasser Yusean, 21, and his partner Samantha Brain have taken on the Leicester Drain Doctor Plumbing franchise.


Yusean, who is an experienced plumber and was recently employed as a technician by the Drain Doctor Plumbing franchise owner in Derby, said that the time was right for him to take on his own business.

“Working as a technician I already knew all the Drain Doctor systems,” he said. “When this franchise became available it made sense to take it on.

“Drain Doctor has a proven system. It offers a recession-proof opportunity where I can be an independent operator running my own business but with all the back up that comes with being part of a large national organisation. We aim to give businesses and householders in Leicester the dazzling level of service in plumbing and drainage, which Drain Doctor provides across the rest of the country.

“Our customers get fixed-price, no obligations quotes, a complete guarantee on all our work, and a full 24 hour per day, seven days per week service with no call out charges – so people pay the same price for work at any time of day or night. What’s more, we turn up at the agreed time.”


Yusean plans to begin trading by providing the plumbing service himself and then intends to expand by recruiting another technician before the end of his first year in business.

Yusean and his partner, Brain, have also refurbished their new premises in Burton-on-Trent where Brain will run the administration side of the business. Brain said: “When Yasser said he wanted to take on the Leicester Drain Doctor business I gave my full support. I thought that it was a perfect opportunity to run our own business and use all the skills I have to provide dazzling customer service.”
