Nick joined the family business Drainmasters (East Anglia) in 1988 and worked through the organisation gaining a wealth of experience until taking over as Managing Director in 1998. The experience Nick gained within the industry resulted in him being invited to offer technical input in both 1st and 2nd editions of the Water Research Centre's Drain Repair Book.
The following years saw Nick develop Drainmasters (East Anglia) to become one of the leading regional drainage suppliers to Insurers and professional clients in the UK and ultimately lead to a key role in the formation and development of UKDN with the other founding partners.
