Zoom Drain of North Houston is proudly owned and operated by Raymond Ledesma, a Texas native who has a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration from Franklin University.
Having lived throughout much of the midwest during his career, Ledesma spent nearly two decades working as a Warehouse and Distribution Manager, most recently in the medical industry. Although he’s lived in several locations, a recent move to Houston reminded Ledesma that the Lonestar State truly feels like home, thanks to the city’s atmosphere and people.
“There’s so much to do in Houston, it’s a big city offering a wealth of attractions, from NASA’s Space Center to the professional sports teams to my favorite, the livestock show and rodeo,” admitted Ledesma. “Houston also has such a communal feeling! The people here are diverse and welcoming, which is why this area continues to attract people from all around the globe.”
After years of devoting time, energy and passion into helping other businesses grow, Ledesma sought out entrepreneurship, wanting to take those characteristics and put them into something with his name on it. Almost immediately, he fell in love with Zoom Drain’s franchise model, one that offered good ideas, great support and a well-thought out pathway to success – and Ledesma knew his management experience, paired with his education, would be beneficial.
But it’s about more than growing a business for Ledesma, it’s also about assisting the residents and businesses in his community – the same way the community helped him back in 2017.
“We’d just moved here when Hurricane Harvey hit, flooding our new home,” Ledesma recalled. “It should have been devastating but, instead, it made us aware of how blessed we are, as more people helped us rebuild than we could have imagined – our church community, our work family, our actual family, they all helped us through what should’ve been a terrible situation. We want to be that same support now, to be rooted in this community, building a culture and a team that makes a difference, not just with providing trusted drain and sewer service but so much more.”
We serve communities around northern Houston: Spring, Kingwood, Humble, Conroe, The Woodlands, Atascocita and the surrounding areas.
