Meet The Owner Of Zoom Drain North Houston
A Texas-Sized Passion For His Business And His Community
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.”

Our FAQs
-
To prevent clogs, avoid putting the following down your kitchen sink:
- Grease, oil, or fat (FOG).
- Coffee grounds.
- Eggshells or food scraps.
- Fibrous vegetables (like celery or corn husks).
- Pasta, rice, or other starchy foods.
-
- Regularly clean drains using a natural drain cleaner like baking soda and vinegar.

-
A cleanout is a pipe fitting that provides easy access for drain cleaning. If your plumbing system doesn't already have one, Zoom Drain can install a cleanout, which can save you time and money when clearing future blockages.
-
Sewer lining is a trenchless method of repairing damaged pipes by inserting a liner into the existing pipe. The liner hardens into a new pipe, sealing any cracks or leaks. It’s less invasive and often more cost-effective than traditional sewer replacement.
-
Signs that your sewer line may need repair or replacement include:
- Persistent slow drains or backups.
- Unpleasant odors coming from your drains.
- Wet spots or patches of lush greenery in your yard (indicating leaks).
- Gurgling sounds in your toilet or sinks. Zoom Drain provides comprehensive sewer repair, lining, and replacement services.
-
A malfunctioning sewage pump may show signs like:
- Sewage backup or slow draining.
- Foul odors or gurgling noises.
- Inconsistent or no pump operation. Regular inspections and maintenance can prevent costly failures.
-
Signs of sump pump issues include:
- Water pooling around the sump pump area.
- Strange noises when the pump operates.
- Pump not turning on or off properly.
- Water not being pumped out effectively. Zoom Drain can inspect and provide repair or replacement services.
-
Jetting from the roof vent involves sending high-pressure water through your drain lines starting from the roof vent, which clears out blockages from the top of the pipes. This technique can reach clogs that are deep within the system, particularly for stubborn, hard-to-reach blockages.
-
Hydrojetting is a technique where high-pressure water is used to clean drains. It’s especially effective for removing grease, debris, and tree roots. This method is ideal for tougher clogs that can't be easily cleared with standard tools.
-
Zoom Drain uses advanced tools like:
- Hydrojetting machines for powerful, high-pressure water cleaning.
- Sewer cameras to inspect and locate blockages deep within your pipes.
- Locators to precisely find and identify issues underground or behind walls.
- Traditional augers for mechanical drain clearing when necessary.
