I called Roman Rod for some drainage issues I had at my property in Bath, and I’m really glad I did. He was super helpful from start to finish, giving me clear and honest pricing upfront. He took the time to explain everything in a way that made sense, answering all my questions without any pressure. It’s rare to find someone who’s both professional and down-to-earth like Sam. I’d definitely recommend him to anyone needing drainage services.

Sam was able to come out to unblock my drains the same morning. He quoted me a total price with VAT to complete the job with no extra fees.
He was incredibly helpful and efficient and sent me a video showing the unblocked drains as I was at work.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Roman Rod.

I called Roman Rod to clear a blockage between the bath and soil pipe. They attended the next day as agreed and cleared the blockage. Unfortunately in the process the old waste pipe that was blocked snapped off during clearance. Roman Rod looked to fix this issue straight away but a plumber was needed due to the old pipework and fitting.
The plumber was called straight away and attended the next day and replaced the broken pipe. During the whole process Roman Rod kept in touch with me to ensure the repair was completed satisfactory. There have been no issues since and the pipe remains clear. Would use Roman Rod again in the future.

Sam was brilliant - super efficient and attended the next day after making a call. Brilliant highly recommended.

Wow, phoned them to arrange an internal drain clearance. I queried their call out charge, got a mouthful of abuse and told to go somewhere else. Never had such abuse from a supplier. Oh dear.

Sam made several visits to my flat due to an issue that was in large part related to the setup of the flat's plumbing. He consistently went above and beyond, not only getting the drains running again effectively, but also providing great advice on the root causes of the blockage and keeping both myself and my landlord updated on the diagnosis throughout.

Sam was very prompt in contacting me after my first message about my mums suspected blockage at her property. Sam’s communication through the visit was first class and problem was quickly solved. My mum is elderly and I was put at ease knowing Sam had done a great job for a reasonable price.
A very quick response to our problem. Sam brought his knowledge and experience to our situation, determined to find a solution. Came equipped for every eventuality.
