    Blocked drain drama, all sorted!! I have used Megarod before, and once again, they were excellent. They were here promptly and sorted it with minimum fuss! Thank you to Tom for arranging everything and Daryl for sorting it out on the day!

    Really top quality service from Tom and Andy. We had a blocked toilet, they came out and sorted the issue the next day. Two weeks later the same toilet was blocked - they came out and found the issue was unrelated (which upon explanation made total sense). Yet as a goodwill gesture they didn’t charge us for the second visit. Very rare to get this level of service, highly recommend these guys.

    We have called Mega Rod twice to clear drains and for advice. Both times they have responded quickly and professionally and have been a pleasure to deal with. As well as solving a problem. No hesitation in recommending them for any drain issues and/or investigative work.

    Had a totally blocked drain and tried to clear it myself using drain rods. These came unscrewed in the drain leaving 10 metres of rods stuck somewhere in the drain.

    Within an hour of calling them their engineer arrived and was able to force the rods back up the drain to the access point and pull them out. All sorted within less than 30 minutes.

    Customer service was excellent from start to finish, knowledge and expertise of the engineer who came on site was first class.

    I would never use anyone else again (and certainly wont be using my own rods again).

    If you have a problem with your drains call these guys straight away, their service is first class, reliable and trustworthy and I cannot recommend them highly enough.

    We had a blocked toilet and, as it turned out, a blocked line. We called Mega-Rod and were given a clear quote of how much it would cost to fix. Since we called on a Saturday we were told it'd be more expensive to get it sorted on the day and were told if we can wait until Monday to do so to save the money. We couldn't, so Andy was sent over within a couple of hours.

    Andy was amazing - he got the job done quickly and efficiently. He went above and beyond - he explained exactly what the issue was, and gave us more information about our system and what to watch out for (we are first time home owners, so all the advice he gave us was priceless!).

    Hopefully we won't need Mega-Rod's drainage services again, but if we do, there's no other company we'd call!

    Thank you, Andy for the great job done!

    Great response and service. We had our drains blocked and was quite stuck. The team talked us through each stage and what can be done to prevent further issues.

    Excellent service and communication on my pre purchase survey in May 2022. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Mega-Rod!

    I find myself posting another very positive review for this company. I find the customer service absolutely impeccable with the owner of the company even arranging urgent visits to my house whilst he is on holiday. All of the staff with whom I've had contact have been highly knowledgeable, courteous and providers of solutions whereby my drainage can be more efficient and not cause continued problems.

    They also have all the kit so it's not just a man visiting with his rod but you have technology and power which combined with the friendliness makes for a very stressfree experience.

    I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this company to those looking for support and quick fix help.

    Mega-Rod responded to my issue in a prompt and professional manner. When the engineer attended my property he was friendly and talked me through what had been found and what works he was undertaking. The engineer resolved the issue in less than an hour but his process was thorough. The engineer took care in my possessions, returning all items as they were found. I would have no doubts in using this company going forward.

    Drain Repairs

    Common Causes of Drain Damage

    1. Pipe Corrosion or Wear: Over time, older pipes can crack, rust, or burst – especially if made from outdated materials.
    2. Tree Root Invasion: Tree roots can be a major cause of drain damage. As trees grow, their roots can penetrate and break apart drains, causing blockages and other issues. If you have trees or shrubs near your home, it’s important to inspect your drains for any signs of root invasion to avoid blockages or collapse.
    3. Improper Installation: Poorly installed or incorrectly fitted pipes can lead to drainage problems. This includes loose pipes that vibrate when the water is running and joints that are not properly sealed.
    4. Clogged Drains: Clogged drains can be caused by debris buildup over time, such as hair, food scraps and soap scum. Regular drain cleaning with a drain snake or auger can help prevent clogs from occurring in the first place.

    Types of Drain Repairs

    Clogged Drain Repairs

    We use drain snaking or high-pressure hydro jetting to safely remove stubborn clogs. If the damage is more severe, we may recommend replacing damaged sections of pipe.

    Leaky Pipe Repairs

    Leaks can be fixed with specialist sealants, epoxy putty, or by replacing compromised sections of pipe. We ensure connections are tightened and fully sealed to prevent future leaks.

    Burst Pipe Repairs

    In the event of a burst pipe, we quickly shut off the water supply and carry out an urgent repair or replacement to minimise damage and restore service.

    Our Professional Drain Repair Process

    1. CCTV Drain Survey – We inspect the inside of your pipes using camera technology to locate damage without digging.
    2. Diagnosis & Quote – We identify the problem and offer a transparent, no-obligation quote.
    3. Repair or Replacement – From patching to full drain relining or excavation, we choose the most effective and least disruptive option.
    4. Final Inspection – We recheck the system to confirm your drains are flowing freely and the issue is fully resolved.

    DIY Drain Repairs – What You Can (and Can’t) Do

    While boiling water, plungers, or shop-bought drain cleaners might help with very minor clogs, they’re rarely effective for long-term solutions. Attempting DIY repairs on cracked or corroded pipes can lead to bigger problems down the line. If in doubt, call a professional.

    Avoid temporary fixes that could cost more in the long run—let Mega-Rod do it right the first time.

    Drain Maintenance Tips

    • Book an annual CCTV inspection for peace of mind.
    • Regularly inspect for signs of damp, slow drainage or bad odours.
    • Clear visible debris from sinks, showers and drains.
    • Use drain strainers to catch hair and food particles.
    • Avoid pouring grease or fat down kitchen sinks.
