    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.

    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.

    Manhole and Drain Inspections

    Manhole and drain inspections play a pivotal role in ensuring the smooth functioning of drainage systems. For Bath and Bristol residents seeking these services, Mega-Rod, a trusted local independent drainage company, offers comprehensive and specialised solutions.

    Understanding Manhole and Drain Inspections

    Manholes serve as access points to underground drainage networks, allowing inspection, maintenance, and cleaning of the system. These structures provide access to pipes and channels, enabling professionals to conduct thorough inspections. Drain inspections involve assessing the condition of pipes, identifying blockages, leaks, structural issues, or any other potential problems that could impede the flow of wastewater.

    Why Are Inspections Essential?

    Routine manhole and drain inspections are crucial for several reasons. Firstly, they help in the early detection of issues before they escalate into major problems, preventing potential structural damage or system failures. Secondly, inspections aid in maintaining optimal functionality, ensuring that drains function efficiently and prevent backups or overflows that could lead to property damage and health hazards. Lastly, regular inspections contribute to cost savings by addressing minor issues before they turn into costly repairs.
