Fantastic company

The man that came was very polite and helpful with hints and tips of what to do that will hopefully not happen again. He even cleaned up after himself even though the drain that was blocked was outside. Becky was very polite and friendly on the phone. Thank you Mersey Rod, you do a wonderful job.

Would recommend Mersey Rod in a heartbeat

During building work, we found that drain in our garden was blocked which was impacting our downstairs toilet. I was recommended Mersey Rod by a neighbour and I’m so glad I followed their advice. I filled in the online form at approx 6.30am and by 8.30am they had contacted me to organise someone to come the same day. The engineer arrived around 11am and sorted the problem really quickly, and even investigated further for us to see if there were going to be any recurring issues. They were respectful of our property and the ongoing building work, offered advice going forward and resolved our issue effectively. Really happy and would recommend them in a heartbeat!

Can't fault your service in any way

Can't fault your service in any way. The engineer communicated perfectly prior to arriving and carried out the job quickly and efficiently. He also gave some really helpful aftercare advice.

Quick and efficient.

On contacting Mersey Rod I was given a ( same day) estimated time of arrival and a price . The engineer arrived well within the E.T.A and unblocked the drain quickly and effectively and with no mess, at the agreed price. I would recommend this company to anyone with a blocked drain!

Top Service from Mersey Rod

In response to our drain blockage, Mersey Rod agreed a time and date we requested and attended promptly. After our guidance, the engineer fully understood the situation, resolved the blockage and cleaned up. Further root work was agreed.

Drain inspection

Mersey Rod came out to my home for a drain inspection. The guys were on time, showed me everything they could see, and provided a reasonable quote for the repairs needed. I will definitely be using them again when I’m ready for the work to be done.
