Plumbing & Drain Unblocking in South Wales
Blocked drain? Leaking pipe? Speak to Jonie at Rods Away.
Plumbing and drainage problems can quickly disrupt your day. Whether your toilet won’t clear, your outside drain is overflowing or a pipe has started leaking, Rods Away offers practical help for homes and businesses across South Wales.
Speak directly to Jonie, explain what’s happening and find out how we can help. We’ll discuss availability and explain the price before work begins, so you know what to expect.
Drain Unblocking That Gets Things Flowing Again
A slow-draining sink, unpleasant smell or rising toilet water can be the first sign of a blockage. When wastewater starts backing up, you need someone who can investigate the cause and choose the right way to clear it.
Rods Away clears blockages affecting:
- Outside drains and gullies — including overflowing drains and standing water.
- Toilets and waste pipes — where water rises, drains slowly or fails to clear.
- Kitchen sinks — affected by grease, food waste and other build-up.
- Bathroom sinks, baths and showers — blocked by hair, soap and everyday debris.
Depending on the problem, we can use drain rodding or high-pressure water jetting to remove the obstruction. For drains that repeatedly block, a CCTV inspection can help identify the underlying cause and guide the next step.
Not sure where the blockage is? Tell Jonie what you’ve noticed and whether more than one fixture is affected.
Plumbing Repairs for Your Home or Business
Not every plumbing problem starts with a flood. A dripping tap, leaking cistern or damp patch beneath a sink deserves attention too.
Rods Away helps with everyday plumbing repairs as well as urgent problems, including:
- Leaking and burst pipes.
- Toilets that won’t flush properly.
- Leaking cisterns and overflows.
- Tap repairs and replacements.
- Sink connections and waste-pipe leaks.
- Kitchen and bathroom plumbing repairs.
We’ll discuss the problem, assess what needs doing and explain the proposed repair. If additional parts or work are needed, we’ll agree the cost with you before proceeding.

Your Questions Answered
Do you clear both indoor and outdoor blockages?
Yes. We help with blocked toilets, sinks, baths and showers, as well as outside drains and gullies. The clearance method depends on where the blockage is and what is causing it.
Can you investigate a drain that keeps blocking?
Yes. Recurring blockages may need more than a straightforward clearance. We can discuss whether jetting or a CCTV inspection is appropriate to help identify the cause.
Can I find out the cost before work starts?
Yes. We explain the price and what it covers before starting. If we need to assess the problem before quoting for a repair, we’ll make that clear.
Do you handle smaller plumbing jobs?
Yes. You can contact Rods Away about dripping taps, toilet faults, leaking sink connections and other everyday plumbing repairs.
How soon can you attend?
Availability depends on your location, the time of your call and existing bookings. Call Jonie for the earliest available appointment.
