Taylor & Brown Drain Rods Set, Drainage Rods for Outside Drain Flexible, 12 Pcs / 9.2M Drain Unblocker with Heavy Duty Rubber Plunger & Double Worm Screw, Drainage Rods for Drain Cleaning

I discovered quite by accident that my drain outside was blocked. I was putting some cement around the drain and removed the iron lid so as not to cement it shut! I needed some Drain Rods pronto, so ordered these with next day delivery! They are nice and flexible so will bend around corners if needed. The brass/metal fittings are strong and attach easily together. The two attachments easily unclogged my drain. £20 well spent! No idea how much Dyno-Rod would cost, but a lot more than that I suspect!

I had a few snap where they screw into the next rod, so not the best quality. But, I’ve successfully used to unblock the poorly built drain in my partner’s new-build home, so I’ve already got my money’s worth! I’m assuming every time I use a few will snap tbh, so I might need another set soon. Still cheaper than calling in the professionals.

Did the job

Cleared our drains that were very blocked

Used once and two snapped

Cheap and cheerful, perfect for a small diy job. Worked well for me but can’t see plumbers buying them.

They worked like a dream. Good value for money

Did the job, just a little too flexible so bends so need to be careful
