Meet the Rooties!I hope you're enjoying our web site. This page is just to let you know who's who at Roots |
Having worked for a big company, I quickly decided that I much preferred the small business world that my father worked in. In small business you get do each job properly. I'm no good at plumbing, but I've always enjoyed a challenge. Growing a small business can be really challenging, and making each room perfect for each customer also gives you something to be proud of. So, with the help of my parents we decided to expand the plumbing business to include kitchens and bedrooms. The expansion got a little big to be called "Medway Plumbing and Heating" so the expansion got its own name, Roots Kitchens Bedrooms Bathrooms.
Kathy is in charge of accounts and tries to make sure that I and my brother David do not go "too" mad on buying new displays, although it doesn't always work! Having a sister in Australia means that Mum and Dad like to visit her once a year. So that they don't feel out of touch with the business, I have given Mum access information to enable her to pay all the bills from Australia. Luckily, she still loves me and everyone gets paid on time.
We've got a bit of a tradition going at the Rooties. Every customer we serve should be so pleased with our work that they tell all of their friends. Graham started this tradition. He's still running the original plumbing company (running over 30 years) which he has never advertised. All of his work has come from recommendation. Maybe its because he spends a lot of time training, so he has the skills and knowledge to do the best possible job, right first time. He's probably the reason I (Steve Root) love learning so much. What else are Dads for?
Rhonda is Steves wife and has to put up with Steve wanting to stop in every Kitchen shop when we go on holiday. Nicola runs around the showroom and reminds us to make sure every design is safe as well as fun.
Dave is the youngest Rootie and after many years travelling the world came back to look after all of our bathroom related products. While travelling Dave qualified as a snowboard instructor and taught in America. That training helps him teach the rest of us more about bathrooms.
Margaret (the designer) Waghorn
Margaret joined us in 2007. As a working mum she uses her honours degree in interior design to make rooms as good looking as they are practical.

Sharon, also known as sister rootie, used to run our office. Having met the man of her dreams (Todd, the Australian Carpenter) she's now married an emigrated to a sunnier place. Something tells me there may be an Australian branch of Roots in the not to distant future .. .. ..
Leslie (Granddad) Root:Granddad Root is responsible for the name, although he'd blame his father. He died in 1998, which is a shame because he'd have loved surfing the Internet and driving our delivery van. He spent the last few years of his life writing his life story. I'm glad he did, you're welcome to read it (Les Root's Life Story). He also enjoyed the occasional political debate, and was a "union man" through and through. |
