Roots is a family owned and run partnership.
Steve Root
Partner
Steve started the business is 1998 with the simple aim of doing the best work we could. Whilst he’s not known for his cookery skills he’s adept at problem solving and finding solutions
In 2018 Steve was one of four finalists in the industry’s Bathroom Designer of the Year competition.
David Root
Partner
Dave joined the business in 2003 designing bathrooms. As with all small business people you’ll find him working in all areas of the business. He’s a better cook than Steve.
Kathy & Graham Root
Partners, retiredish
Kathy started the business with Steve way back in 1998.
Graham was a self employed plumber since the 1970’s and we merged his business into Roots in the early 2000’s.
They’re retired but still lend a hand in the business. If you’ve ever admired the flowers and lawn outside our showroom that’s entirely their hard work and passion.

Les Root
Granddad
Grandad is responsible for the family name (though he’d blame his father!). He died in 1998, the year we started Roots, which is a shame because he would have loved surfing the web and driving our delivery vans. He spent the last few years of his life writing his life story and 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.
