Pipe relining in the Inner West, without digging

Cracked joints, root damage, a dropped section: we seal the pipe from the inside through the gully or an inspection opening, and leave the yard, the path and the garden where they are.

Roots in at a joint

We cut the roots out with the drain machine, jet the line clean and run the camera to the junction, so you see the joint they came in at. Reline that joint and they can’t get back in.

What relining is

Relining puts a new pipe inside the old one. A liner soaked in resin goes in through an opening, is pressed against the old pipe wall and cures hard, sealing cracks and the joints that roots came in through.

For one bad joint, a relining patch seals just that spot. For a length full of cracks and roots, a full liner seals it from one opening to the next. Either way, we film the line before we quote and again when we finish, so you see the result.

Where relining wins

  • Under a heritage garden, a paved courtyard or a concrete slab
  • Down the side of a terrace where there’s no room to dig
  • Under an extension, a deck or a driveway
  • Joints where roots keep coming back
  • A line that runs under next door’s yard

In a heritage conservation area, keeping the garden, the path and the front fence as they are matters, and relining does that.

Reline, or dig and repair?

Relining needs a pipe that’s still in its shape. Where a section has collapsed, we dig and replace that section only, and reline the rest if it needs it. The camera decides, and you see the same footage we do.

If the collapse is in your line under a public footpath or road, Sydney Water may repair it free once a licensed plumber shows it needs digging up. We tell you when that applies.

…Our plumber was able to quickly diagnose what he thought was the issue and then set about fixing it He explained his progress ,even taking the time to answer hubbys questions about tree roots invading the pipes…

From your call to the fix

  1. Ring, or send a photo

    Ring 1300 890 269 at any hour, or send the form with a photo of the gully or the overflow.

  2. Choose when

    Any day from tomorrow on, the quote visit is free: we come between 8 am and 3 pm and ring 30 minutes before we arrive. If it can’t wait, a visit today carries a call-out fee, and you hear the amount on the phone before anyone is sent.

  3. On the camera

    A licensed drainer clears the line and runs the camera down it with you watching, so you see what caused the blockage and where.

  4. A fixed price, then the fix

    You approve a fixed price before we touch the drain. Then we clear, jet, reline or repair it, test the line and leave the yard clean, and our labour on that work is guaranteed for life.

What sets the price

  • How many joints or metres need relining
  • A patch at one joint, or a full length
  • The pipe size, and any bends along the way
  • Access to an opening at each end
  • Whether the line needs clearing first

The price you approve before we start is the price you pay, unless you ask us to change the job.

Questions

Something else to ask? Ring 1300 890 269 or put it in the quote form.

Do you film the pipe after relining?

Yes. The camera goes through the new liner when it’s cured, so you see the joints sealed and the line clear.

Can roots get through a relined pipe?

Relining seals the joints roots come in through, from the inside, which is what stops them coming back.

Do you have to dig at all?

For most relining, no: we go in through the gully or an inspection opening. Where there isn’t one, we make one small opening, not a trench.

Is relining covered by your guarantee?

Our workmanship carries a lifetime guarantee on the labour. If our work fails, we come back and fix it.

Can you reline a pipe in a heritage conservation area?

Yes. Relining works from the inside, through the gully or an inspection opening, so nothing at the front of the house changes: the fence, the path, the tiles and the garden stay as they are. It suits the Inner West’s terraces, semis and Federation houses on narrow lots, where there’s no room to dig.

How do I know the relining worked?

You see it. The camera goes through the cured liner from one end to the other, and the joints that let the roots in show as smooth pipe wall.
