Say Goodbye to Dug-Up Yards & Costly Repairs
What Is Pipe Relining?
Pipe relining is a cutting-edge, trenchless technology that repairs damaged pipes without digging them up. By reinforcing the inside of your existing pipes with a durable epoxy resin liner, we create a “pipe within a pipe” that’s tough, watertight, and built to last.
Signs You May Need Pipe Relining:
-
- Overflowing drains
- Low water pressure
- Gurgling sounds
- Unpleasant smells
- Receding or overflowing toilets
We’ve simplified the process so you know exactly what to expect
How Does Pipe Relining Work?
Inspection & Diagnosis
Using advanced CCTV drain cameras, we’ll locate and assess the damage inside your pipes.
High-Pressure Cleaning
We’ll remove debris, tree roots, and blockages using powerful water jetting to ensure a clean surface for relining.
Pipe Relining
A flexible, resin-soaked liner is inserted into the damaged pipe. Using compressed air, it’s expanded to fit perfectly, curing into a strong, seamless pipe within 24 hours.
Final Inspection
Once cured, we recheck your pipes with our cameras to ensure the job’s done right and provide you with peace of mind.

CCTV Diagnosis Before Repair
No pipe relining job should begin without a CCTV inspection first. Before recommending relining, our licensed plumbers insert a waterproof camera into the pipe and inspect the interior in real time. This confirms the extent and type of damage — root intrusion, a single crack, joint separation, or a collapsed section — and determines if relining is the right approach for your specific situation.
Not every damaged pipe can be relined. If a section has collapsed completely or the pipe diameter is too small to accept a liner, excavation and replacement may be necessary for that section. We tell you honestly after reviewing the footage. We do not recommend relining where it is not the right answer for your property. All findings are explained clearly at your home before any work is committed.

Tree Roots, Cracks and Collapsed Pipe Sections
The three most common reasons for pipe relining in Shoalhaven homes are tree root intrusion, cracked pipe walls, and collapsed or displaced joints. All three create ongoing drainage problems that clearing alone cannot resolve.
Tree root intrusion is particularly common across older Shoalhaven properties with large established trees. Roots enter through joint gaps and grow progressively inside the pipe, restricting flow and eventually cracking the pipe wall. Clearing removes the root mass temporarily — but without relining or sealing the entry points, roots return within months.
Cracked pipe walls occur in older clay and earthenware pipes that become brittle over time. Ground movement, soil pressure, and seasonal changes all contribute. A crack that allows water to escape will also allow root entry, accelerating further deterioration.
Displaced or collapsed pipe joints happen when the ground settles or shifts around the pipe, causing sections to move out of alignment. This creates a step or low point inside the pipe where debris accumulates and blockages form. Our blocked drains service handles the clearing side of these issues. Pipe relining addresses the structural cause.
No-Dig Pipe Repair Process
The pipe relining process our licensed plumbers follow across the Shoalhaven involves these key stages:
CCTV inspection. We camera the full pipe run, note the location and type of damage, and confirm relining is viable. You review the footage before we proceed.
Pipe clearing. If there is debris, root mass, or mineral buildup inside the pipe, we clear it first. The interior must be clean for the liner to bond correctly to the pipe wall.
Liner preparation. A flexible liner saturated with UV-cured or heat-cured resin is prepared to the correct length and diameter for your pipe. The liner is sized precisely to the damaged section.
Liner insertion. The liner is pulled or inverted into position inside the existing pipe, covering the full extent of the damage.
Curing. The resin is cured in place, hardening to form a smooth, seamless, root-resistant lining inside the original pipe.
Post-relining inspection. We run the camera through again to confirm the liner has bonded correctly and the pipe interior is clear and structurally sound.
The result is a pipe within a pipe — structurally restored without excavation. For emergency drain situations, our emergency plumbing team can help with interim management.
Pipe Relining Cost Factors
Pipe relining is priced based on the specific conditions of each job. We provide upfront solutions and pricing before we start — you know the cost before we begin any work. Key factors that affect the total include:
Pipe length — the total length of pipe to be relined determines the liner material required and the time involved in the installation.
Pipe diameter — larger diameter pipes require heavier liner materials and longer curing times.
Access and setup — properties with accessible inspection points are faster to set up. Older Shoalhaven properties without cleanout access require additional preparation time at your home.
Extent of pre-work — significant root mass or debris that needs clearing before relining adds time and handling.
Number of sections — some jobs require relining in isolated damaged sections rather than a full continuous run, which involves precise liner cutting and positioning.
A single pipe relining job on a standard residential property typically costs less than full excavation and pipe replacement, while offering comparable longevity and no disruption to landscaping or paving.

Frequently Asked Questions
How Long Does a Relined Pipe Last?
Pipe relining typically carries a 50-year manufacturer warranty on the liner material when installed correctly. Our workmanship is separately covered by our lifetime workmanship guarantee. A correctly installed liner is a permanent structural repair in most cases, not a temporary solution.
Can All Pipes Be Relined?
Most residential drain and sewer pipes between 50mm and 225mm in diameter can be relined. Pipes that have fully collapsed over a long section may require excavation of that specific section. A CCTV inspection confirms suitability before we commit to relining.
Will I Need to Dig Up My Garden or Driveway?
In most cases, no. Pipe relining restores the pipe from the inside using existing access points. Excavation is only required if a specific section has fully collapsed and cannot structurally accept a liner. We confirm this from the CCTV footage before recommending any excavation.
How Do I Know If My Pipes Need Relining?
The clearest signs are recurring blockages in the same drain line, slow drainage across multiple fixtures, or a CCTV inspection that confirms root intrusion, cracks, or displaced joints. If you are unsure, a CCTV check is the right starting point.
