Prevention Tips
- If your drains block repeatedly in the same spot, it's usually a structural problem - relining is the permanent fix
- Get a CCTV inspection every 5 years if your home has clay or terracotta pipes (pre-1980s) - catch cracks before they collapse
- Be cautious planting trees near sewer lines - root barriers can protect existing pipes
- After drain clearing, ask for the CCTV footage - it shows the pipe condition and whether relining is worth considering
Common Questions
Pipe Relining in Woollahra - FAQ
Pipe relining creates a new pipe inside your existing pipe - without digging. We insert a resin-coated liner, inflate it against the pipe walls, and cure it in place. The result is essentially a brand new pipe with a 50-year design life, and your garden stays intact.
Usually by a wide margin. A traditional excavation and replacement means ripping up driveways, gardens, tiled floors, or retaining walls - plus the cost of putting it all back. Relining skips most of that, so the total bill for you is almost always significantly lower. We'll quote both options after the CCTV inspection so you can compare for your specific job.
Most residential relining jobs are completed in a single day. The liner cures in 2-4 hours, and your drains are back in service the same day. No weeks of open trenches in your yard.
Better in some ways. The relined pipe is seamless (no joints for roots to infiltrate), corrosion-resistant, and smoother than the original - so it actually flows better. Plus a design life of 50 years or more, typically backed by a 10 to 25 year manufacturer warranty.
Most can. We need the pipe to hold its basic shape - completely collapsed pipes can't be relined and need excavation. That's why we always start with a CCTV inspection to assess whether relining is suitable.
Pipe relining cost depends on pipe diameter, access, the length of damaged pipe, and what the CCTV inspection reveals. Every job is quoted after inspection — we'll show you the camera footage and explain exactly what's needed before you commit. Relining is almost always cheaper than excavation when you factor in the cost of digging up driveways, gardens, or flooring.
For practical purposes, yes. The CIPP (cured-in-place pipe) liner used in pipe relining has a design life of 50+ years. It's made from epoxy-saturated fibreglass or felt liner that cures into a hard, seamless tube inside your existing pipe — there are no joints for roots to re-enter and nothing to corrode. The finished liner is actually stronger than PVC and resists the ground movement that damages older clay and terracotta pipes. Most relining manufacturers back their product with a 25-50 year product warranty. What we can't guarantee is the sections of pipe beyond the reline — if you have a failing pipe in multiple locations, we'll identify all of them on CCTV before quoting so you know exactly what you're getting.
