Pipe relining may repair suitable damaged drains from inside the existing pipe. Its suitability depends on the defect, pipe shape, access and the ability to prepare the line properly.
Checking suitability before choosing relining
Camera inspection helps identify the damaged section and whether a liner is a practical option. The pipe needs appropriate preparation before installation. A collapsed pipe, unsuitable alignment or other site constraints may require excavation or another repair method instead.
Problems we assess
- Assessment of cracked or root-affected drains
- Camera inspection to define the repair section
- Comparison of lining and excavation options
Access before the visit
Where practical, leave the affected fitting and nearby service openings accessible. If a cupboard, gate or plant area is locked, arrange for the responsible person to be available at the time of attendance.
Repair scope follows the defect
The location and extent of the damaged section help define the proposed repair. Ask how the camera findings relate to the section being lined and whether any defects elsewhere need a separate plan.
Discussing the next step
Share any existing drain footage or reports when booking an assessment. For Fairfield properties with limited access or shared drains, identify the relevant boundaries and arrange any necessary owner or building-manager access.
