What makes the method different
Pipe repair without tearing up your place
A cured-in-place liner rebuilds a damaged pipe from within the existing line.
Replacing a failed sewer line means locating it, trenching down to it, breaking out whatever sits on top, laying new pipe, backfilling and making the surface good again. A fair share of that bill is concreting, paving and landscaping, charged after the plumbing is finished.
Relining skips the trench when the existing pipe can support a liner. We reach the damaged run through an access point that is already there, clean it out, then cure a liner hard against the old wall. A collapsed section is a different job, and the camera tells us which situation you have before a repair is chosen.

Focused on drainage
Services for the line that needs fixing
From an initial camera inspection to a fully scoped reline, choose the service that fits the pipe and the property.
Drain relining
Drain relining that fixes recurring blockages at the cause, not just clears them for a few months.
Stormwater pipe relining
Stormwater pipe relining for soakwells, driveways and garden drainage, without digging any of it up.
UV cured pipe relining
A resin liner cured in place with UV light, one of the methods we choose between on the right job.
CCTV drain inspection
A camera run through your pipe first, so any repair is scoped on what we actually find.
Residential pipe relining
No-dig sewer repair for Perth homes and units that leaves the driveway and garden untouched.
Strata pipe relining
Shared drain repairs scoped for committee sign-off, with minimal disruption to residents.
Commercial pipe relining
Large-diameter commercial pipe relining scheduled around trading hours, not against them.
We work across metro Perth, from Joondalup north to Fremantle west and Rockingham and Mandurah south. Older suburbs often have vitrified clay with open joints that roots can enter.
The method in brief
A repair built inside the existing pipe
Relining can leave driveways and gardens intact when an existing access point reaches a pipe that still has enough structure to carry a liner.
- 01Camera inspection
- 02Clean and prepare
- 03Line and cure
A clear sequence
See the pipe. Then decide the repair.
An inspection gives the crew the damage location and the length of pipe that needs attention.
The camera finds where the damage starts and how far it runs. Jetting strips roots and scale back to the pipe wall. A resin-saturated liner is then drawn through, pressed out and cured. It becomes a continuous repaired section with no open joints for roots to find.
- 1Inspect the pipe and identify the failure.
- 2Clean the section back to the pipe wall.
- 3Install and cure the liner to the written scope.

Questions we get asked first
Can a fully collapsed pipe be relined?
No, and that is the honest limit of the method. A liner needs a host pipe to cure against, so a section that has caved in has nothing left to hold its shape and has to be dug up and replaced. A camera run tells us which situation you have before anyone commits to an approach. Where only a short length has failed with sound pipe either side, a point repair usually covers it without relining the whole line.
Will you dig up my driveway?
Relining is carried out through an access point that is already on the property, so in most cases nothing above the pipe is touched. Where a run genuinely has no usable access, we say so at the inspection rather than once the work has started and the concrete is already out.
How is relining different from having the drain jetted?
Jetting clears what is inside the pipe. Relining repairs the pipe itself. When a drain blocks again within months of a clear, the pipe is usually the reason, and clearing it a second time changes nothing about that. See blocked drains in Perth for how the two are told apart.
Do you reline water supply pipes?
No. We work on sewer, stormwater and drain lines, which are gravity systems. Pressurised water supply is a different job under different standards, and it is not what this business does.
How much of the pipe has to be relined?
Only the part that has failed, plus enough sound pipe either side for the liner to seal against. The camera measures how far the damage sits from the access point and how far it runs, and the scope is written from those two distances. A line with three separate failures spread along it is a different job to one bad joint, even when the total damaged length is the same.
Does relining make the pipe narrower?
The liner adds wall thickness, so the internal diameter does drop. In practice flow usually improves, because the losses in an old line come from scale, root intrusion and offset joints rather than from raw diameter, and a cured liner replaces all three with a smooth continuous surface. Where a run is already near the limit of its capacity, that trade-off is one of the things the inspection is checking for.
How long is the drainage out of action?
Drainage cannot be used while the liner is in and curing, so the real question is how long that takes on your job rather than how long the crew is on site. It depends on the length of the run and the curing method chosen. The timing goes to you in writing with the scope, once the inspection has shown what the job actually is.
Will my insurer pay for it?
That depends on the policy and on the cause, and nobody can answer it honestly without both. Sudden damage from an identifiable event is treated very differently to gradual deterioration or root intrusion, which many policies exclude outright. What we can give you is the camera footage and a written scope stating what was found and where, which is the evidence an insurer asks for either way. Take it to them before you assume the answer, and see the FAQs for the rest.
