Pipe Relining Canberra
No-dig, warranted-for-decades drain repair.
Pipe relining installs a new drain inside your existing one — no excavation, no tearing up landscaping, driveways or slabs. We deliver epoxy pipe relining across Canberra for residential, strata and commercial drains where excavation would be disruptive or expensive.
Relining suits cracked, offset, root-intruded and repeatedly blocking drains. The finished liner is stronger than the original pipe and typically warranted for 50 years.
What we include
CCTV pre-inspection
Full CCTV survey to confirm relining is the right fix and to measure the drain accurately.
Drain preparation
High-pressure jet cleaning and root cutting so the liner bonds cleanly to the host pipe.
Epoxy liner installation
Inversion or pull-in-place liner cured to form a seamless new pipe.
Junction reinstatement
Robotic cutters reopen branch junctions after curing.
Post-works CCTV
Camera verification and full-length recording delivered as part of the handover.
Warranty
50-year manufacturer warranty on the liner, plus our workmanship warranty.
Our process
Step 01
Assess
CCTV inspection confirms relining suits the drain — collapsed pipes may still need excavation.
Step 02
Prepare
Jet-clean, root-cut and dry the host pipe so the resin bonds properly.
Step 03
Reline
Resin-soaked liner installed and cured in place — usually one working day.
Step 04
Reinstate
Robotic cutters reopen branch lines and we verify with post-works CCTV.
Frequently asked questions
How does pipe relining compare in cost to excavation?+
Compared to full excavation of a driveway or established garden, pipe relining is usually 40–70% cheaper once reinstatement is factored in. On simple, shallow drains, excavation can still be cheaper.
How long does a relined pipe last?+
The epoxy liner carries a 50-year manufacturer warranty and is structurally rated as a standalone pipe — it does not rely on the host pipe for strength.
Can any drain be relined?+
Most cracked, offset and root-affected drains, yes. Fully collapsed pipes and drains with severe grade issues may still require excavation — we'll tell you honestly after the CCTV inspection.
Will you need to dig up my yard at all?+
Usually no digging is needed — we access the drain through existing inspection openings. Occasionally a small access pit is required and we agree it upfront.
How long does a pipe relining job take in Canberra?+
Most residential drains are relined in one working day. Larger commercial or civil scopes may run 2–3 days.
