Understanding Pipe Relining and How it Works
Drain relining efficiently repairs damaged pipes without excavation, by inserting an epoxy resin liner into the existing pipe and curing it to create a new pipe within the old one.
Pipe relining offers significant advantages, including:
- Less disruptive - Relining repairs issues without digging up floors, driveways, or gardens.
- Cost-effective - Relining reduces labour and restoration costs.
- Durable - The relined pipe becomes more robust than when it was new.
- Versatile - Suitable for bends, junctions, and hard-to-reach areas.
The pipe lining process involves:
- A CCTV drain camera inspection to assess damage
- High pressure water jetting to clean pipe interior
- Resin liner inserted through access points and inflated
- Liner cured using a hot water system or UV light to harden.
- End connections reinstated
I would highly recommend pipe relining for it enables your plumber to repair your pipes without interrupting your business operations, providing an ideal solution to maintain productivity while fixing essential plumbing infrastructure.
The Benefits of Trenchless Pipe Relining for Businesses
Pipe relining presents many benefits, significantly reducing potential disruptions to Sydney businesses during essential plumbing repairs or maintenance:
Minimal Disruption
Pipe relining enables us to repair sewer pipe issues with minimal impact on corporate activities, as it requires no excavation. It is accessed through small entry points, negating the need to dig up floors, walls, driveways, or landscaped areas. We always ensure that our innovative pipe relining technology results in marginal disruption to productivity and foot traffic.
Cost Savings
Eliminating excavation, pipe relining lowers labour requirements and diminishes restoration costs compared to traditional pipe replacement. This durable technology safeguards against blocked sewers, delivering financial savings in the short and long term.
Enhanced Flow & Durability
The cured-in-place lining resolves inner plumbing pipe damage while providing a smooth protective barrier inside old pipe that prevents tree roots infiltration and improves flow rates. The restored pipe is structurally reinforced to be more durable than the original.

What to Expect During the Pipe Relining Process
When I called them to undertake relining pipe at your business, you can count on a smooth process with few interruptions. Here is an overview of what to expect:
- Initial CCTV Drain Inspection - We thoroughly inspect the pipe condition using a small camera. This pinpoints the damage and clarifies what was the underlying issue to inform the relining strategy.
- Pipe Preparation - We use high-pressure water jets to clean the pipe interior so liners can adhere correctly.
- Resin Lining Insertion - We insert flexible epoxy resin liners through access points like manholes. An inflatable bladder expands the liner to fit.
- Curing & Hardening - We use hot water or UV light to cure the resin liner. As it hardens, it forms a smooth, protective inner barrier.
- Reinstating Connections - Once cured, we reopen service connections and lateral junctions using remote-controlled equipment.
- Final CCTV Inspection - Our camera surveys the relined pipe to make sure our quality work meets rigorous standards.
Throughout the swift 1-2 day relining process, we operate discreetly to safeguard your drains from disruptions. Once we came out to perform our services, your operations could continue with relatively unimpeded functionality.

The Strength and Durability of Relined Pipes
Pipe relining can dramatically enhance the strength and durability of damaged pipes. Epoxy resin liners can also form a robust barrier that is scientifically engineered to outlast traditional pipe materials.
Our high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and polyurethane resin liners have a 50+ year design life. They are also markedly stronger than traditional cast iron and PVC pipe materials, as verified by physical testing.
The thermoset plastic chemistry endows the liners with exceptional tensile strength. The hardened plastics will not melt or soften, ensuring lasting durability. The resin’s dense cross-linked structure resists corrosion, abrasion, chemicals and tree root intrusion.
Our use of advanced CIPP (cured-in-place pipe) technology allows for the installation of seamless custom-fit liners, ideal for storm water pipes. Our exacting robotic tools distribute heat or UV light evenly for curing the resin, ideal for your water and sewer storm water pipes. This results in a smooth, joint-free lining that perfectly moulds to the shape of your pipe.
The relined sewer line, serviced with meticulous attention, can get repaired inside the old pipe with no joints or welds to weaken over time. Our non-invasive approaches prevent damage your pipe collapse while ensuring a reinforced, enduring integrity to your plumbing systems.

Relined pipes deliver enhanced flow efficiency, longevity, and resilience against blockages, providing peace of mind and a solid foundation for future plumbing requirements. This offers consistent security for your plumbing infrastructure and peace mind for our valued customers.
