Pipe Relining
Inner West
We reline cracked, root-damaged clay pipes under Inner West homes from the inside, so the floors, courtyards and heritage tiles above them stay where they are.

Vince was fantastic. Performed a sewer relining of my terracotta pipes. The price was competitive against other quotes and Vince used the camera to show me the work that was done in detail.

Local Pipe Relining Across the Inner West
Relining in the Inner West takes local know-how. Terraces share sewer lines with their neighbours, pipes run under extensions and tiled courtyards, and heritage streets make digging up a front yard the last thing anyone wants.
Our relining team has 63 years of combined experience and works out of Forest Lodge, within 6 km of every suburb below.

Pipe Relining for Inner West Homes
Most of what we reline in the Inner West is original clay or earthenware sewer pipe under Victorian and Federation terraces. The usual trouble spots are pipes under rear extensions and kitchens, lines shared between neighbouring terraces, and joints broken by roots from street trees.
We work from existing access points, camera the line before and after, and show you the result on screen. Learn more about pipe relining in Sydney

Is Relining Right for Your Pipe?
Relining suits most damaged clay pipe, but not all of it. The camera decides, and we'll tell you straight.
Good fit for relining
Cracked or fractured clay pipe · tree roots at the joints · displaced or leaking junctions · pipes under slabs, extensions or tiled courtyards · lines shared with next door
Not a fit, so we'll dig
Collapsed or flattened sections · severe sags where water pools · pipe that has lost its shape · damage on Sydney Water's side of the connection

How Pipe Relining Works
1
Camera the line
A CCTV inspection finds exactly where the pipe is cracked or root-damaged. You see it on screen.
2
Jet clean
High-pressure jetting cuts out roots and scale so the liner bonds to a clean pipe.
3
Reline
A resin-saturated liner goes in through the existing access point and is cured in place.
4
Camera again
We run the camera through the finished pipe so you can check the result yourself.

Frequently Asked Questions.
What is the typical cost of pipe relining in Inner West?
Pipe relining cost in Sydney runs from $400 to $1,200 per metre depending on pipe diameter, pipe length and access. The starting cost of a pipe relining project is around $2,400, with additional metres charged according to the work required. Every pipe relining project involves specialist equipment, CCTV inspections, drain cleaning, and resin preparation. We confirm a fixed price after the free CCTV inspection.
How Long Does Pipe Relining Last?
Professionally installed epoxy resin liners can last up to 50 years, creating a durable new pipe inside the existing one while reducing future leaks and root intrusions.
Is pipe relining effective?
Yes, when the pipe is suitable, and the relining process is carried out correctly. A UV-cured CIPP liner produces a durable pipe with approximately 50 years of design life, a smooth interior bore and resistance to future tree root intrusion. The CCTV pipe inspection beforehand is what determines suitability; pipe relining suitable candidates are pipes that retain enough structural form to support the liner.
Can you reline a pipe yourself?
No. Pipe relining requires specialist equipment: CCTV pipe inspection cameras, high-pressure cleaning rigs, calibrated liner preparation and UV curing trains. There is no DIY path to trenchless pipe relining for residential or commercial properties.
What Types of Pipes Can Be Relined?
Pipe relining can repair many underground pipe materials, including clay and PVC sewer pipes. A CCTV inspection confirms whether your pipe is suitable.
