Introduction to Pipe Relining

Drain relining modernises plumbing repair by rejuvenating damaged pipes in homes and businesses sans excavation.

Pipe relining, a tried-and-tested repair method, involves inserting a resin-impregnated liner into pipes, mending damage to create a seamless interior surface. Without replacing pipes, this technique saves considerable time and expense over traditional replacements.

Signs You May Need Pipe Relining

There are several warning signs that may indicate you need pipe relining services for your home or business:

Frequent Blockages or Slow Drains

If you’re dealing with recurrent blocked drains or slow-draining sinks, showers, and baths, it’s a clear sign of corrosion, cracks, or damage within your pipes disrupting water flow. Cracked and broken pipes susceptible to tree root invasion can be rapidly repaired with pipe relining, preventing further complications to your drainage system.

Sewer Backups

Sewage backing up into your sink, tub, or toilet signals that you might have to make sure sewer pipe relining is in order if your main drain pipe is clogged. This bacteria-laden backflow allows dangerous gases to enter the home and can cause awful odours. Pipe relining excels at eliminating blockages and sealing fractures to fix your pipes, barring additional sewage backflows.

Visible Pipe Damage

Visible pipe damage such as corrosion, holes, or leaks should be addressed promptly, and pipe relining can reinforce the affected areas and restore integrity. Our CCTV drain inspections pinpoint damaged pipe sections, ensuring accurate and precise relining repairs.

If you notice any of these signs and need professional assistance, contact Castle Hill Plumbing at 1300 349 338 to learn how we can help. Our expert team can help with fast and non-invasive pipe relining to restore functionality and prevent the need for traditional digging and replacement.

Benefits of Pipe Relining vs Replacement

The state-of-the-art trenchless pipe relining technology provides substantial cost savings, minimal disruption, and enhanced durability compared to complete replacement. Here are the key benefits of local pipe relining for your pipes or sewer lines:

Cost Savings of 60-80%

Pipe relining typically costs only 20-40% of the total expense of a full pipe replacement. There’s no need to dig up your landscape, as expensive excavation or rebuilding works are not required, making pipe relining even more cost-effective.

Much Less Property Disruption

The relining process can unfold smoothly without mess, minimising disruption to your yard, garden, driveway, or areas near the hot water system. This innovative solution delivers a non-intrusive process, eliminating the need for jackhammers or digging machinery. Access to the damaged area only requires small entry points rather than large trenches, optimising the access point strategy.

Longer Lasting Repairs

The high-density epoxy resins applied in pipe relining comprise exceptionally tough materials, engineered to be stronger than traditional pipe solutions and negate the necessity for excavation. Relined pipes are designed to last, boasting an expected functional lifespan exceeding 50 years.

Suitable For All Kinds of Pipes

Pipe relining is effective for all drain and sewer pipe types – concrete, PVC, clay, cast iron, asbestos cement, and more – irrespective of shape, depth, or complexity.

Pipe relining from Castle Hill Plumbing is the go-to for affordable, durable, and minimally invasive pipe restoration, bypassing the mess and expense of full replacement.

The Pipe Relining Process Explained

At Castle Hill Plumbing, we take a methodical approach to pipe relining in order to provide long-lasting repairs with minimal disruption to your property.

The pipe relining process involves the following key steps:

Step 1 - Diagnosis

Firstly, our licensed plumbers precisely assess the issue using a drain camera fitted with advanced CCTV technology. Advanced inspection techniques enable us to pinpoint every compromised section, assessing the suitability for relining pipe infrastructure.

Step 2 – Cleaning & Prep

We employ a powerful water jetter, utilising high-pressure water to clean the pipe before resin liner application. Any access points are also prepared at this stage.

Step 3 - Resin Installation

We insert the liner by saturating a felt liner with a specialised epoxy resin and using air pressure for placement. The liner bonds to the pipe walls, sealing into damaged sections, cracks and holes.

Step 4 - UV Curing

UV lights are used to cure the resin liner, solidifying its sturdiness for long-term use. This hardens the material, effectively sealing the damaged pipe. Pipe relining how it works: The outcome is a smooth, joint-free, and corrosion-resistant new lining inside the existing pipe.

The entire sewer relining process is often completed in a single day, minimising disturbance. And the resin liner is engineered to carry out its function, outlasting traditional piping by 50+ years.
