EXPERTS IN THE FIELD
No-Dig Pipe Relining Services in Brisbane
At S&J Plumbing and Gasfitting, we provide no-dig pipe relining solutions for damaged sewer and stormwater pipes across Brisbane. Our licensed plumbers use CCTV inspections and modern repair methods to restore damaged pipes with minimal disruption to your property.
Sewer Pipe Relining
A compromised sewer line can mean foul odours, slow drainage or worse working their way back into your home. The specialist sewer pipe relining Brisbane properties need creates a seamless, root-resistant inner lining that restores the pipe to like-new condition without excavating your yard.
Stormwater Pipe Relining
Blocked or damaged stormwater pipes are often buried deep and hard to access - making traditional digging both disruptive and expensive
Our trenchless approach seals cracks and intrusions from the inside, restoring proper flow without tearing up your property.
CCTV Drain Inspection
Before any relining job starts, we run a drain camera through the pipe to see exactly what we're dealing with.
We never guess based on the symptoms alone, with our sophisticated cameras confirming without a doubt whether relining is the right fix.
High-Pressure Drain Jetting
Where a pipe is carrying built-up grease, silt or debris, high-pressure jetting clears it out and cleans the pipe walls before the liner goes in, giving the resin the clean surface it needs to bond properly.
Tree Root Damage
Roots searching for moisture are one of the most common causes of pipe damage across Brisbane, forcing their way through the smallest crack or joint.
Relining seals the pipe against further root intrusion, addressing the entry point rather than just clearing what's already grown through.
Cracked Or Broken Pipes
A single fracture or a pipe cracked along its length can usually be relined rather than dug up and replaced, provided the surrounding pipe is still structurally sound.

The pipe is thoroughly cleaned, often using high-pressure jetting, to remove debris, roots and buildup so the new liner can bond properly to the pipe wall.Curing
The liner is left to cure in place, hardening into a smooth, durable, jointless lining that's often stronger than the original pipe material.What Is Pipe Relining?
Pipe relining is a trenchless repair method used to fix cracked, leaking or damaged pipes without extensive digging. It allows plumbers to repair suitable pipes from the inside rather than replacing the entire pipe.
The process involves inserting a resin-coated liner into the damaged pipe. The liner is expanded against the pipe walls and left to cure, creating a strong new lining inside the existing pipe.
This method can restore sewer and stormwater pipes while reducing the need to dig up driveways, gardens or yards.
Pipe Relining vs Pipe Replacement
Not all damaged pipes need to be dug up and replaced. Pipe relining can be a faster, less disruptive option for repairing cracked or leaking pipes, provided the existing pipe is in suitable condition.
Here are some key benefits of pipe relining:
Less digging: Repairs can often be completed without excavating your driveway, garden or yard.
Lower costs: Relining may cost less than replacement, especially when extensive excavation and restoration would be required.
Faster repairs: With less digging involved, relining can often be completed sooner than traditional pipe replacement.
Long-lasting results: A properly installed liner creates a durable inner surface that helps restore the pipe's function.
Some pipes may still need replacement if they have collapsed or suffered severe structural damage.
Not sure which option is right for your home? Our experienced residential plumbers can inspect your pipes and recommend a suitable repair.

Signs You May Need Pipe Relining
Damaged pipes can cause ongoing drainage problems around your home. Here are some common signs that your pipes may need repair:
Recurring blocked drains: Blocked drains keep coming back even after cleaning.
Tree root intrusion: Roots repeatedly grow into your sewer or stormwater pipes.
Cracked pipes: A CCTV drain inspection reveals cracks, fractures or other damage.
Damaged pipe joints: Loose or separated joints allow water to leak or roots to enter.
Slow drainage: Water takes longer than usual to drain from sinks, showers or toilets.
If you notice these signs, contact S&J Plumbing and Gasfitting. Our licensed plumbers can inspect your pipes and determine whether pipe relining is a suitable repair option.
What Affects Pipe Relining Cost In Brisbane?
The cost of pipe relining depends on the condition of your pipes and the work required. Key factors include:
Pipe length and size: Longer or wider pipes may require more materials and labour.
Pipe accessibility: Hard-to-reach pipes may need additional preparation.
Extent of damage: Cracks, root intrusion or severe damage can affect repair costs.
Type of repair: Relining a small section may cost less than repairing an entire pipe.
At S&J Plumbing and Gasfitting, we use CCTV drain inspections to assess the damage and recommend a suitable repair. We provide a fixed-price quote before the agreed work begins, so you know what to expect.
Older Brisbane Pipes & Trenchless Repair
Many older homes across Brisbane's Northside and Southside still have clay, earthenware or concrete sewer and stormwater pipes. Over time, these pipes can develop cracks, damaged joints and tree root intrusion.
Pipe relining can repair many of these problems without digging up your yard or driveway, provided the existing pipe is suitable.
Our plumbers use CCTV drain inspections to check older pipes, locate damage and determine whether trenchless repair is the right option for your property.
Pipe Relining FAQs
You'll generally need to avoid using toilets, showers, sinks or other fixtures connected to the affected drain while pipe relining is underway. Our plumbers will explain which fixtures need to stay off and how long they're likely to be unavailable before work begins.
Once the liner has fully cured and we've checked that the repaired pipe is ready, we'll let you know when you can use your plumbing normally again.
Not necessarily. In many cases, our plumbers can access the damaged pipe through an existing inspection point without removing your toilet.
However, if there isn't a suitable access point, temporarily removing the toilet may be necessary. We'll assess the available access before starting work and explain what's required.
Pipe relining uses specialised resin materials that cure inside the existing pipe to create a durable new lining. The type of resin used depends on the pipe's condition and the relining system selected for the repair.
These materials are handled and installed according to the manufacturer's safety requirements. Our plumbers can explain the materials used and any necessary precautions before work begins.
Pipe relining can be used on many of the pipe materials found around Brisbane homes, but we need to inspect the existing pipe first. Our CCTV inspection helps us identify the material, damage and remaining shape of the pipe before deciding if it can support a new liner.
Clay, earthenware and terracotta: Older pipes are good candidates for relining when they are cracked or if they have tree roots through the joints but still retain their basic shape.
PVC and uPVC: These pipes can also be relined, particularly when the problem involves cracked sections or failed or displaced joints. PVC has become the standard drainage material in newer Brisbane homes.
Cast iron: Relining can provide a new internal surface where an older cast-iron drain has deteriorated or corroded, provided enough of the original pipe remains to support the liner.
A pipe that has completely collapsed cannot simply be lined because there is no clear bore for the liner to travel through and form against. Relining also won't correct problems such as a badly misaligned section or incorrect pipe fall.
