Wherever you're at right now, we've got you.

I've been told to do it

A plumber said I need relining and I'd like to understand what that actually means.

I'd Like A Second Opinion

I've been quoted for excavation and something about it doesn't sit right. There must be another way.

I'm Just Doing Some Research

You heard about no-dig pipe repair and want to know if it's actually as good as it sounds

So What Is Drain Relining?

The short version: a new pipe, inside your old one.

Drain relining works by inserting a flexible resin-coated liner into your existing damaged pipe. Once it’s in position, it’s inflated and cured, hardening into a smooth, seamless new pipe inside the old one. The whole thing happens through an access point. No trenches, no excavation, no mess. And the new liner typically outlasts the original pipe by decades.

CCTV Camera Inspection

We send a camera through first to assess the damage, confirm the pipe dimensions, and check that relining is the right call. You see exactly what we see.

2

High-Pressure Clean

The pipe is jet blasted clean before the liner goes in, so the resin bonds to a clean surface and the seal is solid.

3

Liner Insertion

The resin-infused liner is fed into the pipe through an access point. No digging. No disruption to your property.

4

Inflation and Curing

The liner is inflated to press against the pipe walls and left to cure. Depending on the method, this takes a few hours.

5

Final Camera Check

Camera goes back in to confirm the liner has set correctly and the pipe is sealed. You see the before and after. Then we're done.

Signs You May Need Drain Relining

Many drainage problems are caused by deteriorating or damaged underground pipes rather than simple surface blockages.

Some of the most common warning signs include:

  • Recurring Blocked Drains

If your drains repeatedly block despite previous clearing attempts, the underlying pipework may be cracked, misaligned, or damaged by tree roots.

  • Toilet Water Backing Up

Water backing up into toilets after flushing can indicate a serious obstruction or damaged sewer line.

  • Gurgling Sounds From Drains

If you hear unusual noises from sinks, basins, or toilets, trapped air inside the drainage system may suggest pipe damage or restricted flow.

  • Water or Sewage Near Overflow Areas

Water, toilet paper, or sewage appearing outside near drainage overflow points can indicate serious underground drainage issues.

  • Unusually Green or Wet Areas in the Yard

Sections of grass growing faster or appearing greener than the surrounding areas may suggest underground leaks from damaged sewer or stormwater pipes.

Professional drain inspections can help determine whether pipe relining is a suitable solution for the issue.

Benefits of Drain Relining vs Pipe Replacement

Drain relining offers several advantages compared to traditional pipe excavation and replacement methods.

  • Cleaner Repair Process

Pipe relining is generally a much cleaner repair solution because it avoids the need for extensive digging throughout the property.

  • Minimal Damage to Gardens & Landscaping

Traditional excavation can damage lawns, gardens, pathways, and outdoor areas. Drain relining significantly reduces disruption to landscaping and surrounding structures.

  • Reduced Structural Disruption

Drain relining can often repair damaged sections beneath homes or buildings without disturbing foundations, slabs, or structural areas.

  • Minimal Visible Impact

In many cases, homeowners would not even know repair work had been completed once the relining process is finished.

  • Smaller Access Points Required

Access requirements for drain relining are often minimal, allowing liners to be inserted and cured through small entry points rather than large excavations.

Long-Term Durability of Relined Pipes

Modern pipe relining materials are designed to provide long-term durability and reliable drainage performance.

In many situations, relined pipes can be stronger than some traditional replacement pipe materials due to the strength of the internal liner.

Unlike older drainage systems that contain multiple pipe joints, relined pipes form a continuous internal surface with no joints for tree roots to penetrate again.

This can help reduce the risk of future root intrusion and recurring blocked drain problems.

CCTV Drain Inspections & Drain Diagnostics

Before completing any relining work, Fix It Right Plumbing performs detailed drain inspections to accurately assess the condition of the pipework.

Using CCTV drain cameras, our plumbers can identify:

  • Cracked or collapsed pipes
  • Tree root intrusion
  • Pipe misalignment
  • Sewer damage
  • Recurring blockage locations
  • Internal pipe deterioration


Accurate diagnostics help determine whether drain relining is the most suitable long-term repair option.

Minimal Disruption Drain Repairs

Drain relining stands out for its ability to carry out repairs while causing minimal disruption to the surrounding property. 

Traditional pipe replacement often requires excavation through:

  • Gardens
  • Landscaping
  • Driveways
  • Concrete paths
  • Outdoor entertaining areas
  • Beneath homes or buildings


Drain relining allows many of these areas to remain untouched while restoring the internal condition of the drainage system.

This can save homeowners significant time, repair costs, and restoration work following plumbing repairs.
