Both new pipes and old pipes can be damaged from any number of things including tree roots, shifting in the soil as well as general weakening of joints in the pipes. Older terracotta pipes often also crack and disjoin as a result of shifting and movement in the earth around them. These broken pipes cause moisture and nutrients to leak into the surrounding soil, encouraging tree roots, plant roots and even grasses to grow into the pipeline. This eventually results in blocked drains, blocked toilets and blocking everything upstream! Whilst PVC pipes are generally less prone to cracking and deterioration, they do often weaken at the joints.

When a pipeline is damaged, the section of damaged pipe needs to be repaired. To repair damaged pipes, most plumbing companies offer a “dig up” – the process of digging up all the soil above the pipe till it is completely exposed, then replacing the damaged section of pipe with new PVC pipe. This can prove to be a daunting task as the pipeline often has a cement footpath, driveway or even garage or your house built above it, or best case scenario it’s located in the middle of your landscaped front or backyard! So the cost of blowing holes in the concrete foundation of your home or landscaping can be nightmarish. The dig up can easily become a huge job taking over several days, and requiring several trade experts, essentially all adding up to several thousands of dollars. On top of all this, if the newly installed PVC or UPVC pipe joins at some point to a terracotta pipe, then you still run the risk of a future leak at the new joint between the terracotta pipe and PVC pipe. Taking all this into consideration, if there is a technology that would mean there’s no dig up involved, then we’re all for it…This is where pipe relining technology comes into play.

Pipe relining technology or Trenchless pipe relining is used by our specialist plumbers to repair damaged water and sewer pipes without having to dig up the ground above the pipes to reach them. First, a state-of-the-art Rigid CCTV camera (a specialised drain camera with a robotic interface) is run through the pipes allowing our technician to inspect the interior of each branch of the pipeline for cracks or collapsed walls. Couple this with geosensor technology and we are able to find the exact location(s) where pipe repair is required. We then diagnose what the pipe damage is, and pinpoint exactly what caused the damage (to ensure we eradicate the problem). Once we are satisfied with the pipe damage diagnosis we use a jet blaster or hydro-jet cleaner to run high-pressure water flow of up to 5000 PSI down the pipe, targeted straight at the blocked area of the damaged pipe. This clears away soil, debris, plant and tree roots as well as any other incursion that has taken place.

Once the pipeline is clear of all debris, the pipe relining specialist inserts a textile liner coated with an adhesive epoxy resin into the faulty branch or channel of pipe. We then pump up the liner with pressurised air so that the epoxy resin is pushed securely against the inner lining of the old pipe. The correct amount of pressure impressing the liner against the walls of the cylinder pipe is maintained until the adhesive resin has set and cured. This creates an extremely robust, yet perfectly uniform protective seal across the length of the broken pipe.

Now our specialist pipe relining technician will re-inspect the area using the Rigid CCTV camera to ensure that the pipe relining is correctly in place and that all obstructions have been removed from the system. A further quality check is undertaken to ensure that the job is worthy of our 100 year backed warranty that covers both parts and warranty. Our sewer pipe relining and drain pipe relining are a 100% permanent solution.

We are a trusted pipe relining company, with a dedicated team that has specialised in providing a guaranteed pipe relining service. We stand behind our 100 year warranty as both our technicians are experienced trained specialists, and our equipment is the best of the best. We rely exclusively on Brawoliner, German-made pipe relining equipment and materials. Brawoliner is the world leader in pipe relining technology and we couple this with quality materials to ensure that our pipe relining is actually a permanent solution. When we say 100 years, we have the equipment, the product quality, personnel and quality assurance inspections to ensure we never touch that section of pipe ever again!

To top it off, Tycon Plumbing has built a reputation for its reliability. When we say we will be there, or the cost will be X amount of dollars, or give you a finish date… you can rest assured that’s exactly what is going to happen! We are honest and transparent in all our dealings, and make sure we leave every client extremely satisfied with our work.

Our specialist approach to pipe relining means that our team is efficient and effective. Hence we are able to save on extensive time wasted by other companies that you end up having to pay for!
