Trenchless Solutions
Restore Your Pipes Without the Disruption of Excavation
Not every damaged pipe needs to be dug up and replaced. Modern pipe rehabilitation technology allows us to repair cracked, corroded, and root damaged pipes from the inside, restoring structural integrity and flow capacity without the cost, disruption, and mess of traditional excavation. Mr Drain Mr Sewer offers a full range of trenchless rehabilitation solutions.
Cured in place pipe (CIPP) lining is our primary rehabilitation method. A flexible liner saturated with structural resin is inserted into the damaged pipe, positioned precisely, and cured using hot water, steam, or UV light. The result is a seamless, jointless new pipe within the old one, resistant to root intrusion, corrosion, and chemical attack, with a design life of 50+ years.
For localised damage, such as a single crack, a joint failure, or a small section of root intrusion, we offer point repair solutions. These targeted patches address the specific defect without the cost of lining the entire pipe. Point repairs are ideal when most of the pipe is in good condition but one section needs attention.
Every rehabilitation project starts with a detailed CCTV assessment to determine the type and extent of damage, pipe material and diameter, access conditions, and the most appropriate repair method. We provide clear options with honest cost comparisons between rehabilitation and full replacement, helping you make the right decision for your situation and budget.
Why Choose Us
The Mr Drain Mr Sewer Difference
Trenchless Technology
Repair pipes from the inside without digging up gardens, driveways, or buildings.
50+ Year Design Life
CIPP liners create a new seamless pipe rated for over 50 years of service.
Point Repair Options
Fix specific defects without lining the entire pipe. Cost effective for localised damage.
Root Proof & Corrosion Proof
Relined pipes have no joints for roots to enter and are resistant to chemical corrosion.
Minimal Property Impact
No excavation means no damage to landscaping, paving, driveways, or building structures.
Pre & Post CCTV
Full camera surveys before and after rehabilitation to document the improvement.
Our Process
How It Works
CCTV Assessment
Detailed camera survey to map all damage, determine pipe specifications, and plan the rehabilitation approach.
Cleaning & Preparation
The pipe interior is cleaned with high pressure jetting to remove buildup, roots, and debris before lining.
Liner Installation
The resin saturated liner is inserted, positioned, inflated to fit the pipe precisely, and cured in place.
Reconnection & Verification
Lateral connections are reopened, and a final CCTV inspection verifies the liner is properly installed and sealed.
Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Pipe rehabilitation can address cracks, fractures, joint displacement, root intrusion, corrosion, and moderate structural deterioration. It's suitable for most pipe materials including clay, concrete, cast iron, and PVC. Severely collapsed or misaligned pipes may require traditional replacement instead.
A flexible felt or fiberglass liner is saturated with structural epoxy resin, inserted into the damaged pipe through an existing access point, and inflated to press against the pipe walls. The resin is then cured using heat or UV light, hardening into a rigid, seamless new pipe within the old one.
Yes. Cured in place pipe liners meet or exceed the structural requirements for new pipe installations. The liner is seamless (eliminating joint weaknesses), resistant to root intrusion and chemical attack, and has a certified design life of 50+ years.
A standard residential pipe relining typically takes 1 day for preparation and installation, plus curing time. The pipe is usually back in service within 24 hours. Point repairs can often be completed in a few hours. Larger commercial projects may take 2 to 5 days.
In most cases, yes, typically 30 to 50% less expensive than traditional excavation and replacement when you factor in the avoided costs of excavation, site restoration, landscaping repair, and driveway reconstruction. The savings are even greater for pipes located under buildings or paved areas.
