Pipe Relining

Pipe Relining has transformed the way drains are fixed and maintained.

Many people don’t want to think about the issues that are happening to their underground pipes. However, leaks, root development, corrosion, and the deterioration of pipes are all possible outcomes of this essential plumbing system’s operations.

Because of their age, homes in well-established suburbs are more likely to suffer from root ingress and corrosion. Older houses often included stormwater and sewers constructed of galvanised pipes, or Terracotta. In the course of time, these materials have been replaced by PVC which is a far superior product, however, many houses today still use these pipe products under the ground. Galvanised pipe tends to rust over time and terracotta pipes allow easy access for tree roots to invade your sewer and stormwater lines, which can cause blockages.

The past was when, when there was a breach, it was possible to completely remove the clogs or backups of sewage by replacing the damaged pipes. It is possible to save money by using our no-dig pipe relining services.

Sewer Surgeon is Sydney’s most reliable pipe relining company. We provide our customers solutions that are not just long-lasting, but also cost efficient.
The initial step of Pipe Relining is a high-speed drain cleaning. We utilise our industrial strength, jet blaster technology to do this. Pipes are cleaned prior to preparation for relining during this step of the procedure. It is not necessary to tear out any pipes that are in use. Instead, we can construct a seamless, sturdy pipe that is within the boundaries of the damaged pipe. This will save time and money. No digging or mess. All you need is fully functional pipes again.

The epoxy liner is a fluid which is placed within your pipes to safeguard them. When it is set and solidifies, the lining acts like a structurally sound, new pipe. The lining doesn’t depend on the integrity of the old pipe for support. The new pipe lining root intrusion, corrosion , or other problems that can affect your old terracotta and galvanised plumbing systems will be virtually impossible to penetrate.

Our trenchless plumbing solution is a tested and reliable solution to your plumbing needs. It can be a cost-effective method to save money on landscape restorations or broken concrete. You can renew, re-line and repair the condition of your pipes. There’s no need to be digging. Contact our Pipe Relining experts now!

Burst Pipe Repair

A burst pipe can be described as an indication of a split, rupture or crack in the gas or water distribution system. Sometimes, the burst pipe can be apparent, like a worn-out Flexi hose. Sometimes the leak is hidden behind the wall with copper lines, which can cause mould and damage. Sewer Surgeon will be your plumber in the event of an emergency ruptured pipe.

As a result of the possibility of significant property damage, it’s vital that bust pipes are fixed as soon as possible. Gas leaks, left untreated, can cause poisoning, fire and explosion.

While burst pipes can be difficult to spot, there are signs that could indicate leaks.

• Gas smell – if you have the distinct smell of gas in your house, please call Sewer Surgeon immediately. Gas leaks should be dealt with urgently and should not be handled lightly.
•  Mould – Mould spores can go undetected until it’s too late, spreading to various locations and causing some serious damage. If you detect mould in your house, it could be due to a burst pipe behind the wall.
• Wall Stains – water from a burst pipe will leave discoloration on your walls and ceilings. This is a tell tale sign of a water leak and should be investigated immediately
• Increased water bill – leaking pipes can significantly increase the cost of your water bill. If something does not look right, be sure to check with a leak detection professional.
• Lower water pressure – pinhole leaks and fractured pipes can reduce the water pressure in your home. If your water pressure drops suddenly, it could mean a pipe has burst and started to leak. It is best to call a specialist, like Sewer Surgeon, to investigate this.

This proactive step will save lives and minimise property damage.

Water Filtration Systems

You would be surprised by how difficult it could be to choose the best water filter that is suitable for your home.

There are many options for filters. Each is more effective at eliminating specific pollutants than the other. Certain systems are simple to maintain and use, while others provide more effective features. It is important to understand what to be looking for when selecting the most appropriate system for your house, however don’t fret, Sewer Surgeon has you covered.

The most basic and simple water filtration system would use a carbon block filter, commonly used in water pitchers and faucet filters. This configuration provides basic water filtration and is perfect for an uni-stage water system.

The system is able to be upgraded by a 2-stage filter system. It consists of both a sediment filter AND carbon-block filters. This will increase system effectiveness and extend its life. The most ideal multi-stage water filtration system must consist of 3 filter stages to ensure you’re drinking only pure water.

Roof Leaks and Gutter Cleans

The most vital components of your roof are your gutters and downpipes. They offer style and function and also protect you from the harsh Sydney weather.

Despite their important role, downpipes/gutters are often the least-understood and neglected areas. They need to be cleaned and maintained regularly. Damage to gutters, blockages and negligence are the most common causes of leaks. To ensure the proper upkeep of your house, it is recommended to inspect your gutters, or schedule a gutter cleaning service scheduled at least once a year to examine for leaves, bugs, and other foreign objects. If you begin to notice any leaks from the roof, always check your downpipes and gutters before thinking about a roof restoration or full replacement of the roof.

While DIY gutter cleaning methods are effective, it’s not easy to fix the damage to your gutter or downspout. It’s difficult to repair damaged gutters or loose guttering or downpipes. Only a professional roofing contractor is equipped to effectively and safely do the task. We will also help you discover the most cost-effective solutions that will enable you to save money.
