The crew that relines Sydney’s worst drains without lifting the driveway

Pipe relining is not a sideline for us. We run dedicated CCTV, jetting and inversion rigs, so the survey is sharper, the resin is mixed to spec, and the junction is reinstated cleanly the first time; not dug up twice.

From a root-choked 100mm clay sewer under a heritage terrace in Paddington to a collapsed stormwater line beneath a Northern Beaches driveway, our licensed Sydney drainers have cured new structural pipe inside the old one without touching the garden above. Every job opens with recorded CCTV footage you keep, every liner is installed to AS/NZS 3500 and WSAA practice, and every quote compares relining against dig-and-replace before a single tool comes off the truck.

Hi there. What’s happening with your drains?

Relining is what we do best; but if you landed here for a different plumbing job, pick it below and we’ll tailor everything to you.

Before we arrive

4 signs your pipes need relining; and what to do now

Recurring blockages, gurgling drains and slow toilets are rarely bad luck; they are usually a failing pipe. Work through these signs, and if any sound familiar, book a CCTV survey so we can confirm the cause before it collapses.

Dig-up vs No-dig

What changes when you reline instead of excavate?

A traditional dig-and-replace tears open whatever sits above the pipe; a reline rebuilds it from the inside. Here is exactly what shifts when a licensed Sydney crew relines the drain rather than excavating it.

Before

Traditional dig-and-replace

  • The visible symptom has no confirmed source
  • A repair is chosen before the cause is checked
  • Access or price changes are left unexplained
  • The same symptom returns without further testing
  • There is no clear handover record

After

Fixed Today no-dig reline

  • The fault is checked with a suitable diagnostic method
  • The likely cause and repair options are explained
  • The scope and price are approved before paid work
  • The result is tested before handover
  • Relevant invoice, warranty and compliance records are supplied
What you’ll actually get

The exact thread you’ll see on relining day

No marketing fluff. Every relining customer gets a thread like this on the day; booked, drainer assigned, ETA, vehicle ID, CCTV footage shared, knock at the door. You always know what’s next.

  1. Booked

    A real drainer assigned, in writing.

    Your 2-hour window, drainer name, vehicle and the exact work (CCTV survey, jetting, reline) confirmed by SMS within minutes. Not a queue, not a callback.

  2. Routed

    Live ETA, refreshed as they drive.

    Once your drainer leaves the depot the ETA SMS auto-refreshes. No need to call and ask whether they’re still coming.

  3. Shown

    The CCTV footage on your screen.

    You see the fault on the camera monitor before we quote a reline; and you keep the recorded footage and report either way.

  4. Honoured

    Late-fee waiver, automatic.

    Miss the window without warning and the call-out portion of your invoice is automatically waived. No claim form, no negotiation.

On-Time, Live

We turn up when we say we will; here is the proof

Every drainage job we attended today, with the booked window, the actual arrival time, and whether we hit it. We publish the misses too; and waive the call-out fee when we cause one.

The honest comparison

Relining vs digging: what other drainers won’t spell out.

Side by side with a traditional dig-and-replace on the same failed pipe; no spin, no fine print. Just what a no-dig reline actually delivers, and what quietly costs you more when the drain is excavated instead.

  • Compared on the same failed line
  • Every row reflects our standard method
  • No hidden reinstatement extras

How It Works

What happens when you call us about a failing drain in Sydney?

Same upfront pricing whether it’s a planned reline, an emergency collapse, or a strata sewer. Here is exactly what to expect from the first CCTV survey to the final footage.

Step 01
Step 01

CCTV survey & fault location

We push a self-levelling drain camera through the line and locate the fault to the metre with a sonde. You watch it live on the monitor; cracks, root intrusion, offset joints, bellies or collapse are all visible before we quote a thing.

Booking Recorded

Visit details confirmed

Contact method Confirmed
Address checked
Access notes Added
Step 02
Step 02

Clean & prepare the pipe

High-pressure water jetting scours out grease, scale and debris, and a robotic cutter grinds back intruding roots and protrusions so the host pipe is clean and round. A second camera pass confirms the bore is ready to line.

On-site Assessment

Fault checked in context

Symptoms checked
Likely cause explained
Options As needed
Step 03
Step 03

Install & cure the liner

A resin-impregnated liner is inverted or pulled into place and inflated tight against the old pipe wall, then cured with ambient, hot water or steam to form a hard, seamless structural pipe inside the original; cured-in-place pipe (CIPP).

Scope and Price

Confirmed before repair

Repair scope Written
Fixed price Confirmed
Approval Required
Step 04
Step 04

Reinstate junctions & re-camera

A robotic cutter reopens any branch junctions from the inside, then we run a final CCTV pass and hand you the footage. You get a smooth, jointless drain with a 50-year design life; and nothing above ground was disturbed.

Completion Check

Result and records reviewed

Work area cleaned
Invoice provided
Every relining job in Sydney is backed by our lifetime workmanship warranty plus a written 50-year design-life product warranty on the liner; in writing, on your invoice.

Our Guarantee

Two warranties; both in writing, both honoured

Every reline is covered by our lifetime workmanship warranty on the install and a written 50-year design-life warranty on the liner and resin. Both are explained in plain English on your invoice. No fine print, no exclusions you have to dig out of a PDF.

Why licensing matters

Licensed plumber vs. unlicensed worker

Plumbing work in NSW must be carried out by a licensed plumber. It is not just a formality, licensing protects your home, your insurance, and your right to recourse if something goes wrong.

Licensed plumber

What you get

  • Work is insured and meets the National Plumbing Code
  • Compliance Certificate issued for every job
  • Home insurance and warranty stay valid
  • Statutory warranty backed by NSW Fair Trading
  • Clear path to dispute resolution if needed
Unlicensed worker

What you risk

  • Work may breach the NSW Plumbing and Drainage Act
  • No Compliance Certificate: issues at resale
  • Home insurance claims commonly denied
  • No statutory warranty on the work performed
  • Limited recourse: Fair Trading cannot assist
Our NSW Plumbing Licence 236784C Fixed Today Plumbing Pty Ltd

Most home insurance policies will not pay out for damage caused by unlicensed plumbing work. A burst hot water unit from a non-compliant install can void cover on the entire claim, often tens of thousands of dollars.

Customer Reviews

What Sydney says after we’ve saved the driveway

A failing drain is stressful; the fear of a torn-up yard even more so. These are real customers; root-choked sewers, collapsed stormwater, heritage relines; telling you what the no-dig experience was actually like.

Third time using Fixed Today for different plumbing jobs across our rental properties. Consistently reliable, always on time, and the upfront pricing means no bill shock. Their CCTV drain inspection saved us thousands by identifying the real problem first.

Blocked Drains Penrith
Robert Kim Google
★★★★★

Tree roots had completely blocked our sewer line. Fixed Today used their jet blaster to clear it and then patched the damaged section of pipe. They showed me exactly where the roots were getting in and gave me options to prevent it happening again. Top notch work.

Used Fixed Today for a stormwater drainage issue at our property. They did a camera inspection, showed me the footage, and explained the options clearly. The repair work was completed on schedule and they followed up a week later to check everything was flowing properly.

Emergency call at midnight for a blocked drain backing up into our kitchen. The plumber arrived fast, was polite and efficient, and resolved the blockage quickly. No extra charges for the late hour which was a pleasant surprise. Will definitely use again for any plumbing issues.

Absolutely brilliant service from start to finish. Called at 7am with a burst pipe and they had a plumber at our door within the hour. Upfront pricing, no surprises, and the job was done properly. The plumber even cleaned up afterwards. Could not recommend Fixed Today enough.

Walk-away signs on a relining quote

  • 'No-dig' but an excavated access point sneaks into the scope
  • No mention of root cutting or pipe cleaning before lining
  • Design life and warranty term left off the written quote
  • No after-reline footage offered
  • Pressure to sign on the day to lock in a discount
