A broken pipe, or one that keeps blocking
Roots back every few months, a smell along the line, a soft patch in the lawn, sewage at the gully. Each points to a pipe that has cracked or moved, and each starts with a look at the pipe itself.
Pipe relining · Adelaide
In Kensington, the old drain often runs beside a heritage wall or under a shared path. We assess it before choosing between a liner and a spade.

Kensington
Kensington's drains run under brick homes, shared walls, narrow side paths and old gardens, and Second Creek runs under part of the suburb. Digging there means lifting paving and working tight against walls that have stood since the 1800s. So we find the cause first, then look at whether the pipe suits relining or needs a short dug repair.
Where the pipe suits relining, a liner goes in through an existing opening and seals the old joints from the inside. Where a section has collapsed or dropped, a short dug repair replaces just that length. We quote the fix the pipe needs, and you'll know the price before we start.

The camera shows the length of damage, the pipe’s material and shape, and the access points. That decides the fix. You see the evidence before you’re asked to choose.

Where the pipe suits relining, yes. We look at your Kensington drain on camera first, then quote relining, or a short dug repair where a section has failed.
It needs a look first. Clearing, a short dug repair, relining or a new section are all options, and the camera shows which one the pipe needs before you’re quoted.
Where the pipe suits relining, a resin-soaked liner goes in through an existing opening and cures inside the old pipe, forming a new pipe within it. The garden, driveway or path above stays where it is.
The pipe’s condition, its length, the access points and what sits above it. A collapsed or badly sagging section is dug out and replaced. Cracked or root-entered pipe that still holds its shape often suits a liner.
