Servicing Brisbane Northside, Southside, and Moreton Bay.
Common Causes of Pipe Damage
Wondering why your pipes are acting up? Here are the most frequent causes we see across Brisbane:
- Tree roots – Roots naturally seek out moisture, entering joints or cracks and causing blockages or breaks
- Ground shifting – Soil movement, traffic vibrations, or nearby construction can dislodge underground pipework
- Aging infrastructure – Galvanised steel, clay, or copper pipes degrade over time
- Corrosion and mineral buildup – Internal rust or sediment can erode pipe walls
- Poor installation methods and old earthenware piping – Improperly installed joints or deteriorating clay pipes from older Brisbane homes often fail at connection points
We use CCTV camera inspections to pinpoint the exact cause and location of the issue before recommending the most suitable repair method.
Sectional Pipe Repair Without Excavation
Not all damaged pipes require full replacement or extensive relining. When only a small portion of a pipe is compromised, we can perform targeted sectional repairs (also called pipe patching). This trenchless technique allows us to repair only the affected section, leaving the rest of the pipe untouched.
Benefits of this method include:
- No need to dig through concrete or landscaped areas
- Lower cost than full pipe relining or replacement
- Quick turnaround (usually same day)
- Durable epoxy patches that resist future root invasion or leaks
Whether you’ve got a cracked sewer line or a leaking stormwater drain, our patching method is designed to solve the problem without the mess.
Full Pipe Excavation and Replacement
While trenchless methods work well for minor repairs, most water and sewer pipe damage requires complete excavation and replacement. When pipes are severely damaged, corroded, or have multiple failure points, digging up and replacing the affected section is often the most reliable long-term solution.
Our excavation services include:
- Complete pipe removal and replacement
- Proper backfilling and compaction
- Driveway and landscaping reinstatement
- Compliance with Brisbane City Council requirements
- Minimal disruption with efficient dig and restore processes
We'll always assess whether a trenchless repair is viable first, but when excavation is necessary, we complete the work professionally with full site restoration.
This balances the content to reflect that excavation is actually the primary repair method, not just the alternative option.RetryD
Water Pipe Repairs Done Right
Whether it's a leaking pipe behind your wall or a burst line under the slab, our team is fully equipped to handle all types of water pipe repairs. We’ll identify the issue, isolate the affected section, and provide a durable, code-compliant fix that restores pressure and flow without surprises or unnecessary upsells.
We repair:
- Hot and cold water pipes
- Burst copper and poly piping
- Leaks in ceiling, underfloor or external walls
- Pipe joints and valve seals
We also provide repiping advice and upgrades if your current plumbing system is outdated or showing widespread signs of failure.
Sewer and Stormwater Pipe Repairs
A damaged underground sewer or stormwater pipe can cause pooling water, foul smells, or even subsidence around your property. We use a combination of jet rodding, CCTV inspection, and pipe lining or patching techniques to resolve the problem efficiently without digging up driveways or gardens.
If full replacement is required, we’ll explain why, offer transparent pricing, and provide professional excavation and reinstatement as needed.
