No-Dig Pipe Repair Options
If you have a damaged pipe, there are several ways it can be restored.
- Sectional Pipe Patching: A targeted cost-effective fix for isolated cracks and leaks; a small scale, no-dig option.
- Trenchless Pipe Relining: A full-length repair, similar to pipe patching but for bigger issues. Typically used with ageing pipes or extensively damaged lines.
- Traditional Pipe Replacement: Requires manual excavation and is often quite disruptive. This is needed when the pipe is damaged beyond repair and cannot house the lining used in pipe patching and relining.
The most suitable repair option depends on the location, type and extent of the damage to your pipes. While full replacement used to be the standard, no-dig pipe repair options are becoming a preferred choice for Brisbane property owners. These methods, like pipe patching and pipe relining, allow us to repair leaking sewer pipes or cracked stormwater lines without major excavation to your garden or driveway.
The Benefits of Pipe Patching
Pipe patching, or sectional pipe relining as it’s sometimes called, is a targeted, no-dig approach which repairs just the specific section of the pipe that is damaged. It’s an ideal repair solution for small, isolated issues like an intruding tree root or localised crack.
By choosing sectional patching for your Brisbane home or business, you get many key benefits:
- Cost-Effective: You pay only to repair the fault, rather than excavation or relining an entire run of pipe. This saves significantly on both labour and material costs.
- Minimal Disruption: No excavation is required to access the damaged pipes, so there’ll be little disruption to your property.
- Permanent Structural Strength: Our patching materials create a seal that is typically stronger than the original pipe.
- Fast Turnaround: Most pipe patching can be installed within hours, so you can get solutions within the day.

Pipe repair FAQs
Plumbers eel vs water jetters
Blocked drains can be a totally nightmare! The stinking smell, backing up water, slowly draining sinks, and gurgling toilets are just some of the signs of blocked drains. Luckily the drains can be cleared easily with the help of important tools in the arsenal of a plumber like a plumbers eel or water jetter. But which is better to clear a blocked drain?
The ideal method used to clear the drain depends on the cause of the blockage and its location.
Who is responsible for blocked drains?
To find out whose responsibility is it to repair blocked drains – property owner, council or tenant, a plumber should be called to identify the root cause and location of the blockage.
If the blocked drains are on your property, it’s your responsibility or your tenants.However, there are a lot of grey areas and there should be ample evidence to determine which party caused the damage.
If the blockage is outside your property, your local council is responsible.
Contact your local plumber, they can tell you who is responsible for the blocked drains and claim the expenses from the council if needed.
Pipe relining vs pipe patching
There is no one best way to fix a pipe and before your plumber would even consider pipe relining or pipe patching, we need to determine the cause of the problem itself. In some cases, blockages can be alleviated by the simple use of a high-pressure jet rodding. In order to repair a pipe with current advanced plumbing techniques, it really depends on the type and extent of the damage to the piping in question.
How much does it cost to unblock a drain?
Unblocking a drain is typically, straightforward and fast when you ask an expert like Brisbane Plumbing and Drainage.
In the early stages, like when you first notice a sink or bath is slow to drain, the idea of a full blockage can be worrying. Many home or property owners may try to ‘DIY’ the solution to keep costs down, but these types of fixes are normally temporary or not effective.
Even with the specialist equipment and experienced know-how you get by putting it in the hands of an expert, the cost is often a low-range three-digit price.
When should you call a plumber for a blocked drain?
When you ask a licensed, experienced plumber, they’ll tell you there are 4 basic warning signs to watch out for when professional help could just avert a total disaster that could cause a huge mess and cost you an arm and a leg.
First, watch out for that toilet. Is the waste draining away as it should?
Second, watch out for slow draining in other areas of the house, especially the kitchen, bathroom or other wet areas. Gurgling noises and foul smells are also a red flag to keep an eagle eye on. Once a blockage becomes complex, it can be too late – and then you’ll be needing a 24/7 emergency plumbing call-out and counting the damage in the thousands.
Is a blocked drain classed as an emergency?
A blocked drain can absolutely be an emergency, one that not only disrupts your life but can cost you thousands in repairs, and potentially even bring health impacts. After all, plumbing and drainage was one of the major advances of the 20th century that keeps our homes and bodies healthy and disease-free.
Luckily, Brisbane Plumbing and Drainage have an emergency plumbing team on call 24/7. A blockage can result in flooding or devastating leaks, and those situations can spiral out of control in a matter of seconds. With every passing second after that, you could be counting in the thousands of dollars.
Uncontrolled waste is also the perfect breeding ground for bacteria such as salmonella, which can be fatal for vulnerable people, and your problem could even spill beyond the bounds of your property. Generally, our rule is this: If it feels like a plumbing emergency, it most certainly IS a plumbing emergency – so don’t hesitate to call an expert.
