Dr Drains Drain Relining Canberra
Dr Drains specialises in drain water pipe relining and restoration and we use the very latest and most advanced technology to supply the very best service to our clients.
One particular state-of-the-art method is the ‘no-digging’ repair. Not having to dig means your property is easily returned to its original state as soon as the work is finished, meaning less disruption for you.
Is your sewage piping blocking up due to root intrusion?
Maybe you have cracked or leaking/broken sewer pipes?
Modern day water pipe lining is like creating a new pipe inside the old pipe. We offer a 50 year warranty. It only takes a few hours and is as strong or stronger than the original pipe. The internal diameter is reduced by a few millimeters but the flow of water is hardly reduced and certainly improved over a blocked pipe. To fit a pipe liner, we only need one point of entry so compared to old-fashioned excavation, drain relining is much more cost effective, cleaner and faster.
Sometimes it is not possible to repair a pipe using standard repair methods. The pipe might be right underneath the house and there’s simply no way to dig it out anyway. With a trenchless pipe repair, we can offer our clients a choice of repair. You can reline or replace, it’s up to you. You’ll no longer have the problem of having to dig up your garden or kitchen to get to the leak if there’s no need.
Dr Drains Drain Relining is a new system that helps restore pre-existing water lines without destruction or water pipe replacement. This is not just restricted to sewage pipes. It also includes water pipes and any other interior pipe.
The process works like this: we turn up, thoroughly clean your existing sewage pipes; and locate the crack or leak. We then insert an epoxy liner into the pipe wrapped around an inflatable tube. We then inflate the tube, the epoxy sets to repair the pipe and we deflate and remove the pump. This ensures a solid repair that will last for years and protects against leaks and increases water flow through the pipes.
Drain/pipe relining works extremely well in all sorts of sewer line piping, from high-rise vertical sewer line plumbing and rainfall drain pipes, to underground cast iron and clay pipes. It even works for pipes that have started to collapse. Pipe relining permanently restores the pipe so that the water flows freely once more.

Honest and reliable service. Another plumber had quoted 10k for digging up and replacing pipes. Dr Drains came and reviewed the pipes and recommended a root treatment option that was much more affordable. Really appreciate the service!
Prior to undertaking work, Dr Drains explained with respect the issues and the variables in play; they didn't patronize or try to steam roll me; both Josh and Jeremy invested the time to allay my significant concerns on the situation; they minimized disruption to the dig site and damage to my yard when needing to get access to move digger through it / vegetation to access site. DD quoted at a competitive rate, and honoured that rate even after the job ended up being more complex than first appreciated. Followed up with job satisfaction, and informed me how to make a claim for reimbursement against Icon Water/ were supportive in ensuring they'd provide all necessary info for me to do so (including contacting Icon on multiple occasion to attend the site, when the issue was clearly on Icon's part of the sewerage line). Hope I'll never have to use them again; wouldn't hesitate to contact them if I do.
Dr Drains were great in isolating and fixing a blocked storm water pipe at my house. They also assisted providing information that resulted in the entire storm water line being cleared by council. They also followed up with me regularly to ensure that the blockage and additional works were complete. I would recommend their services without reservation.
