Trenchless technology introduces a new dimension in plumbing; removing the need to dig trenches and excavate sites to repair pipe problems. Pipe Hunter offers a low impact, permanent alternative to traditional pipe replacement methods.
RESIDENTIAL PIPE LINING
What causes blocked & damaged pipes?
The lifetime of a pipe is naturally limited. Material fatigue, chemical substances, earth movements and strain will inevitably lead to damaged pipes, over time. Modern pipe systems generally last longer due to improvements in technology; however pipes will break down with increased traffic, construction works and ground movement caused by wet or dry seasons. Cracks or breaks in pipes can allow tree roots to enter. These may block pipe flow or allow water to leak into the sub-soil and compromise the structural integrity of building foundations.
RESIDENTIAL DRAIN CLEANING & PIPE RELINING
What are some symptoms of blocked and damaged pipes?
– Water draining slowly in sinks and hand basins
– Toilets not flushing waste effectively
– Toilet bowls filling and water receding slowly
– An unpleasant odour around bathrooms and toilets
– Drains overflowing outside
Why is Pipe Lining the solution?
Pipe Lining uses trenchless technology that requires little or no earthworks to deliver a fast and permanent solution for repairing blocked and damaged pipes. Traditionally pipes have been dug up and replaced; now Pipe Hunter offers a cleaner, cost effective alternative without the disruption of excavation.
Our pipe lining technology is so flexible that it can be used to reline continuous lengths of pipe or provide short patches, reline multiple bends, boundary traps or create junction repairs. Suitable for storm water or sewerage pipes, Pipe Hunter’s system can be applied to pipe diameters ranging from 50mm up to 225mm.
MINIMAL IMPACT.
MAXIMUM RESULTS.
Trenchless technology introduces a new dimension in plumbing; removing the need to dig trenches and excavate sites to repair pipe problems. Pipe Hunter offers a low impact, permanent alternative to traditional pipe replacement methods.
If left unchecked, the potential for damaged pipes to affect our local environment is significant:
- Leaking sewerage pipes may cause public health concerns and threaten local flora and fauna
- Damaged water pipes can affect surrounding groundwater levels, compromising the structural integrity of building foundations
- Blocked pipes may create health risks at home or work via contamination from bacteria
Trenchless technology allows us to fix pipe problems with little or no digging and reduces the impact of plumbing works on landscaped areas, flooring, paving or driveways and minimises the disruption to household routines.
At Pipe Hunter, we only use Watermark products for our relining jobs. Approved by the ABCB (Australian Building Codes Board) these materials have a 40+ year life expectancy.
Our pipe lining system offers a long-term solution using high-performance materials including styrene free, non-toxic resins that are designed to minimise any impact on our environment.

DRAIN CLEANING
We have 4 X 1 tonne vehicles, fitted with mini jets which operate up to 5000psi, suitable for cleaning drains up to 150mm diameter with high pressure water.
CCTV SURVEYS
Pipe Hunter can carry out CCTV survey of pipelines from 40mm to 150mm in diameter. Information is presented to you in CCTV format, together with a written condition report.
PIPE RELINING
Pipe Hunter uses the highest standard Watermark products approved by the ABCB (Australian Building Codes Board). We can line drains from as small as 50mm, to 225mm in diameter.
VACUUM EXTRACTION
Our Municipal Jet Truck can also operate with our Vacuum Trailer for cleaning larger diameter pipes and pits; vacuuming out stormwater systems only.
