Sydney’s pipe infrastructure is aged. In some suburbs, pipes are over 100 years old and Sydney Water estimates that the average age of our infrastructure is 70 years. These pipes are critical infrastructure for every day Australians and require regular servicing and occasional remediation.

There are a range of rehabilitation options available to asset owners. These include:

• Pipe replacement – very expensive
• Pipe bursting – expensive
• Slip lining – average
• In pipe patching – value for money

Total Drain Cleaning is the leader in In-Pipe Patching in Sydney with our experienced team being trained and experienced in patching pipes of up to 1 metre in diameter.

Consider installing a localised structural patch to rectify your assets defects.
