Some of the benefits:

  • Improved flow rate

  • Structurally sound pipes

  • No groundwater contamination

  • No tree root invasion

Pipe Patching

When underground tree roots are looking for moisture, they may zero in on a leaking pipe and make the problem worse. The roots may penetrate the pipe and create a larger hole, and we will patch that once we have removed the roots. We can do this without excavation by sending down an underground camera to reveal the scale of the issue. Our experts at Ruttley Relining will then clean everything up before attaching a piece of fibreglass fabric that we will coat with epoxy resin. We will then attach it to an inflatable bladder. Once we’ve pumped it in, the patch will set in place. After the resin cures, the fibreglass will be as hard as the original pipe, and this will seal off any leaks.

Some of the benefits:

  • Improved flow rate

  • Structurally sound pipes

  • No groundwater contamination

Junction Patching

Some of the benefits:

  • Custom-fit and tight-fitting

  • Tried and tested epoxy resin:

    • optimum bonding with existing pipes
    • no restriction to flows
    • appropriate mechanical properties
    • high durability against chemicals
  • Using steam to speed up the cure process

Junction Patching

As the weather can be extreme in the Inner West area, periods of drought and deluge can cause significant movement below ground. When this happens, two sections of pipe may split apart at a junction and will need to be patched up and restored as soon as possible. Sometimes, the bonding materials that hold the pipes together break down. But whatever the cause, we will introduce a special junction patch to connect the pipes again.

CCTV Inspection | Pipe Relining

A CCTV drain survey can detect:

  • Cracked or broken pipes

  • Pipe or sewer collapses

  • Damage from nesting rodents or other animals

  • Surface damage, including jetting or delaminating damage

  • Pipe damage by root growth

  • Damaged chambers and gullies

  • Issues with badly constructed drainage systems

CCTV Drain Inspections

We know you don’t like disruption and certainly don’t like to see big holes in your back garden. This is why Ruttley Relining invested in the latest CCTV drain camera technology. We can send these down into your pipe to what would otherwise be an inaccessible point to determine what is wrong. Again, tree roots may have penetrated and have broken or cracked the pipe. As the roots move further into the pipe, this can cause a significant blockage, and debris will invariably build up. It is not unusual for pests to try and make their home in there as well, but our camera will reveal all soon.
You will want to schedule a CCTV drain survey so our experts can find out what is causing the backup and restore normal service to your Inner West property.

Robotic Cutting

Some of the benefits:

  • Excellent manoeuvrability through 90-degree bends

  • Precision cutting in pipes from 50mm to 250mm in diameter

  • Integrated colour camera with air and water cleaning

Robotic Cutting

Once we have discovered the scale of the problem within your underground pipes, we will need to remove any obstruction so we can repair the damage. To do this, Ruttley Relining will send down a robotic cutting machine so we can grind away any significant obstructions effectively. Our cameras may have revealed some solid tree roots or found an area where parts of the pipe have crusted over. The robotic cutting arm will grind away these obstructions, and we’ll be able to see what’s going on in perfect clarity due to the integrated colour camera system attached.

Ruttley Relining Tools of Trade_ High-Pressure Water Jet Cleaning

Some benefits of HPWC:

  • Descaling pipes

  • Tank cleaning

  • Surface preparation

  • Descaling drains and sewers

  • Floor preparation

High-Pressure Water Cleaning

While a robotic cutting machine will get rid of very large obstructions, something less solid but equally as annoying may have caused the problem. With time, different materials can flow through the pipe, accumulate at a junction and be very difficult to remove. Paint, concrete, rubber, resins, rust and chemical residue all come to mind. And, when these present a challenge, our high-pressure water cleaning jet will blast away the blockage very quickly.
