We have a great track record of work with storm water pipe repair, pipe bursting and much more, using trenchless plumbing techniques wherever possible

Our record of trenchless plumbing repair work includes a vast array of different cases and scenarios, from minor domestic callouts to large-scale commercial water and sewer main projects as well as the adoption of pipe bursting techniques.

Projects

Working in partnership with other principal contractors, we have been able to deliver the following:

 

For the Hunter Water Corporation, we were given the task of upgrading 600m of 900mm locking bar water pipe by sliplining an 800mm polyethylene pipe inside it. We employed our trenchless plumbing repair technology to carry out the works and everyone was pleased with the results.

 

When the Sydney Water Corporation requested our expertise, we were called upon to lay 200m of 800mm steel, cement-lined pipe through North Bankstown primary school using the open cut method. The work had to be completed during a short school holiday, so speed and efficiency were essential for the construction project to be a success. Not only were we able to meet the clients’ program schedule, but we exceeded the expectations of the school with our controlled excavation.

 

Cooma Monaro Shire Council needed our help to renew over 2km of 100mm asbestos-cement water main. We were able to employ our trenchless plumbing repair techniques and the pipe bursting method to replace the entire run with 180mm polyethylene pipe.

When dealing with asbestos, safety is paramount. We were able to tackle the unwanted material with no danger to the public and chose construction methods that significantly limited restoration costs for the council – especially as the pipe was located beneath a road surface.

It was our pleasure to work for the Sunshine Coast Council, renewing 70m of 350mm concrete storm water pipe through residents’ back yards. We replaced the old pipe with a 400mm polyethylene pipe, once again adopting the pipe bursting method. We were able to save the council a great deal of money due to our use of two small excavation holes, as opposed to digging a trench along the entire pipe-run. The method also had the benefit of limiting any aesthetic detriment, even in the short-term.

Tweed Council required us to slipline 220m of 400mm steel pipe under a river using 315mm polyethylene pipe. The purpose was to upgrade the sewer pressure pumping system and we are confident that they will never have to do so again.
