Damaged or just blocked?

Not every blocked drain is a repair job. Sometimes it's paper, grease or roots, and a hydro jet clears it.

Repeat blockages

When clearing it won't fix it

If the same section blocks repeatedly, or a camera inspection shows a crack, an offset joint or a collapsed section, drainage repairs are what fixes it. Clearing the blockage again won't.

Thin walls, holes and splits

The pipe wall thins from the inside, then holes or splits appear, usually at a joint. Jetting that section can make a thin wall worse, not better, which is why we camera it first.

Three ways we repair a drain

We choose the method from what the CCTV camera shows, not from a standard package. Plumbed Right repairs drains with patch relining, point repair or excavation, depending on the damage.

  1. Two techs at an open access pit in a garden with a CCTV reel

    Point repair

    For a single crack, break or joint failure, we dig a small access hole at that exact spot and repair or replace just that section. Less digging than a full dig-up, because only the damaged length is exposed.

  2. Three techs in hi-vis inside a pipe relining rig trailer

    Patch relining

    For localised cracks or root entry points, we apply a resin patch to the inside of the pipe at the damaged section, without opening the ground at all. It is the smaller version of a full pipe reline, used when the rest of the pipe is sound.

  3. Smashed PVC pipe in a sand trench with roots

    Excavation

    For a collapsed section, a badly offset joint or pipe too deteriorated to reline, we excavate and replace the damaged length. We'll tell you during the camera inspection, before we quote, not after digging starts.

Pricing

What a drain repair
costs

The final cost depends on the repair method, pipe location and access. We quote after the camera inspection, once we know exactly what the pipe needs. Have a written quote for the same job from another licensed Perth plumber? We'll beat it.

How we price it
Job typeTypical costWhat's included
Drain repair Quoted after the camera inspection Typical Perth ranges are in our drain repair cost guide
Point repair, patch relining or excavation Quoted after the camera inspection Method chosen from the footage
Coming out to quote No call-out fee Price agreed before any work starts

Typical Perth ranges, not a fixed price list. We confirm your exact price on site, before any work starts.

What changes the price

  1. Type of blockage

    Grease and hair clear fast with a hydro jet. Roots or solids need cutting equipment first.

  2. Where it sits

    A pipe under a slab, driveway or garden bed adds access time.

  3. Pipe age and material

    Old clay or rusted galvanised pipe can need extra prep before the repair.

  4. Repair method

    Relining avoids digging. A full dig-and-replace adds excavation and reinstatement.

Why Plumbed Right

Why Perth
calls us

A repair quoted without a camera inspection is a guess. We camera the drain before we quote a repair, so the method we quote matches what's actually wrong with the pipe.

  1. Camera before the quote

    Point repair, patch or excavation is chosen from the footage, not a default assumption.

  2. Since 2005

    Perth family owned, licensed and insured. Lic. PL7390.

  3. Our own team

    Our own team runs the camera inspection and carries out the repair.

  4. Warranty on the work

    Repair work carries our 12-month service warranty. Pipe relining carries a 25-year warranty.

    Cost

    How much does a drain repair cost in Perth?

    The price depends on the repair method, pipe location and access, so we confirm it after a camera inspection, before any work starts. Our drain repair cost guide shows typical Perth ranges.

    Is there a call-out fee to get a repair quote?

    No. There's no call-out fee to come out and quote the repair, and if you have a written quote for the same job from another licensed Perth plumber, we'll beat it.

    Method

    How do you know which repair method my pipe needs?

    We run a CCTV camera through the pipe first. What the camera shows (a single crack, an offset joint or a collapsed section) determines whether we use point repair, patch relining or excavation.

    Do you need to dig up my yard for a drain repair?

    Not always. Point repairs need a small access hole at the damaged spot, and patch relining needs none. Full excavation is only used when the pipe is too damaged to repair from the inside.

    What's the difference between a drain repair and pipe relining?

    A drain repair fixes a single damaged section: a crack, joint or short run. Pipe relining seals a longer section, or the whole pipe, from end to end. See our pipe relining page for the full-length method.

    Can you repair rusted galvanised pipes?

    Yes. We clean the pipe internally with a Picote milling machine to strip rust and scale, then repair or reline the cleaned section rather than replacing the whole pipe run.
