In Merimbula, a homeowner’s stormwater drain was severely clogged. Tree roots had invaded the pipe and accumulated debris, impairing its functionality.
Our Response
Initial Cleaning
Our team quickly deployed high-pressure water jets. This powerful initial cleaning step is crucial to dislodge and remove the accumulated debris and invasive tree roots, preparing the pipe for the next stage of repair – drain relining.
Effective Drain Relining
Following the thorough cleaning, we began the relining process using advanced trenchless technology. A resin-impregnated liner was carefully inserted into the existing pipeline and cured in place. This method effectively creates a new, durable lining within the old pipe, extending its lifespan and improving its functionality.
Restoration and Final Checks
The drain relining treatment fully restored the functionality. We conducted a comprehensive final inspection to ensure everything was operating smoothly, leaving the homeowner with a like-new drainage system. The homeowner was thrilled with the quick turnaround and the clean, efficient work.

How Keogh Plumbing Got the Job Done
The project was managed by Sam and Mark, experienced plumbers from Keogh Plumbing, who ensured the process was seamless and minimally disruptive for the client.
- Inspection and Planning: The team used a drain camera to inspect the sewer line and confirm the location and extent of the damage. The 2-metre section of the 100mm-diameter pipe was identified as the area needing repair.
- Access Setup: Two access points were prepared—one upstream and one downstream of the damaged section. This setup allowed the team to carry out the relining without disturbing the footpath or surrounding areas.
- Pipe Relining: The flexible PVC liner was inserted into the existing pipe using the drag-in/pull-in-place method. Once in position, the liner was cured, creating a strong, seamless new pipe inside the old one.
- Connections and Testing: After the relining was completed, the team connected the new pipe to the existing PVC system, ensuring a watertight seal and optimal flow. The system was thoroughly tested to confirm its functionality.
