Pipe Relining Cost – Is It Worth It?

Simply put, Pipe Relining creates a pipe within the existing pipe. At Proximity Plumbing, we use a two-part epoxy that’s pulled through the pipe and expanded to leave a hard fibreglass shell that can’t be penetrated by roots. These new pipe lining systems are up to 4 times stronger than a new PVC pipe and are perfect for sewer pipe repair.

Pipe relining is the best solution for repairing difficult and damaged pipes. Known as a “no dig” solution and considerably less impactful than any other pipe repair options. It’s quiet, quick and clean, which is why it’s becoming the go-to service for our eastern suburbs clients who are looking for a long term solution that won’t disrupt the home or garden.

Help! I have a high water bill. What should I do?

Whether you are taking a sip or a shower, it is easier to forget that clean water is available to us in Australia…with a price tag.

Remember those 3 minute showers, anyone? 

It’s not until you get older and a high water bill lands in your mailbox that you realise water is a luxury we pay for. 

With a bit of jargon attached with a water bill, it’s tempting to simply pay the bill right away.

In this post, we’ll explain why you might receive a high water bill and what you can do about it.

Understanding Your Water Meter

If the reading on the bill appears as if it is a mistake or you are not sure about it, you should contact a professional right away.
