Our team was recently called to a property in Newport where the client was experiencing ongoing sewer issues, including unpleasant odour and suspected blockages. After a thorough inspection, we identified the cause of the problem and delivered a long-lasting solution through pipe relining.
The Client’s Concern
The homeowner had noticed a persistent foul odour coming from the rear section of the property, close to the main Sydney Water sewer line. They wanted a permanent fix that would eliminate the odour and prevent future blockages.
Inspection & Findings
After carrying out a detailed CCTV sewer inspection, our team discovered that the main sewer line runs along the right-hand side of the property before connecting to an old terracotta sewer shaft. This shaft drops approximately one and a half metres before meeting the Sydney Water sewer main.
The inspection revealed severe root intrusion, which was:
- Blocking the line at multiple joints
- Causing the unpleasant odour reported by the client
Likely to worsen without immediate repair
Recommended Solution – Pipe Relining
We advised the client that the best long-term solution was pipe relining. Unlike traditional pipe replacement, which requires excavation, pipe relining is non-invasive and provides a new, durable lining within the existing pipework.
This would:
- Seal all damaged and vulnerable joints
- Prevent further root intrusion
- Stop odours by creating a smooth, sealed surface
Provide a reliable, long-lasting repair without digging up the property
Results & Warranty
The project was completed successfully, with all root intrusion sealed off and the sewer odours eliminated. The homeowner now has:
- A renewed sewer line with a 25-year warranty
- Confidence in the quality of work thanks to four years of free annual inspections
- Peace of mind that future blockages and odours are prevented
Project Outcome
This pipe relining project in Newport is a great example of how our team helps homeowners solve serious sewer problems without excavation. By relining the final section of pipework, we provided a cost-effective, durable solution that will serve the property for decades to come.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Pipe relining in Newport creates a new, seamless lining inside the existing sewer or stormwater pipes. This smooth surface seals off cracked joints and prevents tree root intrusion, which is the main cause of blockages. By eliminating weak points in the terracotta or PVC pipes, pipe relining ensures long-term flow efficiency and reduces the risk of recurring blockages.
Yes. Pipe relining is a non-invasive, trenchless solution that avoids the need for excavation. For Newport homes, where access may be difficult near boundary shafts or Sydney Water connections, relining offers a faster and more cost-effective repair. It strengthens the existing pipeline, stops odours, and comes with long warranties, making it a smarter long-term investment compared to traditional pipe replacement.
When carried out by professionals, pipe relining in Newport can last more than 25 years. The epoxy resin liner used in the process is highly durable and resistant to corrosion, cracks, and root intrusion. Many services also include warranties and annual inspections, giving Newport homeowners peace of mind that their relined pipes will remain in excellent condition for decades.
