No-dig repair

Why this happens in Southport

Southport's plumbing stock tells you a fair bit about the suburb's history. Inland and around the older residential pockets you've still got original fibro-era and Queenslander-style homes with clay or earthenware pipe that's had sixty-plus years of root intrusion, ground movement and joint failure. Closer to the CBD and the Broadwater, high-rise and townhouse development has replaced a lot of that older housing. But the shared plumbing feeding those units and complexes still runs under landscaped courtyards, pool decks and shared driveways, and nobody wants that dug up for a standard repair.

Then there's the Broadwater frontage and the canal-adjacent pockets around Southport, where the ground holds more moisture near the water table. It moves more than sandier inland soil and puts extra strain on old pipe joints over time, which is a big part of why relining, rather than excavation, is usually the better fit for houses and complexes in this part of Southport.

Pipe Relining Southport
What we get called to

What we fix in Southport

Cracked or root-damaged clay and PVC sewer lines under established gardens
Offset and separated joints in older earthenware pipe
Cracked stormwater and sewer lines under driveways, paths and courtyards
Corroded or failing sections in ageing pipe runs that are still structurally sound enough to line rather than replace
Recurring blockages that trace back to a damaged section rather than a one-off clog
Start to finish

What actually happens on the job

1

Camera inspection first

Nothing gets quoted off a guess. The camera shows exactly where the damage is, how long it runs, and whether the pipe is a candidate for lining at all.

2

Jetting and cleaning

Roots, scale and buildup are cleared so the liner can bond properly along the full length of the damaged section.

3

Liner installed through an existing access point

No trench, no reinstating the driveway or the lawn. The resin liner goes in through an access point that's already there, inflates and cures in place as a continuous sleeve with no joints for roots to find.

4

Second camera pass to verify

We confirm the liner has cured correctly and the line is clear before we call the job done.

Before you book

What it costs

Pipe relining is priced by the length of pipe being lined and how difficult access is. A straightforward run to an existing access point costs less than a longer section under a driveway, pool surround or stamped concrete that needs more careful staging. Pipe diameter and the extent of the damage shown on camera also factor in. You get a firm, upfront price after the camera inspection and before any work starts - never a phone-quote guess. There's no call-out fee to have us come and camera the pipe, and the liner itself is rated for around fifty years once it's in, so you're not paying for a repair that needs doing again in a few years.

Before you book

Questions we get asked

Is pipe relining worth it?

For most cracked or root-affected pipe that's otherwise structurally sound, yes. It avoids the cost and disruption of digging up a driveway, courtyard or established garden, and the liner itself is rated for around fifty years - often outlasting the original pipe. It's not the right fix for every situation (badly collapsed or misaligned pipe may still need excavation), which is why the camera inspection comes first.

What is the pipe relining cost per metre?

There's no flat per-metre rate we can quote without seeing the pipe. Cost depends on the diameter, the length being lined, how many bends or junctions are involved, and how accessible the access point is. We give you an exact, itemised price after the camera inspection - before any work starts, not after.

Can you reline under a concrete driveway?

Yes. That is most of what we do here. The liner goes in through an existing access point and cures in place, so the driveway, the paving and the pool surrounds stay exactly as they are.

Do you need an existing access point to reline a pipe?

Usually, yes - that's what makes it a no-dig job. If there isn't a usable one, we may need to open one small spot to get access, which we'll explain clearly as part of the quote.

Matt came to our home was a delight to work with. Excellent workmanship and very courteous. Went above and beyond to assist. He provided us with quotes for various plumbing items, he quickly provided a detailed quote, explained options. He was excellent at commencing work in one area, and double checked water pressure in our area, hot water system and the plumbing items I had purchased. A great tradesman. Thoroughly recommend. Thankyou Matt.

Had an issue with our 16 year old toilet leaking from underneath the pan somewhere. Called Blake & he sent Lachlan out the following morning to diagnose & quote. Lachlan gave us 3 options, which was great. We chose the middle one, which included replacing all the internals, so hopefully we should be OK for another 16 years! Both Blake & Lachlan were great to deal with & Lachlan did a great job - definitely better than the original installation, which looked a bit dodgy! Happy to recommend.

This is the type of plumbing service that everybody wants. They quote before they do the job. They turn up when they say they will. And they're very good at what they do. Good Service - Fair Price - not something you normally say about Plumbers these days. Keep up the great work Blake, Lachie and Raif.

Amazing service. Highly recommend Lachlan and Genies Plumbing. Thank you for taking time out of your Saturday to put in my new hot water system. Truly a work of art!

Absolutely amazing service from the moment I got in touch with them, and in particular Blake. I explained to him my issue and he took the time and effort (completely unprompted) in providing steps of how he would tackle the problem. When it came time to actually have the issue physically looked at, Lachie gave me a call and let me know how far away he was; he arrived promptly and on-time, and was able to very quickly diagnose and provide a solution. I was quoted on the spot and not pressured whatsoever to have more things looked at than I needed to, which I very much appreciated. While I've got my fingers crossed to not have any further short-term issues with my property's plumbing, I'd wholeheartedly recommend these guys and gals to anyone willing to listen. I'm sure there are many other great plumbing businesses around the Gold Coast, but for my money I'd much rather support a local family-owned business providing a very honest and transparent service, who also aren't looking to bleed your wallet dry.

Very happy with the service from Genies Plumbing. We had a leaking kitchen tap and Blake was out in a couple of hours. He sourced a new one, came back later in the day and fitted it. He advised his arrival times very efficiently and was friendly and polite. Would certainly recommend him and call on him again when necessary.

Matty was honest, genuine, and professional from start to finish. It’s not always easy to find a plumber you can trust, but Matty was upfront, reliable, and took the time to explain everything clearly. A great company with fantastic service. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy plumber. I wish them every bit of success in the future - they truly deserve it!

I live in a unit complex and had to get my hot water system replaced as it was old and also to meet the current standards and regulations. I contacted the boys at Genies Plumbing. To say I was happy with their service is an understatement. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. They were prompt professional and very neat and tidy and took the time to show me how everything worked and answer all my questions. Thanks Blake and Lachlan for a great job.

Lachlan from Genies Plumbing arrived on time and thoroughly looked over the job before providing us with a quote which he fully explained. He then cracked on with the work and did an amazing job! He was super easy to deal with and had our bathroom fitted off and functioning within a couple of hours. Very pleased we used Genies Plumbing and would recommend them.

I had a blocked kitchen sink and was quite concerned about the potential for damage and inconvenience. I called Genies Plumbing and once again received outstanding service from Blake. He was prompt, professional, and explained everything clearly. This isn’t the first time I’ve called on Blake, and every time he delivers reliable, high-quality work with genuine care. I really appreciate his consistency, attention to detail, and friendly approach. Highly recommend Genies Plumbing — especially Blake — for exceptional service you can trust!

Blake and Lachlan assisted us with a very complex realignment. They were brilliant. They took the time to explain everything, kept me updated with any issues that arose, kept on time and impressively on budget. They could not have worked harder to resolve our issues. I was so worried that we would need to crack our slab and have to retile the majority of our house. These boys made a plan and stuck to it. Fabulous outcome!!

Great service, friendly, reliable and professional. Thanks to Blake and Lachy, we had a water main leak detected and repaired in no time. They went above and beyond to make sure we had rectified the issue quickly. Highly recommended and will be using Genies for all of our plumbing needs in the future

Blake and Lachlan from Genies Plumbing were really helpful when installing a new hot water heater in my home. It was a quick process with excellent workmanship and very reasonable cost. They were both lovely to deal with and communicated with me at all times. I am so glad Genies Plumbing was recommended to me by my electrician. Will definitely call on them again. Trish

From the moment we made the call with our list of to do's - to the moment the boys came and left after the job completion- the entire help was incredible, and the workmanship was thorough and detailed and reasonable". This workmanship advise is Beyond MOST service and help we have experienced over the last few years. Thank you boys! This type of experience is often not the most favourite one for many people, but in this case, what a great time to get everything sorted with an ease of mind and honesty personified. 2 showers 1 bath 1 laundry 1 bathroom sink Thanks again team - we'll see you again. You'll be our first point of call . A++++

I called Blake to help locate a tricky water leak on our acreage property, he quickly identified multiple leaks on both the council and our side of the line and got them all fixed. He kept us informed every step of the way, and was incredibly responsive and professional, and a genuinely nice person. He's also helping put together a storm water system to help manage the water drainage away from the house during storms. I wouldn’t hesitate recommending Blake for any plumbing job, big or small.

Had some plumbing work done by Blake from Genies Plumbing — removal of an old water meter and repair/replacement of some leaking pipework. Communication was great from start to finish, he was prompt, friendly, well priced, and made sure everything was cleaned up afterwards. Really happy with the work. Would definitely recommend and use again.
