Services
Sewer & Sewage Systems
Sewer line repairs, replacements and new connections. CCTV inspection to identify cracks, root intrusion and collapses.
Sewer problems rarely stay small, a hairline crack today is a tree-rooted collapse in two years and raw sewage in the yard the summer after. We repair, replace and extend sewer systems across Newcastle, Lake Macquarie and the Hunter Region, with CCTV inspection on every job so you know exactly what you're paying to fix.

Frequently asked questions
Does the whole run need replacing, or just the damaged section?
Usually just the damaged section. The exception is when the whole run is old earthenware with multiple defects: replacing a 20-year-old patch next to a 60-year-old pipe that's about to fail doesn't make sense.
Can you connect a new granny flat to the sewer?
Yes, usually with a new junction off the existing sewer line within the property, plumbed through to the new building. Hunter Water paperwork handled as part of the job.
What if the problem is past my property boundary?
If the defect is in the sewer main past your property boundary, that's a Hunter Water asset and their crew's responsibility. We'll give you the CCTV footage so you can raise it with them and get the right crew out.
