Does the thought of major excavation work to repair damaged vertical pipes within your double-brick walls or sandstone foundations keep you awake at night? Stack relining in Balmain has become the preferred service for preserving the character of your property, and its plumbing integrity.
This high density of older, conjoined housing in this area means ageing, shared plumbing infrastructure is a common and complex challenge. When vertical stacks fail in these buildings, traditional repair methods simply aren’t viable or even permitted under council regulations–stack relining may be your only option.
Emergency Drains can provide this valuable service to property owners across Sydney–let’s delve into how it works!

Stack pipes are the vertical drainage pipes that run through your walls from upper floors to ground level and face a range of pressures, whether they’re in a double storey house or a multi-level apartment block. The combination of reactive clay soil (activated by Sydney’s weather cycles) and the hilly topography creates a unique “pincer movement” of pressure on old, brittle pipes. Add to this the invasive Port Jackson Fig roots that seek out and penetrate these ageing systems, and you have a recipe for serious drainage issues.
Common signs of stack pipe problems include:

Stack relining in Balmain offers a revolutionary approach to fixing damaged vertical pipes without any excavation or wall demolition. This trenchless technology creates a new, structural pipe inside your existing stack, permanently solving the problem while preserving greenery and structure that would be otherwise damaged during an excavation.
At Emergency Drains, our process involves:
First, we conduct a camera inspection of your stack pipes, identifying the exact locations of damage and their causes. This inspection is included free with every blocked drain service, and helps us get a complete picture of your plumbing’s health.
Using specialised equipment designed for vertical applications, we insert a resin-saturated liner into the damaged pipe. Once in position, we inflate the liner using a bladder and cure it in place, creating a stress-free, jointless new pipe within the old one.
This new pipe is actually stronger than the original, with our 30-year warranty backing its durability. We test the new pipe lining to make sure water can flow freely and that there are no leaks or cracks remaining.
When you need stack relining in Balmain, choosing the right specialist can make all the difference in the end result. Here's what sets Emergency Drains apart:
Complete confidence in your investment.
No hidden charges or surprise costs.
If we don't fix your problem, it's FREE.
Included with every blocked drain service.

Stack relining is a trenchless pipe repair method that creates a new pipe within your existing vertical drainage stack. Using epoxy resin technology, we form a stress-free, jointless pipe that’s actually stronger than the original, all without any excavation or wall damage.
Our stack relining comes with a 30-year warranty, but the technology stands the test of time for 50+ years. The new pipe resists root intrusion, corrosion, and minor ground movement.
Common indicators include recurring blockages, foul odours from walls, water stains, gurgling drains on upper floors, and sewage backing up into lower fixtures. If you’re experiencing any of these issues in your property, a CCTV inspection can confirm if stack relining is needed.
