Our service process to determine the best repair solution

Upon receiving a call from the Customer with a drain or pipe problem, we will dispatch a crew to their house or place of business with all equipment required to unblock and analyse these pipes. We will charge an hourly rate with all costs of labour and the latest equipment included so there are no surprises.

NB* we do not charge extra for the use of equipment. Charges are transparent.

Process of unblocking and quoting for permanent repair solution:

Clearing the Blockage

Once we have arrived on the site, we’ll unblock and clear the blockage/s using the following equipment:

  • High-Pressure WaterJet – in 90% of cases this is the quickest way to unblock and clear the pipe, especially Stormwater
  • Picote Grinding Chains – Chains are used when a blockage is too stubborn for waterjets. An example is massive diameter tree roots and/or rocks and building debris. Also, great for cast iron stack cleaning. Chain mostly used when clearing a toilet blockage as overflow is less likely.
  • Robotic Cutter — Used for pipes that have slightly collapsed or when cement, mortar, tiles, or other building debris is present.
CCTV

Once the pipe is cleared of debris our camera is pushed through the pipe. This process enables our Technician to mark by approx meters the problem areas, ie. cracks; misaligned joints; tree roots etc. It also confirms to the Technician and the Owner that the blockage has been completely removed.

Our Electronic Pipe Locator is then used to pinpoint where the camera/blockage is in the pipe and at what depth. We then provide you with a free USB of the pipe footage.

Quoting

This is free and given upon completion of Step 2. You will receive a Scope of Works so you are in control and can seek the advice of another Plumber if you wish.

We can also offer the services of analysing the Tree Roots to determine their ownership and thus the responsible party for the damage.

STREAMLINE’S GOAL

To arm the householder with the ability to fix their problem with the best, cheapest pipe repair solution.
