Rated 4.9 Stars with 1000+ reviews, Curran is a name you can trust.

If you’ve discovered cracked, leaking, or blocked pipes on your property in Shellharbour, pipe relining is the smart, modern way to fix the problem without the mess of digging. Rather than excavating your garden, driveway, or patio, our trenchless “no-dig” method repairs the inside of your existing pipe by inserting a durable epoxy liner. Once in place, the liner hardens to create a strong, jointless, and watertight new pipe within the old one, just as sturdy as a full pipe replacement, but far less disruptive.
At Curran Plumbing, Electrical, Heating & Air, we’ve been helping homeowners and businesses across Shellharbour, Wollongong, and the Illawarra protect their properties for over 35 years. Our team combines traditional plumbing know-how with the latest technology, including robotic pipe cutting tools and CCTV drain cameras, to identify damage and carry out precise, long-lasting repairs. Pipe relining works on most common materials, from PVC to clay and cast iron, and is suitable for both residential and commercial systems, including sewer and stormwater lines.
Choosing Curran means choosing local expertise and quality you can rely on. We only use world-class Brawoliner products from Germany, approved to Australian Standard AS3500, ensuring your new lining stands the test of time, typically lasting up to 50 years. Whether you’re dealing with tree root intrusion, cracks, or corrosion, our no-fuss relining process gives you a permanent solution that restores your drains without tearing up your property. It’s efficient, economical, and completely backed by our 25-year installation warranty for total peace of mind.

Shellharbour’s coastal climate and established suburbs mean many homes have older plumbing systems that have seen better days. Over time, factors like tree root intrusion, shifting soil, corrosion, and age-related wear can cause cracks or collapses in underground pipes. You might notice early warning signs such as slow-draining sinks, gurgling noises, bad smells, or recurring blockages, all of which suggest your pipes could be damaged.
Leaving these issues untreated often leads to bigger problems: leaks under your home, damaged foundations, or even sewage overflow. That’s why it’s important to act early. At Curran, we start every job with a CCTV drain inspection, so we can see exactly what’s going on underground before recommending the best repair method. If the damage goes beyond a simple blockage, pipe relining is usually the most practical and cost-effective fix, protecting your property from further damage without the need for excavation.



Curran’s “no-dig” pipe relining process is fast, non-invasive, and designed to last. Once our team identifies the damaged section, we use high-pressure water jetting and robotic cutting tools to clear any blockages or debris and prepare the pipe. Then, a special epoxy resin liner is inserted and inflated to adhere perfectly to the inner surface of the existing pipe. When the liner hardens, it forms a new structural pipe within the old one, creating a permanent, watertight seal that’s resistant to cracks, leaks, and future root penetration.
The best part? Most pipe relining jobs in Shellharbour are completed in a single day, with no digging and minimal disruption to your home or garden. You won’t need to replace driveways or landscaping. Once the work is done, your plumbing is back in action almost immediately. With our advanced trenchless equipment, experienced technicians, and decades of expertise, Curran ensures every relining project is completed quickly, cleanly, and to the highest standard.
The cost of pipe relining can vary depending on the pipe size, length, location, and extent of the damage, but it’s often more economical than traditional excavation. At Curran, we believe in transparent, upfront pricing; you’ll always know exactly what the job will cost before we begin. We also offer interest-free payment options, so you can protect your home now and pay later.
Every Curran reline comes with a 25-year installation warranty and an annual warranty camera inspection to ensure everything continues to perform as it should. Our team will also give you maintenance advice tailored to your property, helping you keep your plumbing in top shape long after the job’s done. With Curran, you’re not just getting a quick fix; you’re getting ongoing support from a local, family-owned business that truly cares about long-term results.

Benny Oldfield2024-09-16 These guys are the business. They are professional and cheap and does not charge anything if they don't do anything (or if you do not want them to do anything when you get your problem explained). They are also extremely friendly. I cannot recommend them enough. I needed a blocked drain fixed and they did that for $93 (in about 1 1/2 hours with no callout fee). They are going to send someone around with a camera tomorrow (no charge) to find the actual problem with the drain. It will be up to me if I then need/want them to do anything else. Holly McEvoy2024-09-12 Sarah our aircon technician was AMAZING, so kind and professional! I will be using Curran for all of our home needs the team are so helpful and speedy!

Absolute first class service from Nathan the plumber assigned to my job. Highly recommend. Rachael Peedom2024-08-29 Exceptional customer service. Outstanding knowledge. 100% commitment on finding a solution for the customer. sumguy762024-08-27 After our hot water stopped working, I called Curran Plumbing who organised a plumber to come out the same day and assess our problem. Within 1/2hr of reviewing the issue, Jake diagnosed the problem and gave us a thorough explanation of the issue and what we could do get the hot water back up and running. He was friendly, professional, thorough and quick. 5 star service and quality…thanks again!!!
