One contractor clears, inspects and reports the line.

Four jetting trucks, and the plant to back them

Every unit on a job is ours. That is the difference between a start date and an estimate - there is no hire queue between you and the work.

Four jetting trucks, all ours

High-pressure jetting for sewer and stormwater lines, root cutting and routine cleaning. More than one job at a time, and a spare when one is in for service.

Water and sewer pump, for hire

Over-pumping and bypass while a line is out of service, on its own or with a crew. Ask about availability.

Our own workshop

Maintenance and repairs happen in-house, so a truck down for a part does not wait on anyone else's schedule.

What we are called out for

Jetting and pipe cleaning

Blockages, fat and root ingress, silt and debris. High-pressure jetting clears the line and leaves it in a state where a camera can actually see the pipe wall - which is why cleaning and inspection belong in the same visit.

CCTV pipeline inspection

A recorded survey of the line with video, still images and a written report locating what was found and where. Municipal and consulting clients get something they can attach to a repair instruction.

Pump hire - water and sewer

Over-pumping and bypass while a line is isolated for repair or replacement. Available on hire on its own, or with an ARPCO crew.

Municipal, consulting and industrial work

Most of what we do is sewer and stormwater for municipalities and consulting engineers, with industrial sites in between.

This is the whole line, not a photograph of it.

One continuous recording from our own crawler, played by your scroll. Watch the distance at the top of the picture climb as the camera travels: every finding is recorded at a measured position in the line, so a repair can be pointed at rather than described.

What the camera actually sees

Every one of these is a frame from an ARPCO inspection. Pick one.

Four steps, and you keep the record

  • A sewer manhole overflowing, water running over the whole cover and away across the ground
  • A garden verge standing under water against a palisade fence

Tell us the site

Tell us where it is and what the line is doing. You get a realistic time back, not an optimistic one.

Measured, not estimated

A gradient read off the camera's own telemetry is a number you can put in a report. An opinion formed at the manhole is not.

Every inspection comes back with the footage, the still images and a written record of what was found and where along the line. That is what a consulting engineer needs to specify a repair, and what a municipality needs to justify one.
