Experts in Installation and repair
Within the plumbing industry, a geyser is probably one of the most common things that come to mind when thinking about plumbing. Although to many homeowners the laws and regulations which are set out by the plumbing industry in South Africa are unknown, there are very specific regulations that have to be abided by when working on a hot water cylinder (HWC). The main reason that any professional and reputable company will follow these regulations when working on such a system is to guarantee the safety of the people and to make sure that the homeowner gets professional service and guarantees when work is being undertaken at their premises.

This is an everyday occurrence where a client receives a very high water bill at the end of the month indicating massive water usage for that month, of which the client has no knowledge.
Leaks can occur on the simplest of places where you can spot it easily for eg.in the roof causing a wet dripping ceiling, a burst pipe outside, above ground, or a tap not closing properly. But then there are leaks that you only learn about when you receive your monthly water bill. In most cases after a inspection is done, leaks like this are found hidden underground, in walls, behind tiles, under baths and showers etc. Our wide selection of services includes leak detection and we consider ourselves specialists in this field. We use all different methods of leak detection including gas, acoustic and thermal. Making us the preferred company to source and repair those difficult leaks
Blocked drains could become quit a messy job. If your sewage system gets blocked for the first time in a few years, it is most probably a normal blockage and once unblocked and cleaned, should be fine for another few years, however, if you experience this on a regular basis for example once a month or every 2 months, tree roots are most probably the cause of the blockage in your sewage system. Tree roots can cause extensive damage to your underground drainage and could even cause the pipe to collapse. In some cases the damage and infestation of tree roots is so bad that a piece or line of underground pipe has to be replaced completely and the roots destroyed in that area
Many people do not understand how serious the consequences of a wrongly installed geyser can be. If an installation does not comply with the standards set out in SANS10254 and cannot pass a COC inspection or you suspect that there might be compliance issues with your geyser installation, call us and we will send out a qualified technician to give you peace of mind. Unlike many people think, plumbing is not just about drains & pipes. There are strict rules and regulations within the industry that we as professional qualified plumbers must abide by at all times, all geyser installations must be done according to SANS standards. If these are not understood by your plumber it means that he cannot guarantee the safety of your household.
Sounds in this category can be anything from banging pipes to hi-pitched noises. This is mostly caused by loose pipes in the roof or wall, or pipes that are improperly anchored or saddled. High water pressure which is very common in some areas could be the cause. An easy solution to cure this problem would be to anchor loose pipes properly with PVC anchors or pipe straps. This can also be related to the old issue of water hammering where in this case usually happens when a tap is opened or closed to fast, the water in the pipe stops suddenly causing the pipe or tap to vibrate rapidly which causes the hammering. Unbalanced systems could also contribute to this issue. There are a few methods of solving this issue.
