Good to know

Questions we get every week.

My geyser burst. What do I do right now?

Switch the geyser off at the DB board, close the cold-water supply to the geyser or the main stopcock, and open a hot tap to release pressure. Then call us on 034 980 0734. The line is answered all hours.

Do you work outside Vryheid?

Yes. Our head office is in Vryheid, and we have branches in Newcastle, Pietermaritzburg and Durban. Call the office to book, wherever you are.

Solar or gas: which geyser should I pick?

It depends on your roof, how much hot water you use and your budget. Solar uses free sunshine, and gas keeps working during load-shedding. We'll look at your setup and recommend the right one.

Will I get a certificate of compliance?

We're a PIRB and IOPSA member, and work like geyser installations needs a plumbing Certificate of Compliance. Ask us about it when you book.

Do you only do plumbing?

Plumbing is what we do. Along with general plumbing, we do geyser replacements, solar geysers, gas installations and roof sealing.
