Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do when a pipe bursts?
Close your main shut-off valve immediately (usually at the water meter), then call us on 083 861 6718, we're available 24/7.
How do you find a leak without breaking walls?
We isolate sections of the plumbing, test pressure and narrow the leak down to the smallest possible area before any opening-up, so disruption stays minimal.
Will you repair the wall or floor after fixing the leak?
Yes, because we also plaster, tile and paint, we can make good properly instead of leaving you with a hole and a second contractor to find.
Why do pipes burst in winter?
Bloemfontein's freezing winter nights expand water inside pipes, exposed or older pipes are most at risk. Insulating exposed piping prevents most winter bursts.
Is a small drip really worth fixing?
Yes, a slow leak wastes thousands of litres a year and often causes hidden damp damage that costs far more than the repair.
