Pipe Repairs & Replacement
From a Single Split to a Full Replacement
Pipes usually give way under strain: the pressure surge after a water outage, frost on an exposed roof line, or galvanised steel that has corroded from the inside over decades. Older houses in suburbs like Parkmore, Hyde Park and Illovo are the ones we most often find still on galvanised supply pipes.
For a single burst, we cut out the damaged section and fit new pipe. When the whole system is tired, we quote a replacement in modern materials and book the stages for times that suit you, such as early slots or days when someone is home. You approve the quote on your phone and see photos of each stage as it's finished.

Local Causes
Why These Faults Turn Up in Sandton
Some local conditions make this kind of job more frequent than you might expect:
Galvanised Pipes in Older Houses
Many houses in Sandton were plumbed decades ago with galvanised steel, which corrodes from the inside. You notice rusty water after a shutdown and a shower upstairs that has lost its strength. We can replace the old runs section by section, with each stage booked around your diary.
Supply Cuts That Upset the Morning Routine
Joburg Water and Rand Water shutdowns in Sandton seldom arrive at a convenient hour. The bigger risk comes later, when supply returns full of air and pressure that can unseat a valve or crack a tired joint. We repair what the surge damaged, and a JoJo tank with a pump keeps showers running through the next cut.
Winter Frost on Exposed Roof Lines
Pipes running across the roof to solar panels or a geyser have no shelter on a clear July night. A split often only shows mid-morning as a drip at the gutter. We cut out the cracked length, fit new pipe and lag the line with insulation.
Leaks Buried Under Lawns and Paving
Pool plumbing, irrigation zones and long garden feeds lie underground all over Sandton. Clay soil swells and shrinks with the seasons, and joints work loose with nothing showing on top. A rising municipal bill is often the only clue, and leak detection pins down the spot.
