Emergency plumber in Gqeberha
Burst pipes, a geyser letting go, or water where water should never be. Phone us, shut the water off, and we'll get a team to you.
Water damage gets worse by the minute. The fastest thing you can do is close the main water valve and phone us on 082 624 2398 — while you're on the phone we're already working out which team is closest to you.
We've been doing this in Gqeberha for over 20 years. Most of the calls we get are burst pipes in older homes, geysers that finally give up, and blocked drains that back up into a shower at the worst possible time. None of it surprises us.
We work on residential places, complexes and commercial buildings across Port Elizabeth — including after-hours and weekend call-outs.

- A geyser overflowing or water pouring from the roof
- Drains gurgling or backing up into a shower or bath
- Suddenly low water pressure across the whole house
- Damp patches spreading on a wall or floor

Emergency plumbing — what people ask
Honest answers, no sales pitch.
How quickly can you get to me in an emergency?
It depends on where you are and where our teams are working, but we get to most of Gqeberha the same day. Phone 082 624 2398 and we'll give you an honest time on the call — not a number we can't keep.
What should I do before you arrive?
Close the main water valve (usually at the meter or where the pipe enters the property), switch off the geyser's electricity, and move what you can away from the water. Wet carpets and furniture cost more to replace than the pipe does.
Do you charge more after hours?
After-hours and weekend call-outs carry an extra charge because a team is being pulled out of hours. We tell you what that is before we come out, so there are no surprises.
