Selling in Somerset West? You need a plumbing certificate
Somerset West falls under the City of Cape Town, and section 14(1) of the City’s Water By-law (2010) requires the seller to submit a certificate of compliance from a registered plumber before transfer. We inspect the whole installation, give you a written list of anything that fails, fix it if you want us to, and issue the certificate through PIRB.
Geysers and solar in the City of Cape Town
The City’s by-law limits geyser replacement to accredited plumbers and requires solar water heating to comply with SANS 10106. We install both to standard, which is also what your insurer’s assessor checks after a burst.
Why a Stellenbosch plumber for Somerset West
Because we do both trades. A solar geyser that stops working is often a plumbing fault, and a plumbing job is the best moment to add solar or a heat pump. One team that understands both saves you a second call-out. We are honest about distance too: for a burst pipe at 2am, we are twenty minutes away, not two.
