Plumbing in KwaZulu-Natal
KwaZulu-Natal's humid subtropical coast gets heavy summer rain, and the April 2022 floods showed how quickly stormwater systems, retaining walls and municipal pipelines can fail. In eThekwini, ageing bulk infrastructure has left areas such as the northern suburbs facing repeated water interruptions, so storage tanks and pumps are in high demand. Sea air speeds up corrosion of geysers, taps and exposed pipework along the Durban and North and South Coast strip. Inland, Pietermaritzburg and the Midlands have colder winters, while sugar cane farms, Durban port logistics and coastal holiday accommodation create commercial plumbing work.
Typical blocked drain and drain cleaning requests in the area come from:
- Homes: households deal with blocked kitchen sinks, toilets and root-filled outside drains
- Complexes: body corporates schedule drain jetting for shared sewer lines and manholes
- Hospitality: hotels and guesthouses need fast drain cleaning so guest bathrooms stay in use
- Factories: factories clear process drains and stormwater lines clogged with silt and residue
- Farms: farms clear blocked septic lines, dairy drains and farmhouse sewer pipes
- Retail: shopping centres jet food court drains and clear blocked public toilets
