Plumbing in Durban
Durban's warm, humid climate is hard on plumbing. Salt air from the Indian Ocean corrodes geyser drip trays, outside taps and metal fittings, and heavy summer downpours test stormwater drains and gutters, as the destructive April 2022 floods showed. eThekwini Municipality's water network has an ageing backlog, so residents often deal with supply interruptions and install backup tanks with pressure pumps. Older homes on the Berea and in Glenwood still have original pipework, while beachfront hotels, flats and restaurants need reliable hot water and drain maintenance. The port and industrial areas around the south basin add demand for commercial and factory plumbing.

Typical geyser repairs requests in the area come from:
- Homes: homeowners fix cold water, tripping elements and dripping overflow pipes
- Complexes: body corporates and tenants arrange repairs to geysers in individual units
- Hospitality: hotels and guesthouses repair geysers quickly to avoid guest complaints
- Restaurants: restaurants need fast repairs so kitchens and sculleries keep running
- Factories: factories repair geysers serving ablution blocks and canteens
- Offices: offices repair small geysers serving kitchens and staff showers
