Plumbing in George

George is the main service centre of the Garden Route, wedged between the Outeniqua Mountains and the coast. The town has faced serious water restrictions during past droughts, and many residents responded with rainwater tanks and water-saving fittings that need periodic servicing. Rapid residential growth means plenty of new-build plumbing on estates, while older homes in the town centre need pipe and geyser upgrades. Golf resorts, guest houses and holiday homes in nearby Wilderness and Herold's Bay bring seasonal demand, and the hospital, schools and the regional airport add commercial and institutional work. Inland farms rely on boreholes and pumps.
