Plumbing in Cape Town
Cape Town's plumbing market was reshaped by the 2017–2018 drought, when the threat of Day Zero pushed thousands of households to install rainwater tanks, greywater systems, wellpoints and boreholes. The City of Cape Town's Water By-law also requires a plumbing compliance certificate before a property can be transferred, so sellers regularly call plumbers to check geysers, valves, stormwater connections and water meters. Older homes in the southern suburbs and City Bowl still have galvanised pipes due for replacement, while the Atlantic Seaboard's salt air shortens the life of exposed fittings. Restaurants, hotels and apartment blocks add steady demand for drain and geyser work.
Typical plumbing supplies requests in the area come from:
- Homes: burst pipes, leaking taps, blocked drains, geyser replacements and bathroom upgrades
- Complexes: body corporate maintenance, shared sewer lines, water meters and unit geysers
- Hospitality: large hot water systems, guest bathrooms, pool plumbing and backup water storage
- Restaurants: grease traps, blocked kitchen drains, commercial hot water and gas connections
- Offices: washroom fixtures, urinals, hot water units and planned maintenance contracts
- Retail: mall washrooms, food court drainage, water meters and after-hours call-outs
