Plumbing in Somerset West

Somerset West has grown rapidly into a town of security estates, retirement villages and lifestyle complexes at the foot of the Helderberg mountains. Much of the newer housing relies on body corporate maintenance plans, so leaking geysers, blocked sewer lines and pressure problems are often handled through managing agents. Many retirees prefer heat pumps and solar geysers to cut electricity costs, and water-wise gardens with wellpoints remain popular after the Western Cape drought. Closer to the coast at Strand and Gordon's Bay, the south-easter carries salt spray that corrodes taps, outside fittings and solar geyser frames, so stainless or brass components are worth the extra cost.
