Plumbing in Western Cape

The Western Cape is a winter-rainfall region, and the Cape Town drought of 2017 to 2018 permanently changed how households and businesses think about water. Rainwater harvesting tanks, greywater systems, well points and boreholes became common, and many properties still rely on them alongside municipal supply. Along the coast, salty air corrodes exposed fittings and geyser components faster than inland. Wine estates, packhouses and Garden Route guesthouses need irrigation, pumps and hot water systems, while Cape Town's offices, restaurants and sectional title blocks generate steady work in drainage, geysers and water-saving retrofits.
