Based in Cape Town, serving Cape Town's northern suburbs.
Northline Plumbing is a Durbanville-based team covering Cape Town's northern suburbs. Geysers, drains, leaks, bathrooms: the work most homes need most often, done by registered plumbers who send you a photo of the job when it is finished.
We run a two-hour arrival window for booked jobs and same-day call-outs for emergencies. You get a WhatsApp when we are on our way.
Quotes are fixed once agreed. If the job changes, you hear about it before the cost does.

Tell us what is happening. For a burst pipe, turn off the stopcock first; we will talk you through it.
A registered plumber assesses the problem and tells you what it will cost before starting.
Repairs done to SANS standards with quality fittings, and the area left clean.
Certificate of Compliance for geysers and property sales, and an invoice your insurer will accept.
“Quick, tidy and the WhatsApp updates with photos were brilliant.”
“Replaced our geyser on a Sunday morning. Fair price for the day.”
“Finally a plumber who answers the phone.”
Turn off the main stopcock first, usually at the street boundary or where the water pipe enters the house, then switch off the geyser at the DB board so it does not run dry. Then call us; we will tell you how soon we can be there.
Usually yes, most household policies cover geyser bursts and the resulting damage, but insurers require the replacement to be done by a PIRB-registered plumber with a Certificate of Compliance. Do not remove the old geyser before the claim is logged.
A plumber registered with the Plumbing Industry Registration Board, which means they are qualified to do the work and to issue Certificates of Compliance. Ask for the registration number; a registered plumber will give it without hesitation.
In most municipalities yes. Cape Town, for example, requires a plumbing CoC on transfer confirming the water installation meets the by-laws. We inspect, fix what fails and issue the certificate.
A call-out fee covers travel and the first period of diagnosis, and the repair is quoted before any work starts. Emergency after-hours call-outs cost more, and we tell you the amount when you phone.
Most often a failing element or thermostat, sometimes water on the electrical connections. Switch the geyser off at the DB board and call us; running it while it trips can damage the geyser further.
