GEYSER FRIDAY 🔧

Today’s job: burst geyser assessment and replacement.

Before any replacement starts, the important steps are simple but critical:

✅ Isolate the water
✅ Isolate the electrics
✅ Take clear photos
✅ Record the geyser details
✅ Prepare the insurance/report paperwork
✅ Replace the geyser safely and correctly

A burst geyser is stressful for any homeowner, but proper documentation makes a big difference — especially when insurance or body corporate approval is involved.

Back at Durban Girls' College this week, different job, same school 🏫

The school is building new netball courts on the main field, which means proper drainage needs to be planned in before the courts go down.

Our job: trace and access the existing underground stormwater sump running from the main field out to the road, so the new court drainage can be tied in correctly.

It's the kind of work nobody sees once it's finished, buried under grass, brick paving, and eventually a brand-new netball court, but get it wrong and you've got flooding the first time it rains hard.

Heritage school, modern build, plumbing that has to outlast both.

End of an era 🔧

We fitted what may well be one of the last Latco geyser valves in the country today, pulled from the back of our own stock. They're no longer manufactured, and there are none left to buy anywhere in South Africa.

For decades, Latco valves were the quiet workhorse of South African geysers, simple, reliable, and built to last. If you've got an older geyser, there's a good chance one of these has been protecting it for years.

From here on, replacements move to the modern equivalents, same job, different badge.

Another job done, another happy customer (review at the end of the video 👇).

If your geyser is older and you're not sure what's fitted on it, it's worth a quick check — we'll tell you straight whether it needs attention now or can wait.

⚠️ A cracked or broken toilet is a serious hazard.

We see it more often than people realise — chipped bowls, cracked cisterns, suites held together with tape or silicone.

A cistern can fail without warning and dump 9+ litres across your floor in seconds. Broken porcelain is sharp. Slow leaks rot floors and inflate your water bill quietly every month.

Two replacements this week — both back to safe, clean, and properly sealed.

If yours has a crack, a wobble, or a constant trickle, don't wait for it to fail.

Behind the scenes at Durban Girls' College 🏊

We've just added two extra 5,000L tanks to the existing pool backwash recovery system, total storage now sits at 25,000 litres.

Here's how it works:

When the pool backwashes, that water doesn't go to the drain. It's captured into the tank system, where it's held for a couple of days so the sediment can settle out naturally. From there it's pumped through filtration and returned straight back to the pool.

On a pool this size, that's a serious volume of water saved every single week, water that would otherwise be lost down the drain.

Clever system. Proper engineering. Quietly doing the right thing.

This is the kind of commercial plumbing work we love, practical, water-wise, and built to last.

Today was a proper geyser day — 4 geyser jobs in one day.

Burst geyser replaced, PRV valves changed, pipework redone, and an after-hours call-out to another burst geyser that’s being replaced first thing in the morning.

If your geyser is leaking, overflowing, not heating, or your pressure valve is giving trouble — don’t leave it until it becomes a bigger problem.

Not always the glamorous part of a project — but it’s the part that matters.

Proud to be involved in the progress at Harvest Church and to help keep the build moving forward.

Busy morning on our ongoing Umdloti project.

Today the Dudley’s team installed an outdoor shower and started tying the shower drainage into the main drainage line. We’re also digging, fitting and extending a 150mm stormwater pipe as part of the site works.

Big shoutout to David, one of our top plumbers, especially when it comes to drainage work. Getting the underground plumbing right takes experience — correct falls, solid connections, and neat planning before everything gets closed up.

Dudley’s Plumbers handles:
- New build plumbing
- Drainage and stormwater
- Outdoor showers
- Bathroom and kitchen plumbing
- General plumbing maintenance
