Burst Pipe & Leak Repair Claremont | 24/7 Emergency Pipe Fix

About Our Leaks & Pipe Repairs Services in Claremont

Claremont is one of Cape Town's most desirable Southern Suburbs, known for Cavendish Square shopping centre, tree-lined streets, and well-maintained homes. Many properties in Claremont date from the early to mid-1900s, with original copper pipework that has served well but is now showing its age. Mature oak trees along the streets look beautiful but send roots deep into the ground where they can infiltrate and crack underground water pipes.

Abacas Solution has been providing leak detection and pipe repair in Claremont for over 25 years. We regularly work on the suburb's gracious older homes where hidden leaks behind thick plaster walls require specialist detection. The combination of large mature gardens, old copper pipe systems, and the Southern Suburbs' higher rainfall means water-related plumbing problems are common throughout the year.

Claremont properties command premium prices, and water damage from undetected leaks can significantly reduce value. If you notice damp walls, a musty smell, or an unexplained rise in your water bill, call 067 071 9472 for a professional leak detection assessment.

As part of licensed plumbers in Claremont, we bring over 25 years of hands-on experience to every job in Claremont.

Frequently Asked Questions

How fast can you respond to a burst pipe in Claremont?

We treat burst pipes as emergencies and aim to reach Claremont within 30-45 minutes during business hours. We operate 24/7. Call 067 071 9472 immediately.

Can tree roots damage my pipes in Claremont?

Absolutely. Claremont's mature oak and pine trees send roots deep underground where they can crack, infiltrate, and block water and sewer pipes. We detect root damage using acoustic and electronic equipment.

Will leak detection damage my walls?

No. Our electronic detection equipment finds leaks behind walls without breaking them open. We only access the wall at the precise leak point, minimising repair work to your Claremont home's finishes.

How much does pipe replacement cost in Claremont?

Costs depend on the scope -- from a single section repair to whole-house repiping. We provide detailed upfront quotes after inspecting your property. A repipe eliminates recurring leak repair costs.

What should I do if a pipe bursts?

Turn off your main water supply immediately, then call 067 071 9472. If water is near electrical outlets, switch off electricity at the main board.
