Leak Detection
Non-invasive leak detection utilizes acoustic sensors, tracer gas tests, and thermal imaging to locate hidden water leaks inside walls, under paving, or beneath foundation slabs. Finding leaks early prevents costly structural foundation erosion and lowers excessive municipal water accounts.
Burst Pipe Repairs
Burst pipe repair immediately halts active water loss by replacing cracked, corroded, or ruptured water supply lines. Our technicians replace damaged sections using reinforced copper or High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) piping designed to withstand pressure surges.
Drain Cleaning
Blocked drain cleaning clears obstructions caused by tree roots, grease accumulation, soap scum, and foreign objects inside domestic or commercial waste lines. We restore full gravity flow using motorized drain augers and specialized mechanical cutting heads.
Hydro Jetting & High-Pressure Drain Cleaning
Hydro jetting cleans drainage interiors using high-pressure water streams operating up to 4,000 PSI (Pounds per Square Inch). This eco-friendly process strips stubborn grease deposits, scale buildup, and heavy sludge off pipe walls without harsh chemical treatments.
Sewer Line Repairs
Sewer repair restores crushed, cracked, or misaligned main drainage pipes carrying wastewater away from your property. We perform localized pipe excavation or trenchless repair options to restore structural integrity to underground lines.
Bathroom & Kitchen Plumbing Renovations
Renovation plumbing reorganizes, installs, and connects new water supply lines, waste traps, sinks, showers, freestanding baths, and toilets during property remodels. We coordinate directly with general contractors to ensure precise fixture positioning and pipe rough-ins.

frequently asked questions
What should I ask before hiring a Hillcrest plumber?
Essential questions to ask include
- Are your technicians PIRB-certified and compliant with SANS standards?
- Do you provide a fixed, written quote before opening tools or cutting pipes?
- Will you issue a PIRB Certificate of Compliance upon completion of major work?
- What warranty or guarantee do you provide on parts and labor?
- Are you fully insured against accidental property damage during repairs?
What causes sudden drops in water pressure across Hillcrest properties?
Sudden water pressure loss typically stems from municipal line throttling, a faulty Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV) on your main line, mineral scale blockages inside older galvanized pipes, or hidden underground leaks.
How much does it cost to replace a burst geyser in Hillcrest?
Geyser replacement costs vary based on tank capacity (100L, 150L, or 200L), energy efficiency rating, and whether structural modifications or new SANS-compliant safety valves and drip trays are required. We provide full upfront quotes prior to installation.
What is the difference between standard drain cabling and hydro jetting?
Standard drain cabling (drain snaking) uses a mechanical steel cable to punch through solid blockages, whereas high-pressure hydro jetting uses pressurized water streams (up to 4,000 PSI) to completely flush away grease buildup, roots, and sludge from the inner pipe walls.
