Geyser replacement and new copper feed

The problem
A 15-year-old geyser burst overnight and soaked the ceiling of the passage.
What we did
Isolated the water, stripped the old unit, installed a new geyser with a fresh copper feed, drip tray and vacuum breakers.
The outcome
Hot water back the same day, ceiling dried and repaired the following week.

DB board rewire after repeated tripping

The problem
The main earth leakage tripped every time the kettle and geyser ran together.
What we did
Traced the fault to a damaged geyser circuit, split the load over new breakers and relabelled the whole board.
The outcome
No further tripping, and the owner can now find the right breaker in seconds.

Exterior repaint with crack repair

The problem
Sun-faded walls with hairline cracks letting damp through on the west side.
What we did
High-pressure wash, crack repair, sealing and two coats of exterior acrylic, plus gutters and fascia.
The outcome
A finish that still looks new after a full summer of Highveld storms.

MaintenanceMidrand · April 2026

Gate, hinge and lock repairs

The problem
A sagging pedestrian gate, three sticking interior doors and a broken cupboard hinge.
What we did
Reset the gate post, replaced hinges and locks, planed and adjusted the doors.
The outcome
The whole snag list closed in one visit instead of three separate callouts.
