Plumbing Certificates of Compliance
In Johannesburg you need a water installation Certificate of Compliance to transfer a property, and the geyser is where most houses fail — missing drip trays, no vacuum breakers, overflow pipes going nowhere. We inspect, give you an itemised list of what actually fails, fix it, and issue the certificate.
As PIRB-registered plumbers we issue the CoC ourselves — no middleman, no waiting on a third party while your transfer sits with the attorneys. Most inspections and remedial work are wrapped up within a couple of days.
What we do
- Pre-sale plumbing inspections with an itemised report
- CoC for property transfers (City of Johannesburg & Mogale City)
- Geyser compliance: drip trays, vacuum breakers, safety valves
- Remedial work quoted before it's done — fix only what fails
- Certificate issued the day the work passes
Straight answers
Is a plumbing CoC required to sell my house?
In the City of Johannesburg, yes — a water installation compliance certificate is required for transfer, and most transfer attorneys won't lodge without it. Estates and banks increasingly ask for it elsewhere too.
What fails most often?
The geyser installation, almost every time: no drip tray, missing vacuum breakers, or an overflow that discharges into the ceiling. Usually a morning's work to put right.
