Who We Are
The Plumbing Company Behind a Gauteng-Wide Network
MacRamos Plumbing is the parent company of a group of local plumbing websites across the province. This site is the hub: it explains what we do, lists the cities we cover and links to every local MacRamos site.
Our plumbers handle burst pipes, geysers, blocked drains, hidden leaks and backup water tanks for homes, complexes, offices and factories. The way we work is simple: we tell you what is wrong, give you a fixed price and only start when you agree.
We do not charge a call-out fee during the day. After hours, a surcharge applies, and we tell you the amount before sending anyone. That way there are no surprises on the invoice.

Why Gauteng Plumbing Fails
Different cities, same climate and much the same infrastructure. These conditions are behind a large share of our call-outs across the province:
When the Municipal Water Comes Back On
Most callers in Gauteng have lived through a reservoir running dry or a mains repair that shuts a whole suburb off. The cut is the nuisance; the reconnection is what breaks things. Air hammers through the lines, a ball valve sticks open, a tired joint in the roof lets go. We repair what the surge damaged, fit a pressure-reducing valve where the supply runs hot, and can add a tank with its own pump so the household carries on during the next shutdown.
Hard Water and the Geyser Element
The water across the province carries enough calcium to coat a geyser element in a few years. A scaled element takes longer to heat, the thermostat starts misbehaving and the sacrificial anode is eaten away faster. A geyser service that cleans out the sediment and checks the anode costs far less than a burst cylinder in the ceiling.
Summer Cloudbursts and Overwhelmed Drains
A late-afternoon storm can drop a month's rain in an hour. Gutters overflow, gully traps fill with sand and jacaranda leaves, and stormwater that sneaks into the sewer pushes it up through the lowest manhole on the property. We clear the line with a drain machine or a jetter and look for where the rainwater is getting in.
Clay Ground That Moves Under the Pipes
Much of Gauteng is built on clay that swells when the rains come and shrinks in the dry season. Buried pipes move with it until a coupling pulls apart. If every tap is closed and the meter in your area still turns, leak detection finds the spot before anyone starts digging up paving.
Leak, Flood or No Hot Water? Phone Us Before It Spreads
Turn off the stopcock at the meter, switch off the geyser at the board if it is involved, and call 082 550 3306. That line takes calls day and night for every city on this site. For quotes and planned jobs in office hours, use 087 700 7781. Daytime visits carry no call-out fee; after hours a surcharge applies, and you hear the amount before anyone is sent.
