Burst pipe repairs in Cape Town
A burst pipe may be visible, behind a surface or below ground. Tell Bobby where the water is appearing and whether the flow is ongoing so he can discuss the right next step.
Visible damage and hidden pipe problems
A split exposed pipe is easier to describe than water appearing through paving or a wall. In either case, a wet patch alone does not show the exact route or depth of a pipe. Bobby’s repair and underground leak services provide a starting point for discussing investigation and access.
Describe the affected part of the property
Explain whether the water is inside, outside, near an appliance or around a boundary. Mention which taps still work, whether the pressure changed and whether the problem began after other work. Photographs taken from a safe position can show the surroundings and access.
Agree the repair scope
Ask how the damaged section will be accessed, which pipework will be repaired or replaced, and whether opening a wall or paving is necessary. Establish what making good is included in the quotation. Investigation and the final repair may require different steps.
Urgent damage or a planned repair?
If water is continuing to damage the property, use the phone route. For a small contained problem, a WhatsApp enquiry can describe the job. Confirm the applicable charge, availability and any materials before accepting work.
Questions about this enquiry
Can a hidden burst pipe be quoted from a photo?
A photo helps explain the problem but may not establish the location or repair scope. Bobby can discuss whether an assessment is needed.
What should I include in the enquiry?
Include your suburb, where water is appearing, when it began, whether flow continues and any access restrictions.
