Hi, I'm Jess. Tell me what's going wrong at home today.
My geyser is leaking and keeps tripping the power.
Sounds like a burst geyser: that needs urgent attention. Start by switching off the geyser at your DB and turning off your water at the main, then we can get you connected with a plumber right away.

How it works
How much does a plumber cost in South Africa?

Most jobs start with a call-out fee from around R450, which covers the Pro's travel and time to assess and quote. If you choose not to proceed, that's all you pay. Standard repairs and drain unblocking typically come in at about R750 including the first hour of labour, plus materials, while certified gas repairs start at roughly R850 and gas installations at around R1,450. Jobs needing specialised equipment are usually flat-priced, with drain camera work at about R1,850 and leak detection at roughly R1,950, and a full geyser installation at around R2,850 in labour. These are estimates, and your Pro confirms the exact price upfront.

Can I get an emergency plumber after hours through Kandua?

Yes, many pros on Kandua take after-hours and weekend work. As a guide, emergency and after-hours pricing typically runs at about 1.5–2× the standard labour rate. Confirm the after-hours policy and exact pricing with your Pro before they head to your address.

How does Kandua vet its plumbers?

Every pro on Kandua is vetted before they can quote on jobs, and reviews come from verified customers, not anonymous ratings. Jess, Kandua's AI home companion, helps you scope the job properly so you're matched with a plumber who does that type of work.

How do I get an accurate quote from a plumber?

Describe the problem clearly, what's happening, where, and since when, and add photos or a short video if you can capture them safely. The more accurately the job is scoped upfront, the closer the quote will be to the final bill and the fewer surprises on the day.

Emmanuel has a trustworthy team and they did a great job of their assigned tasks. He often checked in to make sure it was going to plan.
