Frequently asked questions about plumbers
How much does a plumber cost per hour?
Plumber rates typically range from R350 to R750 per hour depending on the job complexity, time of day, and your location. Emergency call-outs and after-hours work usually cost more.
Do I need to supply my own materials when hiring a plumber?
Most plumbers supply all the materials needed and include them in the quote. If you have specific brand preferences, let the plumber know when requesting a quote.
How quickly can a plumber come out for an emergency?
Many plumbers offer same-day or next-day emergency call-outs. Response time depends on the plumber's availability and your location — booking through Echo shows real-time availability so you can find someone fast.
What jobs can a plumber help with?
Plumbers handle burst pipes, leaking taps, blocked drains, geyser installation and repair, toilet repairs, and full bathroom and kitchen plumbing installations. They also do compliance certificates for insurance purposes.
Do I need to be home when the plumber arrives?
Generally yes, especially for indoor work. If you cannot be there, arrange for a trusted adult to give access. Some plumbers can assess external or easy-access issues without you present.
How do I know if a plumber is qualified?
In South Africa, plumbers must be registered with the Institute of Plumbing South Africa (IOPSA). Always ask for proof of registration before authorizing major work.
