Martmarie was great, their service was good.

HesmariePest Control · Jul 2026

I urgently needed a new automated entry gate. The previous one was old and rusted. Roelof Bruwer (RJ Projects) did an amazing job. The weather did prevent him from sticking to the original schedule but he kept me updated. He made a new gate and installed it. He even fixed the level of the track. It runs smoothly... beter than the previous gate. I would definitely recommend him.

Frequently Asked Questions

What areas do you serve?

We serve the entire Paarl area and nearby suburbs. Our local network allows us to connect you with suitable professionals familiar with properties and service requirements in Paarl.

How long does geyser installation take?

A standard electric geyser replacement is typically completed the same day. Gas geyser installations take 1–2 days to allow for gas line work and COC testing. Solar geyser installations may take a full day.

Do you install gas geysers?

Yes. Gas geyser installation is performed by SAQCC-registered gas fitters. A gas compliance certificate (COC) is issued after installation and testing — as required by law.

What size geyser do I need?

A 100-litre geyser suits 1–2 people, 150 litres is ideal for 3–4 people, and 200 litres suits larger households or homes with high hot water demand. We advise based on your household size during the quotation.

Is a compliance certificate required for a new geyser?

Yes. South African law requires a plumbing compliance certificate (COC) for any new geyser installation. We issue this as part of every installation — essential for insurance and property transfers.

Can you replace a burst or failed geyser urgently?

Yes, same-day geyser replacement is available. WhatsApp 060 985 5047 and we will connect you with a licensed plumber who can assess and replace the geyser as quickly as possible.

Does insurance cover geyser replacement?

Most home insurance policies cover burst geysers, but not wear-and-tear failures. Check your policy for "geyser" or "hot water cylinder" cover. You will usually need a plumbing COC and proof of installation by a qualified plumber to claim — both of which we provide as part of every installation.

How much does it cost to replace a geyser in South Africa?

Geyser replacement costs vary by size and type. A standard 150-litre electric geyser installation typically ranges from R8,000 to R12,000 including the unit, installation, and compliance certificate. Gas and solar geysers may cost more depending on piping and setup. We provide free quotes with no obligation.

Should I choose an electric, gas, solar or heat-pump geyser?

It depends on budget and usage: a standard electric geyser is cheapest to install, a gas geyser gives instant hot water and lower running costs, and solar or heat-pump systems cost more up front but cut running costs over time. We will talk you through what suits your home and hot-water needs.

How much does a geyser cost in Paarl?

A like-for-like electric geyser replacement (100–200L) typically runs R6,500–R16,000, solar systems R22,000–R55,000 and heat pumps R18,000–R45,000 — supplied and installed. Roof access and system type drive the price.

How fast can you replace a burst geyser?

Burst and leaking geysers are urgent, so we aim to get a contractor to you the same or next day to limit water damage and restore hot water.

Do you install geysers in Pearl Valley and Val de Vie?

Yes — we install and replace geysers (electric, gas, solar and heat-pump) for homes across Pearl Valley, Val de Vie and the wider Paarl estate area, following each estate's access procedures.
