How to Choose a Plumber You can Trust – And Why Gauteng Chooses Alpha Plumbing
Pipes Are Pipes. Tools Are Tools. But People? People Are Everything.
In Gauteng, there’s no shortage of plumbers. But there’s a world of difference between “someone who can fix it” and a plumber you can trust — in an emergency, for long-term maintenance, and for projects that demand skill and care.
At Alpha Plumbing, we’ve built more than a business. We’ve built a family—and some of our team have been with us for over 30 years. From seasoned pros like Herbert and Alfred to rising stars like Dewald, our people are why customers across Johannesburg and Pretoria trust us to get it right the first time.
"Skill gets you started — but consistency is what builds trust. In plumbing and in life, that’s what really matters."
A Plumber You Can Trust has a Purpose – Serving Gauteng Homes and Businesses
Plumbing touches every sustainability goal: clean water, safe sanitation, and job creation. That’s why our service is about more than just repairs. We may not have global reach — but we do have purpose. And when we restore plumbing here at home, we contribute to something far greater: life uninterrupted, for everyone.
"Plumbing is our Profession. Uninterrupted Living is our Purpose. Sustainability is our Legacy."
From Sandton to Centurion, from Pretoria to Fourways, we’re here to keep your water systems working — and your day uninterrupted.
The Bigger Picture: Plumbers that Can be Trusted with Water, Sustainability, and Local Impact
The global water crisis isn’t just “somewhere else” — it’s here too. In South Africa:
- 31% of municipal water is lost before it even reaches consumers, costing billions annually
- Over 3 households still have no reliable water supply
- Wastewater treatment plantsin Gauteng operate under severe strain, with nearly 40% failing to meet safe discharge standards.
At Alpha Plumbing, we’re tackling this locally by:
- Preventing leaks and water loss through proactive maintenance.
- Installing water-efficient fixtures and smart plumbing systems.
- Supporting rainwater harvesting and water backup solutions for both homes and businesses.
As proud members of the World Plumbing Council (WPC), Institute of Plumbing South Africa (IOPSA), Plumbing Industry Registration Board (PIRB), International Rainwater Harvesting Association (IRHA), WWQA, Alliance for Water Stewardship (AWS), and Water Positive Global Environmental Think Tank, we bring world-class standards and insight to local solutions.
