When to call a geyser plumber
Alpha Plumbing has been handling geyser repairs in Johannesburg and Pretoria since 1989, so we know how quickly a small warning sign can turn into a bigger problem.
A faulty geyser does not always fail all at once. Often there are warning signs first. Spotting them early can help you avoid bigger damage, safety issues and a more expensive replacement.
No or inconsistent hot water
Water leaking from the tank or ceiling
Geyser trips the power
Overheated or scalding hot water
Electric tingling when touching taps
Strange noises from the tank
Overflowing geyser
Burst geyser
An overflowing geyser is one of the most misunderstood warning signs. A few drips may be normal, but steady flow, streaming water, or hot discharge is not. Read our guide to when an overflowing geyser is a problem if you are unsure what you are seeing.
If you are dealing with a geyser emergency right now, we have also put together a step-by-step guide on what to do before a plumber arrives so you can reduce damage safely while waiting for help.
Geyser Repair or Replacement
Not every faulty geyser should be repaired. In many cases, repeated faults, internal failures, or the age of the unit make replacement a safer and more sensible option.
Alpha Plumbing handles the full range of geyser services, from fault-finding and component repairs to complete geyser replacement when the unit has failed or become unsafe.
We'll advise you on the most sensible route

Burst Geyser and Other Geyser FAQs
That depends on the age of the unit, the type of fault, and whether the tank itself has failed. Some problems can be repaired cost-effectively. In other cases, replacement is the safer and more sensible option. Alpha Plumbing can assess the geyser and advise on the best route.
Not always. A small intermittent drip is expected as pressure changes, but steady flow, streaming water, hot water and steam are warning signs that should not be ignored.
Read our guide on overflowing geysers and when to call a plumber.
This can be caused by electrical faults, a failed element, thermostat issues or moisture exposure. It should be checked promptly, especially if the tripping keeps happening.
Common signs include water leaking through the ceiling, visible tank leakage or water around the geyser, and sudden loss of hot water.
If it is safe to do so, isolate the water and power to the geyser and act quickly to limit damage.
