Hillside Homes and Apartments

The City Bowl mixes older houses on steep streets with apartment blocks, and both bring their own plumbing quirks: water pressure and temperature problems, ageing geysers in tight spaces, and sectional title questions about who's responsible for what.

We diagnose pressure and hot water problems properly and explain the fix before we start. We can usually be with you the same day, within 1 to 2 hours during working hours.

Quick Response in the City Bowl

We come to you across the City Bowl, from apartments along Kloof Street to homes off Upper Orange Street. During working hours we can usually be with you the same day, within 1 to 2 hours.

We specialize in water pressure problems, geyser repairs and replacements, leak detection and blocked drains in the City Bowl. In tight apartment spaces we check access before we quote, so there are no surprises on the day.

1-year workmanship guarantee for City Bowl projects.

What Our Cape Town Customers Say

  • Geyser repair

    Excellent service! My geyser was pulling around 24 units of electricity a day and he came out and diagnosed and fixed the issue. He spent over two hours here making sure everything was sorted. Very professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely lovely to deal with. I really appreciated the time and care he took to get everything right. Highly recommend!!

  • Heat pump installation

    Trex Plumbing did an excellent job installing our heat pump. The team was professional, punctual, and their workmanship was of a very high standard. The installation was neat, efficient, and everything was explained clearly. We are extremely happy with the service and would highly recommend Trex Plumbing to anyone looking for reliable plumbing and heat pump installation. Thank you for a great job!
