Plumber in the Southern Peninsula, Cape Town

Fish Hoek, Clovelly, Glencairn and Simon's Town

These False Bay suburbs are covered, and none has its own page, so name yours in the form. The City's release of 2 September 2026 lists completed water-pipe projects in Fish Hoek (2,645 m, April 2026) and Glencairn (1,011 m, June 2026). Simon's Town and Fish Hoek appear in its 2026/27 project list. Those are past and planned City works, not faults.

Hout Bay and Imizamo Yethu

Both are covered here. Hout Bay is on the Atlantic side of the Peninsula, and Llandudno next to it is under plumber in the Atlantic Seaboard. The City's release lists two Hout Bay projects (1,565 m in total, May 2026). A sewer overflow or burst main is a City fault, whichever suburb you are in.

Muizenberg, Kalk Bay and St James

Muizenberg is at the start of the False Bay side, and these three are covered. Some maps place Muizenberg in the Southern Suburbs. We list it here, and Tokai sits under plumber in the Southern Suburbs.

Noordhoek, Kommetjie, Scarborough and Masiphumelele

These suburbs are covered here. The City listed Noordhoek (2,288 m across two projects, May 2026) and Kommetjie (3,016 m, June 2026) among its completed water-pipe projects.

What else is on the Peninsula list?

We also cover Capri Village, Da Gama Park, Lakeside, Ocean View, Sunnydale and Sun Valley. The City's release lists Sun Valley (3,936 m, June 2026). Most of the Peninsula's land is part of Table Mountain National Park, and the Atlantic side runs through Scarborough, Kommetjie and Hout Bay.

City water-pipe projects completed in 2026 (reference)

This table is a dated record, not a guide to current roadworks. The City's release of 2 September 2026 lists these completed projects and says the programme replaces ageing water pipes before they fail. For current work, check the City's service notices.

Who handles a sewer overflow or smell near the coast?

The City of Cape Town does. Phone its fault line on 0860 103 089; the prompts route you. SMS 31373 and the service portal are the alternatives. The street address is what the City asks for. Keep people and pets away from suspected sewage and avoid contact. Stop using the affected toilet or drain. The City says blocked and overflowing sewers can be dangerous to your health.

Our page on blocked drains covers what to do on your own property. If a blockage keeps returning, say so in your request.

What jobs can I ask about down the Peninsula?

For a flooded floor or a pipe that has let go, ask for an emergency plumber. A damp wall or a high water bill is leak detection. The rest are geyser repair or replacement, gas and solar geysers and bathroom plumbing. See plumbing services for the set, and what a plumber costs shows the ballpark ranges. Everywhere else is on where we work.
