Public beachfront or a fault in your rented home: who do you call?
The question is whether the problem is in a public place or inside your home.
On a public street or beachfront, report sewage to the City. Where the City of Cape Town looks after your street, the fault line is 0860 103 089 (follow the prompts), and an SMS to 31373 also works. Say where you are and what you can see.
Inside a home or flat, the City's guidance is that a blockage on private property is for a registered plumber. If you rent, check three things before you book:
- Does your lease or your landlord say who arranges repairs?
- Does your managing agent or building's managing body need to approve a plumber?
- Does the problem affect only your unit, or neighbours too?
Tell us the answers in the form. A pipe in a shared wall is a question for the managing body.

Where else on this coast do we cover?
Milnerton and Melkbosstrand are close, and both are covered. Neither has its own page, so give the suburb in the form. The wider north side of the city sits under plumber in the Northern Suburbs, with plumber in Bellville and plumber in Durbanville further inland. Every area is listed under where we work.

I rent a flat in Table View and my geyser is leaking. Do I call the City?
No. A geyser leak inside your home is private plumbing, not a City fault. The City handles faults on its network in the street.
Tell your landlord or managing agent, and request a quote if you want a plumber to look at it.
Is Bloubergstrand covered on this page?
Yes. Bloubergstrand and Melkbosstrand are both covered on this page. Put your suburb in the form, then we call you back.
Neither has a page of its own yet.
