Water tanks and pumps

Steady water depends on a clean tank and a working pump. We install, clean and repair tanks, booster pumps and borehole pumps so you have pressure when you need it.

Water tanks and pumps

What we fix

  • New plastic or elevated tank installation
  • Tank cleaning and disinfection
  • Booster pumps that won't start or keep cycling
  • Low pressure on upper floors
  • Borehole pump and pressure-switch faults
  • Float valves stuck open or closed (tank overflowing or empty)
  • Leaking tank outlets and connections
  • Pressure vessel and control panel problems

How we do it

  1. Tell us your tank size, pump type and the problem
  2. We check water supply, float valve, pump, pressure switch and wiring
  3. We repair or replace the faulty part and set the right pressure
  4. We test the system with all taps and show you how to look after it

When to call us

  • The pump runs all the time or switches on and off quickly
  • Brown or smelly water from taps
  • Tank overflowing from the top
  • No water upstairs while downstairs is fine

Spotting these early usually makes the repair smaller and cheaper.
