24/7 Emergency Plumber - We Show Up When We Say We Will

ABOUT US

Built By Johannesburg Locals Who Got Tired Of Unreliable Plumbers

We started Rapid Fix Plumbing 10 years ago after hearing the same complaints from friends and family. Plumbers wouldn’t show up, quotes were unclear and often doubled, and weekend emergencies were ignored. We thought it was time for a change. That’s why we built a family business that does things differently. We answer your calls, arrive when we say we will, and stick to our quoted prices.
 
Our team of five PIRB-registered plumbers has lived in Johannesburg all our lives. We grew up in the western suburbs and know firsthand how power surges can damage geysers, how old pipes can fail in heritage homes, and what it’s like when a burst pipe floods your ceiling late at night. When you call us, you’re speaking to people who genuinely understand Johannesburg plumbing problems because we’ve experienced them ourselves.

PLAN AND PRICING

We Fix The Problems Other Plumbers Create

You’ve dealt with unreliable plumbers before. We built our business to be the opposite of every frustration you’ve experienced.

The Problem

Shoddy Work That Fails Within Weeks. You spend your hard-earned money on a repair, only to have the same issue return a few weeks later. Sometimes, a rushed fix even leads to bigger problems. Poor workmanship means you end up paying twice: first for the job, then to get it done right.

Our Solution

We use quality parts, follow proper installation standards, and make sure the job is done right the first time. All our plumbers are PIRB registered and trained to high standards. We offer warranties on both parts and labour because we believe in our work.

The Problem

No One Answers When You Need Help Most. It’s 2am on a Suturday and water is pouring through your ceiling. You call five plumbers. Four send you to voicemail. The fifth picks up but says they can’t come until Tuesday. All the while, the damage keeps getting worse.

Our Solution

We answer our phones every hour of every day. When you call with an emergency, a real person will answer and send a plumber to you that same day. We tell you honestly when to expect us, and we arrive when we promise.

The Problem

Unclear Quotes That Suddenly Increase. Imagine a plumber sees your burst pipe and says it should cost about R800. After two hours, you get a bill for R2,200 with unexpected extra charges. By then, the work is finished and you have no choice but to pay.

Our Solution

We assess the problem properly, give you a clear written quote with itemized costs, and wait for your approval before starting any work. The price we quote is the price you pay. No hidden fees, no surprise charges at the end.
