Plumber for Geyser Installations – Immediate Start

You'll sort out burst geysers, leaks and blockages for the commercial building contractor in Mbombela. If you turn up on time and finish what you start, you'll fit in quickly.

The work is in Mbombela, Mpumalanga, so you'll need a reliable way to get there every day. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

• Order fittings from the supplier and keep the van stocked
• Service booster pumps, pressure tanks and water storage tanks
• Trace hidden leaks using pressure tests and moisture readings
• Work on the emergency call-out roster for after-hours bursts
• Clear blocked drains with a rodding machine and inspect lines with a drain camera
• Issue plumbing Certificates of Compliance for completed installations
• Install and repair soil and waste pipes to SANS 10400 Part P

• Plumbing trade test certificate or an Occupational Certificate: Plumber (NQF 4)
• Fit enough to lift a 150-litre geyser with a helper and work in tight roof spaces
• Able to talk politely to home owners about damage and costs
• Working knowledge of SANS 10252-1 and SANS 10254
• At least 3 years as a qualified plumber, including geyser replacements
• PIRB registration as a Licensed Plumber, so you can issue plumbing CoCs

• Paid PIRB renewal fee
• Call-out bonus for every after-hours job you complete
• Protective clothing and safety boots replaced yearly

• Mention how many geyser replacements you do in a normal month. It is the number most plumbing managers ask about.
• Do not list every plumbing task you have ever done. Focus on geysers, drainage and CoCs, which is what these jobs pay for.
