Water Storage
A Plumbed-In Supply That Takes Over by Itself
Burst mains, planned maintenance and supply interruptions can leave parts of Randburg without water for hours or days, and homes on high ground often feel it first. For a family, that's no showers and no flushing toilets. For a restaurant, salon or small shop, it can mean closing the doors. A JoJo tank connected to your plumbing solves that.
We handle the whole installation: choosing the tank size, building a level base or stand, connecting it to the mains with a float valve and non-return valve, and fitting a booster pump and pressure system so the taps run at normal pressure. We can also connect your gutters for rainwater harvesting.

The Local Picture
Why These Faults Keep Turning Up in Randburg
Randburg's established suburbs have a particular mix of old pipework, big trees, hilly ground and a patchy municipal supply. This is how that mix leads to this kind of job:
When the Supply Cuts Out
Joburg Water maintenance, a burst main down the road or a Rand Water shutdown can leave Randburg dry for a day or more. Houses high up on a ridge lose pressure first and get it back last. When the water does return, trapped air slams through old pipes and can knock out a geyser valve or a toilet cistern. We repair what broke, and for homes and shops that are tired of waiting we install a JoJo tank with a pump that takes over by itself.
High Ground, Low Ground
On a hill like Northcliff, water pressure depends on where you live. Homes near the top can get a weak flow, especially at peak times, while homes lower down sit under high pressure that wears out taps, ball valves and geyser fittings and slowly forces leaks at old joints. We fit pressure-reducing valves where pressure is too high, booster set-ups where it's too low, and use leak detection when the meter keeps moving.
Downpours on Sloping Streets
Summer thunderstorms dump a lot of water in a short time, and on hilly roads it all runs downhill fast. Leaves, jacaranda blossom, sand and litter wash into gutters and gullies, and the property at the bottom of the slope takes the overflow. When a sewer gully spills over or a yard drain backs up after rain, we clear the blocked drain with a machine or high-pressure jetting.
Lights On, Hot Water Off
A power dip or surge in Randburg is hard on a geyser. The thermostat can fail, the element can blow, or the isolator trips and won't stay up. If the electricity is back but the hot tap still runs cold, we test each part, replace the one that's gone and usually have the geyser heating again on the same visit.
Burst Pipe or Flooded Floor in Randburg?
Close the main stopcock first. It's usually beside the water meter near the front boundary. Then phone 082 550 3306, which is staffed through the night, on weekends and on public holidays. For a quote or a job that can wait for office hours, the number is 087 700 7781.

You Asked
JoJo Tank Installations Randburg: Common Questions
Tap a question below to read our answer.
Think about how many people live there and how long the longest outage on your street has lasted. A 2,000 to 5,000 litre tank covers a lot of family homes, but we'll size it with you on site.
Yes. Once a booster pump and pressure vessel are connected, every tap, toilet, shower and the geyser draws from the tank while the mains are off.
Yes. A tank and booster pump can give homes high up on a hill steady pressure all the time, not only during cuts.
An ordinary booster pump stops when the power goes. If outages and power cuts tend to coincide where you live, we can talk through backup power for the pump or raising the tank on a tower so gravity does the work.
