Yes. DrainLema Vaal is a licensed plumbing service. All installations are carried out to SANS standards and compliance certificates are issued on request — important for insurance and property sales.
We install and repair all major geyser types: - Electric geysers - Solar geysers - Heat pump geysers We also replace elements, thermostats, and pressure control valves, and issue compliance certificates for all geyser work.
We use high-pressure water jetting — a powerful, chemical-free method that clears blockages caused by grease, roots, scale, and debris. It's fast, effective, and won't damage your pipes.
In most cases, yes. We use specialist non-invasive leak detection equipment to locate hidden leaks behind walls, under floors, and underground — before we touch anything. This saves you time, money, and unnecessary damage.
1. Turn off your mains water supply immediately (usually near your water meter). 2. If a geyser has burst, switch off the electrical isolator for the geyser at your DB board. 3. Call DrainLema on 082 784 5633 — we're available 24/7. Don't leave water running — even a small burst pipe can cause thousands of rands of damage quickly.
A Red Seal (Trade Test Certificate) is a nationally recognised qualification awarded to tradespeople who pass a rigorous practical and theoretical assessment. It's the highest standard of artisan certification in South Africa. Most plumbers in the Vaal Triangle do not hold a Red Seal — DrainLema does. This means: - Work is done to the highest professional standard - Compliance certificates are legally valid - Your insurance claim won't be rejected due to unqualified workmanship
Yes — a call-out fee applies for Kenneth to visit and assess the job. This fee is deducted from your final invoice if you go ahead with the work. This keeps things fair: Kenneth's time and travel are covered, and you only pay the full amount once. No tyre-kickers, no wasted trips — just honest, professional service.
Meet the Plumber
Kenneth Cutler built DrainLema Vaal on a simple belief: every customer deserves honest workmanship at a fair price.
With a Red Seal Trade Certificate and years of hands-on experience, Kenneth started DrainLema out of frustration with overpriced, unreliable plumbers in the Vaal Triangle. The goal was clear — show up on time, fix it properly, charge fairly, and leave no mess behind. That standard hasn't changed since day one.
"A Red Seal isn't just a certificate — it means I've proven I can do this work to the highest standard. That's what every customer in the Vaal deserves."
— Kenneth Cutler, Founder
