About Tapline Plumbing

Cape Town plumbers since 2010, built on turning up on time and charging what we quoted.

Our story

From one van to 18 plumbers

Daniel Pretorius started Tapline in 2010 after years of hearing the same complaints about plumbers: they did not arrive, did not call back and the bill never matched the quote.

So we built the company the other way around. Every call is answered by a person, every job is priced before work starts, and every plumber is qualified and registered. Today 18 plumbers and a team of six in the office look after thousands of homes and businesses.
