Installation, repairs & parts in Benoni: local notes
Benoni's pump shops and nearby Germiston and Boksburg workshops repair and rewind borehole, pool and booster motors. On the plots, older pumps often show sand wear, and a cable joint or capacitor failure is a common cause of trips. Ask the installer to test the motor windings before replacing anything. Parts of Ekurhuleni are on dolomite, so check before drilling a new hole.
Benoni: the properties, the water and the pump shops
Benoni is known for its lakes and pans, from Homestead Lake to the water around Lakefield and Farrarmere, and that high water near the surface affects drainage in wet summers. The town also has a large ring of plots and small farms, in Putfontein, Benoni Agricultural Holdings, Rynfield and out toward Bapsfontein, where boreholes supply houses, poultry, horses and vegetable tunnels. In the older suburbs, Northmead and Rynfield homes have had water cuts, so tanks and boosters are common. Gold mines once worked under Benoni, and parts of Ekurhuleni lie on dolomite, so drill with care. Pump shops and workshops sit in Benoni's industrial areas and near the N12.
The requests we see from Benoni usually come from:
- Smallholdings and plots: a plot pump giving less water each month as sand wears the impellers
- Offices, shops, hotels and lodges: a lodge backup borehole pulled, tested and serviced before the dry season
- Factories, plants and depots: a factory borehole pump with a burnt motor rewound or replaced
