George notes on installation, repairs & parts
Pump repairers and rewinders in the George industrial area serve the whole Garden Route, from Mossel Bay to Knysna. Holiday homes often stand empty for months, so pumps seize and pressure tanks lose air; ask for a service visit before the season. Drillers travel across the district, and spares like pressure switches, capacitors and non-return valves are kept in stock in town.
George: the properties, the water and the pump shops
George lies on a plateau between the Outeniqua Mountains and the sea, and rain falls through most of the year, yet the town has still been hit by serious droughts that dropped the Garden Route Dam low and led to restrictions. Many homes in Blanco, Heatherlands and on smallholdings outside town have since added tanks, rainwater harvesting and boreholes. Dairy, hops and vegetable farms in the district irrigate from dams, rivers and boreholes. Water from the mountain catchments is often stained brown by fynbos, which is natural. Holiday homes in Wilderness and Herold's Bay run pools and pressure pumps, and sandy coastal ground brings dewatering work. Pump shops and rewinders are in the George industrial area off the main roads.
The requests we see from George usually come from:
- Homeowners: a garden borehole pump that hums and trips after a summer storm
- Farms: a stock water borehole pulled by crane truck when the troughs stopped filling
- Smallholdings and plots: a plot pump giving less water each month as sand wears the impellers
