What to know locally in George
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.
Who pumps what in George
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.
Typical pump hire requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: a drainage pump hired for a weekend to empty a flooded garage or a pool
- Complexes, estates and body corporates: pumps hired after a storm to clear flooded basements and storm water sumps
- Offices, shops, hotels and lodges: an office basement pumped out while the sump pump is being repaired
