Compliance Certifications (COC)
As licensed and accredited plumbers, we are authorised to inspect, certify, and issue valid COCs for a range of installations. If your home or business is located in or around Cape Town, we can help you! By accessing a plumbing COC, you have adequate protection, assurance, and peace of mind. Without it, you risk legal issues when selling your home, insurance complications if you need to claim, and avoidable safety risks due to poor installations.
Our COC Services:
Schedule 4 COC: This certificate covers standard plumbing installations, ensuring waste pipes, water systems, and fixtures comply with regulations and bylaws.
Solar Geyser Installation COC: For safety assurance and regulatory compliance, it is essential to obtain a COC once your solar geyser is installed.
Geyser Replacement COC: If you replace your geyser for any reason, a COC is a regulatory requirement to show that the new installation was completed correctly.
Heat Pump COC: Our trusted team of plumbers can assess your heat pump installation and certify it if it meets manufacturer specifications and regulatory requirements.
What Is a Plumbing Certificate of Compliance (COC)?
A plumbing Certificate of Compliance is an official document confirming that the plumbing on a property meets SANS standards and municipal bylaws. In Cape Town it is typically required when you sell a property, and it gives buyers peace of mind that the plumbing is safe and water-tight.
What a Plumbing COC Covers
- The geyser installation, safety valves and overflow.
- Hot and cold water pipes, with no leaks on the property.
- The water meter and that no stormwater discharges into the sewer.
- Fixtures, taps and drainage are correctly installed and working.
If we pick up an issue during the inspection, we can carry out the necessary leak detection, geyser or general plumbing repairs so your property passes.
Plumbing COC Cost
The price of a compliance certificate depends on the size of the property and whether any repairs are needed to bring the plumbing up to standard. We provide a clear, upfront quote after the inspection – with no hidden costs.
