How our coverage works
We work in two regions of South Africa: the Western Cape around Cape Town, and the Eastern Cape around Gqeberha and the Kouga coast. Within each region we group suburbs and towns into areas so we can plan efficient routes and get to you as quickly as possible.
Metro suburbs
In the main metro areas, such as Cape Town's suburbs and Gqeberha, we work every day. These are the quickest areas for us to reach.
Nearby towns
Towns a short drive from the metros, such as Stellenbosch, Somerset West, Paarl, Kariega and Jeffreys Bay, are covered on regular runs.
Outlying towns
Towns further away, such as Hermanus, Gansbaai, Bredasdorp, Worcester, Ceres, Saldanha, Langebaan, Kenton-on-Sea and Kirkwood, are booked by arrangement. We plan the visit in advance, ask for photos and model numbers so we can bring the right parts, and group jobs in the same area where we can to keep travel costs fair.
What we do in every area
- Aircon installation, with a 2-year warranty and free six-monthly services for those two years
- Aircon repair and servicing
- Fridge and freezer repair
- Washing machine repair
- Dishwasher repair
- Oven, stove and hob repair
- Coffee machine repair and servicing
Every repair carries a 6-month warranty, and our technicians have more than 15 years of experience.
Western Cape regions in more detail
- Atlantic Seaboard: Sea Point, Green Point and Hout Bay, where salt air and apartment living shape most repairs.

- Northern Suburbs: Durbanville, Bellville, Brackenfell, Kuils River, Goodwood, Panorama, Pinelands, Edgemead and Century City, with hotter summers and busy family homes and offices.
- Blouberg and Milnerton: Bloubergstrand, Parklands, Milnerton and Melkbosstrand, where the summer wind drives sand and salt into outdoor units.

- Helderberg: Somerset West and Strand, with estates, retirement villages and beachfront flats.
- Cape Winelands: Stellenbosch, Franschhoek, Paarl and Wellington, with hot summers and many guesthouses.

How to get the fastest booking
Wherever you are, a few details help us get to you sooner and fix the problem on the first visit:
- Your suburb or town, and for farms and smallholdings a WhatsApp location pin.
- The appliance and brand, plus a photo of the model sticker. On fridges it is usually inside on a side wall; on washing machines inside the door or on the back; on dishwashers on the side of the door; on aircons on the side of the indoor and outdoor units.
- What is happening, including any error code, noise, smell or leak, and when it started.
- Access details, such as gate codes, estate security, building managers or a caretaker if you are away.
- Other appliances that need attention, so we can look at them in the same visit.
With that information we can usually tell you the likely fault, give you an idea of what is involved and bring the parts most likely to be needed. In the metros that often means a same-day or next-day visit; in outlying towns it means a planned visit that gets the job done in one trip.
Our promise in every area
Whether you are in a Sea Point apartment, a Stellenbosch guesthouse, a Gqeberha family home or a farm outside Bredasdorp, you get the same standard: an independent technician with more than 15 years of experience, a clear quote before any work starts, a 6-month warranty on every repair and a 2-year warranty, with free six-monthly services, on every aircon we install.
Not sure if we cover you?
