As if you didn’t already have enough to deal with, you are now faced with a water leak or an electricity issue that urgently needs attention. But before you go to pieces over it, know that Ant Projects is available to sort out your plumbing or electrical emergencies.
Operating in the Gauteng region, Ant Projects is an experienced handyman, plumbing and electrical company with plenty of experience and qualified electricians. For many years we have been offering our clients an unbeatable, affordable service, with our expert team being quick on the job, sorting out problems before they become costly wrecks.
As South Africa faces this unprecedented COVID -19 lockdown, leaving so many of us feeling lost and alone when facing an at home emergency, for Ant Projects, it is business as usual.
Our skilled team is ready and waiting to assist clients who are faced with an unexpected plumbing or electrical crisis during the Coronavirus pandemic.
Just because you are on lockdown doesn’t mean things are going smoothly at home. And when your geyser springs a leak or your tap suddenly begins to drip, or even worse, should your plugs decide to trip the house for no visible reason, you don’t have to stress yourself out thinking about having to live with these problems until the 16th of April.
What we can do for you
Our exceptionally trained and experienced team of plumbers and electricians are renowned in the Gauteng province for providing a fast and highly effective service that encompasses everything from plumbing and electric work, to tree felling, rubble removal and handyman services.
Generally, our services include repairs and replacements, as well as new installations, but during the lockdown, we are focusing solely on providing our clients with emergency repairs.
When the unexpected happens you can rest knowing that our team is just a call away, and we will quickly have you sorted out so that you can go back to focusing on what really matters during this strange time; your family and your health.
Although our normal range of services covers a wide variety of things, during lockdown our services will primarily focus on electrical and plumbing repairs.
We can help you with:
- Water leaks
- Burst pipes
- Dripping taps
- Leaking geysers
- Broken geysers
- Leaking sinks
- Clogged or leaking toilets
- Electrical trips with no explanation
- Overloaded outlets
- Power outages (that aren’t storm or municipal related)
- Flickering lights
- Burning outlets
These are just a few of the more basic emergencies that we can take care of, but as an experienced and flexible company, whatever emergency you encounter, we are quite sure that we can get it fixed for you.
What should you do in the event of a plumbing emergency?
If it is a small problem, and water is not gushing out and going to waste, you can get away with not turning off the mains. But if the water is flowing out at a phenomenal rate, the first thing you should do before phoning us is to turn off your water at the mains.
During these times, when most of the shops are closed and you can’t simply run out to the hardware shop to get what you need for a little DIY, having our services ready and available is the best option.
Besides, plumbing is something best left to the professional plumbers as they have the right tools and the experience to get the job done.
What should you do in the event of an electrical emergency?
While most of us can deal with a plumbing emergency while we wait for the professionals, an electrical emergency is another story simply because it can be quite a hair raising ordeal. Attempting to fix an electrical issue, while having no experience, skills or tools, can be very dangerous.
In these situations, it is always best to call in a professional electrician.
So when you have an electrical emergency you should, if possible, turn off the power at the mains, and avoid going close to the problem. Once you have done this, give Ant Projects a call and we’ll send one of our electricians out to evaluate the problem, and then fix it.
As we’ve mentioned before, we try to keep our costs as low as possible so that even in an emergency situation, you will be able to afford the service. During this lockdown, we’ve tried to make sure that we have everything we need in order to provide you with the best possible service.
Our expert service is available throughout the Gauteng area and we continue to provide a 24 hour emergency service for those who experience unexpected issues in the middle of the night.
We have the experience and all of the tools necessary to complete jobs of all kinds, no matter the size or complexity of the issue at hand.
