55 years of Durban plumbing

Professional, reliable and competent in all aspects of the work we perform — the same promise since 1971.

Jurgens Plumbers team and branded vehicles

Our story

Jurgens Plumbers was established in 1971 by Jurgen Swart I to assist the greater Durban North area with plumbing needs. Operations were then taken over by Jurgen Swart II in 1993. Over five decades we have changed and developed, while continuously building a reputation of being professional, reliable, and competent in all aspects of the work we perform.

Today we work for private homeowners, body corporates and the country's largest insurers alike — from a leaking mixer to a full bathroom rebuild or an insurance-specified geyser installation with certificate of compliance.
