Lynnwood Glen is older than Faerie Glen, and so is its plumbing

Lynnwood Glen was first established in 1967, when it was the most eastern suburb of Pretoria. Faerie Glen took that title in 1974. St Alban’s College, founded in 1963, sits in Lynnwood Glen, and the houses around it have now been through close to sixty Highveld summers and winters.

Age shows in plumbing in particular ways. Electric geysers only had to meet SANS 10254 from June 2001, so an original installation may lack the drip tray, the vacuum breakers or the pressure control valve a replacement must now have. Older houses may also have galvanised supply pipes or clay drains, which a pressure test or a camera confirms before anyone guesses.

The water side varies street to street. In April 2023 the City listed Lynnwood and Lynnwood Ridge under the Koedoesnek low-level reservoir alongside parts of Faerie Glen. By its July 2026 notice Lynnwood appeared under the Lynnwood Reservoir, while Lynnwood Park sits on the Parkmore low-level list. One name on the map, several supply paths.

An older network also shows itself in bursts. In January 2026 a fire hydrant burst at 306 Freesia Street in Lynnwood Ridge and flooded a local business, Rekord reported. Hydrants and mains are the City’s to repair. The pipe from the meter to the house belongs to the owner.

So the useful question for a Lynnwood house is not only what has failed, but what else is original. When a plumber is in a 1960s or 1970s roof for an element, the written report should also list what does not meet the current standard, even if nobody asked.

If your geyser installation has never been replaced, ask for a written list of what is missing the next time anyone goes into the roof.

The Lynnwoods we cover

Lynnwood Road (M6) ties them together. It crosses the N1, runs through Lynnwood Ridge, where January Masilela Drive ends, and carries on past Die Wilgers to Wapadrand. Lynnwood Glen borders Faerie Glen to the west.

Life Wilgers Hospital is on the same Koedoesnek low-level supply list as parts of Faerie Glen, and Lynnwood Manor, Die Wilgers and Equestria are all in the call-out area.

Worth checking in an older house

  • A drip tray under the geyser that drains outside
  • Vacuum breakers on both geyser pipes
  • A pressure control valve rated for the geyser
  • A main stopcock you can find and turn
  • When a camera last went down the main drain

Lynnwood questions

Answered from the City’s own notices where they apply.

What does a plumber charge in Lynnwood?

The call-out amount for your address and what it includes are given while we book, and the repair price comes before the repair. Dated market ranges for Pretoria are on the plumbing prices page.

Do you cover Lynnwood Glen, Lynnwood Ridge and Lynnwood Park?

Yes, all of them, plus Lynnwood Manor, Die Wilgers and Equestria. Lynnwood Glen borders Faerie Glen, so it sits well inside the call-out area.

My geyser is the original one. Does it have to be replaced?

Not because of its age alone. A geyser is replaced when the tank itself leaks or corrodes. When it is replaced, the new installation has to meet SANS 10254 in full, which is where an original installation usually needs the most added.

Who repairs a burst fire hydrant or main in my street?

The City. Hydrants and water mains are part of its network. Report it on 012 358 9999 or to waterleaks@tshwane.gov.za and keep the reference number in case you need to follow it up.

Why is my Lynnwood house on a different water notice from a friend’s in Faerie Glen?

Because the suburbs are fed through different reservoirs. Lynnwood has appeared under the Lynnwood and Koedoesnek reservoirs, and Faerie Glen under several others, so an outage can reach one and miss the other.
