Who we are

Three generations. One Durban North family.

ERS Plumbers was started in 1964 by Ernie Robertson Shaw. Bradley Shaw carried it through the next chapter, and Brendan Shaw runs it today. Same family, same suburb, same straightforward approach for sixty years.

Most of our clients have called ERS at least once before. Some have used us across two or three generations. The reason is simple: we show up, we explain the job clearly, and we leave it neat.
