Onsite Generator Repairs

Yes, we repair generators in North West, mainly on the Madibeng side around Hartbeespoort Dam, and we take calls at any hour. We are open 24/7; send the address and we confirm the time for your area, then the technician diagnoses the fault on site and quotes in writing before work starts.

Most of our work is in Gauteng, but we also travel across the provincial border into North West. The area we reach most often is the Madibeng side of the Magaliesberg, around Hartbeespoort Dam: Schoemansville, Kosmos, Melodie, Ifafi, Meerhof, Broederstroom and Skeerpoort, reached along the N4, R511, R512 and R104.

Properties here are a mix of permanent homes, weekend and holiday houses, lifestyle estates, guest lodges, resorts and small farms. Weekend houses are a special case: the generator can stand unused for weeks, so the battery, charger and fuel need extra attention, and we can work on the set while you are away if someone can let us in.

Lodges, restaurants and small businesses around the dam depend on their standby sets during busy weekends, while farms and smallholdings towards Skeerpoort run boreholes and irrigation from generators with diesel stored on site. We test each set under its real load and check the stored fuel for water and dirt.

If your property is further into North West, call or send the address with the make, fuel type and fault, and we will tell you straight away whether we can take the job.

Common Generator Problems We Diagnose

Around Hartbeespoort and Madibeng we mostly see generators that stand for long periods at weekend homes, and working sets on lodges and farms that run hard on busy days.

Will not start

A weak battery, a starter fault, fuel that is not arriving or a controller alarm. We test the battery and charger first.

Cranks but will not fire

Filters, air in the fuel system, stale fuel at a holiday house, or a shutdown while the engine is turning.

No usable power

When the engine is already running, we test the AVR, alternator, breaker and wiring.

Low frequency

We check engine speed, the governor and the load when the frequency drops.

Overheating

After a long run on a busy weekend, we check coolant, leaks and radiator airflow.

Servicing and maintenance: see our generator servicing page

Planned services for homes, lodges and farms around the dam are booked through our generator servicing page. For a weekend house, a service before the busy season means the set is ready when you arrive, not discovered flat on a Friday night.

Generator Not Starting

A click with no crank points to the battery path, an engine that turns and will not fire points to fuel or a shutdown, and a set that never tries on auto points to the controller once the battery is known to be sound. We name the cause before recommending parts.

Diesel Generator Repairs

Our diesel work covers filters, contaminated fuel, delivery and cooling. We open the lift pump and injectors only if the engine still starves after the filters are clear.

Voltage, AVR & Output Problems

We measure no-output, low-voltage and unstable-voltage faults on site, and follow low frequency back to engine speed. AVR and governor settings need a technician with meters, so leave the panel closed.

Generator Control Panel & ATS Faults

We read alarms, failed automatic starts and ATS or AMF transfer problems on the control panel. When a set runs but will not take load, we test the controls before looking at the engine.

Generators We Service

In North West we service home and holiday-house standby sets, lodge and restaurant generators, farm diesels and portable petrol units. Share the kVA, the fuel type and the fault when you book.

Can you service the generator at our weekend house near the dam?

The usual causes are the battery, fuel, a blocked filter or a controller alarm. We test each before changing parts.
