Questions
Common questions
What does ColdSmith do?
ColdSmith is a technical services company in Cape Town and the Western Cape with six departments: HVAC and refrigeration (Cold Smith), electrical (Electro Smith), solar and energy (Solar Smith), surge and lightning protection (Storm Smith), plumbing and water filtration (Pure Smith) and catering equipment (Chef Smith). Each designs, supplies, installs, repairs, services and maintains the systems in its trade.
Which areas do you cover?
We take jobs across Cape Town and the Western Cape, from the office in Kommetjie on the South Peninsula to Noordhoek, Fish Hoek, the Southern Suburbs, the Northern Suburbs, the Helderberg, the Cape Winelands and the West Coast. Tell us where the site is when you ask for a quote.
Can one company look after a whole restaurant, shop or forecourt?
Yes. One team covers a site's cold rooms and fridges, air-conditioning, kitchen extraction, catering equipment, electrical work, solar and water filtration, so there is one number to call. Brands we have worked for include Shell, TotalEnergies, Sasol, Spur, Steers, Mugg & Bean and Vida e Caffè.
Do you only do new installations, or repairs and maintenance too?
Both. Every department covers system design and installation as well as servicing and maintenance, with ongoing after-sales support, and the refrigeration and aircon, electrical, surge protection and catering equipment departments repair what they work on.
Do you work on commercial or residential sites?
Both. Most departments work on commercial, industrial, retail, hospitality and agricultural sites, and water filtration and lightning and surge protection also cover homes.
