CJ STEYN — FOUNDER & CEO
A Plumber Who Puts Community First
Many people turn a blind eye when they hear about sewerage problems in their town. For CJ Steyn (29), a qualified plumber from Welkom, it became a call to action. Driven by a deep sense of responsibility toward his community, he approached the local authorities with an offer to help address sewerage challenges — within his means and as a service to the community.
CJ's sense of community is rooted in empathy and shared responsibility. He believes that when one area suffers, the entire town feels the impact. For him, blocked drains and overflowing sewerage are not just municipal issues — they affect families, children, health, and dignity. Instead of waiting for change, he chooses to be part of the solution.
His contribution goes far beyond words. CJ donates his time and experience to assist municipal officials in clearing sewer blockages and opening drains — after hours, allowing him to continue running his business while still giving back.
I have a passion for my community that goes beyond making money. I want to make a change, no matter how small it may seem to others. I want to know that I did my part to contribute to society.
— CJ Steyn, Founder of Goudveld PlumbingDespite the demands of running a business, CJ believes community comes first. "My love for my community outweighs my passion for business. If each person does their part, imagine the world we could live in."
This philosophy is reflected in every job Goudveld Plumbing takes on. From the quality of the workmanship to the transparency of pricing, from the speed of emergency response to the genuine care shown to every customer — CJ's values are the foundation of the business.
