I had an urgent roof issue just before heavy rains, and within hours of my request, a gentleman named Bonnie from Maitland contacted me. He had done previous work in Westlake and knew exactly how to get to me. He arrived promptly, assessed the problem, and clearly explained what needed to be done using a blow torch. As a widow who’s been retrenched and relying on rental income from a studio flatlet, I truly appreciated his reasonable quote and professional approach. He completed the job quickly and efficiently, giving me peace of mind and helping me avoid losing a tenant. Excellent, reliable service from start to finish. I highly recommend Bonnie and the Procompare platform, and I’ll definitely be using them again for future building quotes!

From the first call, the team was super responsive and rocking up right on time, so the whole waterproofing job kicked off smoothly. Their crew stayed friendly yet totally professional, paying close attention to every seam and corner of the roof. They even tweaked the plan last-minute to fit my schedule—no fuss, no extra cost. High-quality finish, great value, definately exceeded what i expected

Secure Projects have totally transformed my roof from a faded painted embarrassment into a fantastic finish. They are without doubt the most professional Contractor that I have employed to carry out maintenance of my property at Pinnacle Point Golf Estate in Mossel Bay over the last 18 years. I highly recommend them if you require a five star service. Because of their professional service, I have now contacted them to paint the total exterior of my property and also to replace the tired bricks on my whole Patio. Thank you both, Jon Jon & Anneka.

They finished the job in one day, with lots of load shedding that day. He even brought a generator with him to be able to finish the job. He truly went above and beyond and I would definitely recommend him. I was very impressed!
I got a recommendation for SPARKLE HOME IMPROVEMENTS and we didn't regret it. Would definitely recommend further!

The father and son team are very professional and competent in their work. Friendly ,kind and trustworthy. We had our DB board and Meter box relocated. They went over and above what they were asked to do. We had a problem which had nothing on our DB board which they gladly sorted out. On completion they asked me to check all plugs and switches before concluding their day. I have only praise for this Team and I can highly recommend them!
