Testimonials

What Our Clients Say

Trusted by trustees, HOA directors, portfolio managers, and property owners across Gauteng.
Here’s what they have to say about working with The Caretakers.

54 Sunset Vale, 240 Swartgoud Street, Winchester Hills, 2091 To Whom It May Concern I feel proud and honored to submit this recommendation for The Caretakers as a garden service professional in our complex. Our complex has been a client of The Caretakers for the two years and counting. We have always been extremely satisfied with The Caretakers work. We found The Caretakers to be extremely versatile and very accommodating, which we found is a valuable trait in a garden service professional. They don’t only maintain the lawns, hedges and gardens on our property, but also do routine maintenance in terms of the complex pool, plumbing, dustbins, paving, construction and electrical requirements. The Caretakers keep us informed on a daily, weekly and monthly basis via their online app. The Caretakers are reliable and their work is always extremely professional and up to standard and most of the times exceeds our exceptions. The Caretakers on and off-site personnel are very professional, approachable and eager to assist the residents of our complex at all times. As far as we are concerned, you will receive value for your money as well as a professional service provider. Please feel free to contact me for any further information or details. Regards, Kuben Shaun Naidoo Estate Chairman

We started using this garden service about three months ago and our gardens a in top shape. Whenever we have issues it is dealt with in a professional manner. The owners take the time to address issues. Obviously they do make mistakes but it is addressed in a timely manner. Thank you to Gerhard and team for doing a good job.

The Trustees of Le Boulevard Body Corporate signed an agreement with The Caretakers in August 2020 as the garden services for the complex. To date we have been extremely satisfied with the level of service we have received from The Caretakers. There is regular supervision by various individuals from The Caretakers, and they do a complete walk-about of the premises. Weekly feedback is given to all Trustees via an e-mail link and photographs are attached as reference. For any issues like light bulbs needing replacement, general repairs and maintenance, and matters of possible problems that may arise, The Caretakers advise the Managing Agents and Trustees immediately, upon which the Trustees make a decision as to the need to replace, repair or monitor. We have a regular schedule of where the workers are meant to operate and what their duties consist of, and this schedule is maintained daily. Empty areas have been cleaned up and shrubs and perennials have been planted, adding color and greenery to bare areas. Thus far we have had no complaints from any owner or tenant and thus we can only believe that the service received from The Caretakers has been more than satisfactory. We recommend The Caretakers and thank them for what they have done for our premises to date.

Le Boulevard BC

I would highly recommend "The Caretakers". They started working in our complex in January 2019 and our complex was in a very bad condition due to the previous contractor. Our complex gardens and common property are in an immaculate condition now. This is evident in the number of compliments we have received from both residents and visitors in the past year. The management team is friendly and always willing to assist where they can. They deliver over and above their contractual requirements. Once again a big "Thank You" and "Well Done" to The Caretakers.
