Imagine never having to search for a reliable contractor again — and always knowing exactly who to call. Your home looked after by someone who knows it and actually cares, while you spend your weekends doing the things you love.
Scheduled care + free callouts
Every homeowner deserves someone reliable to call. Not a faceless contractor — a dedicated person who knows your home and takes pride in looking after it.
We find small problems before they become expensive ones. Two thorough visits a year keeps your home ahead of the curve — and your wallet out of danger.
No surprise invoices. No call-out fees on your included visits. One affordable monthly amount — budgeted, predictable, sorted.
You get a dedicated person who knows your home — not a call centre or a different contractor every time. Founder-led and personally overseen by Francois, so the care and the standard never change.
Most homeowners in Edgemead have the same problem. Not that their home is falling apart — just that it's slowly falling behind.
The leaking tap. The stiff door. The cracked grouting. You notice it every day. You'll get to it on Saturday. You don't. It's still there in December.
You finally call someone. R600 just for the first hour. Then they ghost you. Or they arrive without their tools and want to use yours. Eish.
That small leak becomes water damage. The loose hinge becomes a broken door. Ignoring maintenance never saves money — it just delays the bigger bill.
A standard callout in Cape Town runs R600–R900 for the first hour alone — before anything is even fixed. Here's what you actually get for your subscription instead.
Five steps from first message to a home that's properly looked after. No paperwork piles, no office visits — just WhatsApp and we handle the rest.

Bakgat — Afrikaans for "first-class." The full works: maximum coverage, same-day callouts, the biggest parts budget, annual softwash and full on-site IT support.
You're taking a chance on us before the world knows our name. We don't forget that. Founding members lock in a special rate that stays with them for as long as they stay with Klusjes — subject only to the same annual CPI-linked adjustment that applies to all clients.
Some jobs are once-off. We get it. Klusjes also takes on ad-hoc work at a quoted rate — no obligation, no pressure. And if you decide to subscribe afterwards, that's lekker too.
Every visit combines a full inspection with hands-on fixes within your plan's scope. Higher plans mean more time and broader scope done in a single visit.
Doors, locks, hinges, handles, shelves, cupboards and minor carpentry — the everyday list that never quite gets done.

If something's beyond our scope, we say so — and where possible connect you with a trusted specialist from our network. No pretending, no winging it.
The same standard Francois would want in his own home — meticulous, careful, finished properly. Not good enough. Showroom.
Not a call centre. Not a different person every visit. A dedicated technician who knows your home — founder-led by Francois and held to his standard, every single time.
Growing up on a farm, you learn that broken things don't fix themselves — and that there's deep satisfaction in solving a problem with your own hands.
Klusjes didn't start with a business plan — it started with a calling. Francois van Dyk grew up on a farm where fixing things wasn't optional, it was life. Technical school, an IT career, and years of neighbours calling for help later — it made sense to make it official.
In the early days, Francois does the work himself. As Klusjes grows, every technician who joins is hand-picked and personally trained by Francois — chosen for character and craftsmanship, not just a CV. Your home is an investment, and we don't take chances with it.
When you're assigned a dedicated technician, that's your person — the same familiar face who knows your home, not a rotating roster of strangers. Every job, whoever does it, is finished to one standard: the one Francois would want in his own home.
