Motseng Investments Holdings

We were contracted by Mr Cliff Govender from Motseng to redesign the boardroom/meetingroom area in order
to accommodate office for three new staff members. We came up with a floor plan drawing and he liked the ideas and gave us the go-ahead on the job. The major works was drywall partitioning and wall papaering, but after we completed the job, it looked even better than we imagined it would look and the client is very happy with our workmanship. Motseng is the owners of Westgate Shopping Centre, and guess who will be working on all the future jobs coming up at Westgate...Here are some photos on how it looked when we completed the job.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

As our Social Awareness Project for 2011, Phela Construction Services has undertaken the refurbishment and renovations of the Rondebult Primary School. This school was closed in 2009 due to the shortage of funds to renovate and run the school. We came to hear about the plight of this school and children through the community of Dawn Park while busy with a project for SAB Miller. We offered our services to the Department of education and the Gauteng Provincial Administration and in January 2011, we were asked to become a part of the team to uplift the school. Phela Construction Services volunteered to supply and paint the entire school exterior, roofs and the interior of all buildings. We also volunteered to handle all the carpentry/joinery works and
to tile all floors of all buildings. The project started in February 2011 we are nearing completion of this project. It has been such a pleasure for us to be associated with this project because not only are we giving back to the community but we are also helping with the upliftment of a township that is very much in need of infrastructure, namely Dawn Park. Phela Construction is also currently in the process of communication with The Rotary Club of South Africa, whom identify a project in Eldorado Park, which they have asked us to assist with, as our next social awareness project. We are just as excited to become involved in this project. Stay tuned for news on this project in the very near future. Here are some pictures of the Rondebult Primary School Project.

We are truly becoming the leading experts on Thatch/Lapa construction. Sanparks commissioned us on 22nd July 2011 to service all the existing thatch structures in the Groenkloof National Park based in Pretoria.
We jumped in immediately and ripped off the existing grass from all the structures and started replacing all the grass with new low veld grass. We treated all the existing gumpoles and varnished them. Here are some pictures
