Transform your outdoor space with a beautifully designed pergola from BOMO Renovations. Whether you’re creating a shaded retreat or an elegant entertainment area, a custom pergola is the perfect addition to your home. At BOMO, we specialize in designing and installing high-quality pergolas in Cape Town, tailored to your lifestyle and aesthetic preferences.
What is a Pergola?
A pergola is a covered outdoor structure that provides partial shade and defines an outdoor space. Traditionally built with wood or metal frames and open rafters, modern pergolas can include a variety of features to enhance comfort and functionality, such as:
• Waterproofing – Protects from rain while allowing light to filter through.
• UV Protection – Shields from harmful sun rays.
• Insulated Roof Panels – Keeps the area cooler in summer and warmer in winter.
• Integrated Lighting – Creates a cozy atmosphere for evening use.
• Side Panels and Curtains – Adds privacy and wind protection.
Pergolas are highly versatile—they can be freestanding or attached to your home, and designed to suit both modern and classic architectural styles.
Benefits of Installing a Pergola
- Increased Outdoor Living Space – Create a defined, usable space for relaxing or entertaining.
- Enhanced Property Value – A stylish pergola can increase your home’s curb appeal and market value.
- Shade and Comfort – Provides protection from the sun while allowing for natural airflow.
- Low Maintenance – High-quality materials and expert installation ensure durability with minimal upkeep.
- Multi-Season Use – Add heaters and curtains to create a comfortable space in all weather conditions.

Jérémy Van Canneyt2026-08-26 A big thank you to Bomo and the whole team for the amazing work they did in our apartment. We’re really happy with the final result! Everything went smoothly from start to finish, and the team was professional, helpful and lovely to work with. A special thank you to Clara for managing the project so well and keeping everything on track. It was a real pleasure working with you, and we would definitely recommend you! ophir schapiro2026-08-07 Had my doors repainted. Very professional and pleasant to work with. Great job on the doors👍 Kate Stannard2026-08-03 What a great experience. From helping me design splitting a small-shared bathroom into two, being a sounding board on fittings, ordering parts, project management and excellent execution and speed. The whole team at BOMO are a joy to work with. Best renovation I have ever done (and I have done many). Estee Maria Redding2026-07-17 Wesley Tapson2026-05-27 I recently had my bathroom renovated by BOMO renovations, I had such nightmares with previous contractors which I had to kick off site due to extreme incompetence, and really needed someone to just come in and help. We went for high end finishes and large slab tiles, which many contractors in Cape Town are not qualified to do well, so we learned… and BOMO really did come in and save the day for us so we are extremely greatful for that. I worked with Clara, Joseph the tiler, and Blessing the project manager. Clara was very attentive and she was willing to offer any assistance which I needed, Joseph’s tiling skills were on point and he handled my big 2.4m slab tile with care and he and his assistant also really took care of my apartment which I really appreciated, they always cleaned up really well after their work too which was something I was very impressed by. Taking care of my property while doing the work is something I really wanted. Then Blessing managed the team very well and again took much emphasis on taking care of all my things while the work was underway, all in all I would highly recommend BOMO to do your renovations, as I’ve learned there is a big incompetence of contractors in Cape Town, and the standards BOMO hold is what is needed when you want your job done properly and to a higher end, not just your “simple” renovations. Stephanie Perkins2026-03-15 My motivation was to find a team who could help me physically transform my apartment, implement creative ideas, complete all the furnishing, and create a beautiful and relaxed atmosphere. The team at BOMO made this happen perfectly! The most efficient timeline and communication, continuous extra effort, and attention to the small details. I am so happy with the outcome of the project and have full confidence in the team’s ability to manage the apartment on my behalf. I would recommend BOMO highly. Landre Pretorius2026-02-19 I couldn’t be happier with the work Clara did on my apartment! From start to finish, she was professional, attentive, and incredibly creative. She took the time to understand my vision and then elevated it with her own design expertise, turning my space into something far more beautiful and functional than I imagined. What impressed me most was her attention to detail—every finish, every corner, every choice felt intentional and perfectly executed. Clara managed the project seamlessly, keeping me updated throughout and making the whole process stress-free. Now, my apartment feels brighter, more spacious, and truly like home. Friends and family can’t stop complimenting the transformation, and I owe it all to Clara’s talent and dedication. If you’re considering a renovation, I wholeheartedly recommend Clara. She doesn’t just remodel spaces—she reimagines them with style, warmth, and precision.
