Homes and buildings in Northern Cape
The Northern Cape is vast, dry and sparsely settled, with Kimberley, Upington, Kathu, Springbok and Kuruman as the main centres. Dust, strong sun and large temperature swings between day and night shape tile choices, with dense porcelain holding up better than soft ceramic on exposed stoeps. Older farmhouses and Victorian homes in Kimberley often have stone, clay or timber floors that owners repair or cover. Mining towns around Kathu and Postmasburg need tiling for houses, hostels and offices, and Upington lodges and guesthouses serve the tourist trade. Distances are huge, so many customers order tiles from a supplier in a bigger town, and tilers combine trips to save on travel costs.
Typical ceramic tiles requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners renovating: budget bedroom floors, bathroom walls and kitchen splashbacks in plenty of colours
- Workshops, warehouses and gyms: wall tiles in canteens and washrooms, with tougher tiles kept for floors
- Guesthouses, hotels and restaurants: glazed wall tiles for en-suites and guest bathrooms, with porcelain on busy floors
- New builds and extensions: affordable wall and floor tiles for houses and units priced in bulk from the plans
- Landlords and body corporates: cost-effective tiles for flats and rooms that are easy to replace between tenants
- Patios, stoeps and pool areas: better avoided in frost areas, with porcelain used on stoeps and patios
- Schools, clinics and public buildings: easy-wipe glazed wall tiles for clinics, ablutions and school toilets
- Shops, offices and showrooms: wall cladding and light-traffic floors in offices, stockrooms and small shops
