Homes and buildings in Western Cape
The Western Cape has wet winters and hot dry summers, so stoeps, patios and entrances get slippery and need R11 tiles. Cape Town, Stellenbosch, Paarl and the Winelands are full of older homes with Oregon pine and original clay or cement floors, and owners often restore rather than replace them. New estates in Durbanville, Somerset West and along the Garden Route want large porcelain and wood-look finishes, while holiday homes in Hermanus and Knysna bring salt air and damp. Wine farms, guesthouses and restaurants tile tasting rooms and bathrooms, and apartments in the city centre are regularly re-tiled between tenants. Showrooms are concentrated in Cape Town and the northern suburbs.
Typical ceramic tiles requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners renovating: budget bedroom floors, bathroom walls and kitchen splashbacks in plenty of colours
- 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
- Shops, offices and showrooms: wall cladding and light-traffic floors in offices, stockrooms and small shops
- Schools, clinics and public buildings: easy-wipe glazed wall tiles for clinics, ablutions and school toilets
- Workshops, warehouses and gyms: wall tiles in canteens and washrooms, with tougher tiles kept for floors
