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 floor tiles requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners renovating: a new floor through the living areas, a bathroom or kitchen revamp, or a patio for the braai
- Guesthouses, hotels and restaurants: guest rooms, bathrooms, dining areas and kitchens with non-slip, easy-clean floors
- New builds and extensions: tiles for the whole house quoted from the plans, with laying, skirting and trims
- Landlords and body corporates: hard-wearing tiles between tenants, and repairs to cracked or popping tiles
- Patios, stoeps and pool areas: frost-resistant, non-slip tiles for stoeps, patios, balconies and pool surrounds
- Shops, offices and showrooms: large format porcelain or vinyl in shops, offices and showrooms, often laid after hours
- Schools, clinics and public buildings: slip-resistant, easy-clean floors and wall tiles for classrooms, clinics and ablutions
- Workshops, warehouses and gyms: heavy-duty floors for workshops and canteens, and rubber tiles for gyms and garages
