Homes and buildings in Eastern Cape
The Eastern Cape runs from the windy coast at Gqeberha, East London and Jeffreys Bay to the Karoo towns of Graaff-Reinet and the rural Transkei around Mthatha. Coastal homes face salt air, wind-blown sand and damp, so sealed grout and tough outdoor tiles matter. Gqeberha and East London have factories, older suburbs with parquet and terrazzo, and busy shopping centres, while Makhanda and Graaff-Reinet have Victorian and Karoo cottages with original clay and stone floors. Around Mthatha many homeowners improve houses step by step, often tiling one room at a time. Holiday homes at Port Alfred and Jeffreys Bay add patio and bathroom work. Tilers usually work from the two metros.
Typical kitchen tiles requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners renovating: a new splashback behind the hob and sink, or a floor to match a kitchen update
- New builds and extensions: kitchen walls and floors quoted with the rest of the house from the plans
- Landlords and body corporates: a plain, wipe-clean splashback and tough floor that a landlord can match later
- Guesthouses, hotels and restaurants: stain-resistant wall tiles and non-slip floors for guesthouse and restaurant kitchens
- Shops, offices and showrooms: easy-clean tiled walls and floors for coffee shops, delis and staff kitchens
- Workshops, warehouses and gyms: heavy-duty floors and wall tiling for canteens and food preparation rooms
- Patios, stoeps and pool areas: tiled splashbacks and worktop surrounds for a built-in braai and outdoor kitchen
- Schools, clinics and public buildings: washable wall tiles and slip-resistant floors for school and clinic kitchens
