Homes and buildings in Cape Town
Cape Town has wet winters, dry windy summers and salt air along the coast. Victorian terraces in Woodstock and Salt River, and old Cape homes in Claremont, often have Oregon pine boards or original clay and encaustic tiles that deserve careful repair. Atlantic Seaboard apartments and Southern Suburbs houses want large porcelain slabs, and wet stoeps and pool surrounds call for R11 non-slip finishes. Century City and Montague Gardens have offices, showrooms and warehouses needing hard-wearing floors. Khayelitsha and Mitchells Plain add steady demand from owners tiling room by room. Showrooms and tilers work across the peninsula, and many specialise in stone and bathrooms.
Typical mosaic tiles requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners renovating: a shower floor, a kitchen splashback or a feature wall in the bathroom
- Patios, stoeps and pool areas: frost-rated porcelain and glass mosaic for pool edges, steps and outdoor showers
- New builds and extensions: mosaic feature walls and shower floors specified from the plans and ordered once
- Landlords and body corporates: a small mosaic splashback to lift a plain flat without much cost
- Shops, offices and showrooms: mosaic panels behind counters and in entrances, in tougher porcelain or stone
- Guesthouses, hotels and restaurants: glass and stone mosaics for spa walls, bar fronts and bathroom feature panels
- Workshops, warehouses and gyms: porcelain mosaics for wash bays and ablutions where a grippy floor matters
- Schools, clinics and public buildings: small non-slip porcelain mosaics for ablution and shower floors in clinics
