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 mosaic tiles requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners renovating: a shower floor, a kitchen splashback or a feature wall in the bathroom
- Guesthouses, hotels and restaurants: glass and stone mosaics for spa walls, bar fronts and bathroom feature panels
- 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
- Patios, stoeps and pool areas: frost-rated porcelain and glass mosaic for pool edges, steps and outdoor showers
- Shops, offices and showrooms: mosaic panels behind counters and in entrances, in tougher porcelain or stone
- Schools, clinics and public buildings: small non-slip porcelain mosaics for ablution and shower floors in clinics
- Workshops, warehouses and gyms: porcelain mosaics for wash bays and ablutions where a grippy floor matters
