Homes and buildings in George
George sits below the Outeniqua Mountains on the Garden Route, with mild temperatures and rain in every month of the year, often drizzly and damp. That damp makes mould in grout and on outdoor tiles a regular complaint, so owners choose sealed, non-slip finishes. Houses in Heatherlands, Blanco and Fancourt range from older brick homes to large golf estates with big tiled patios, and holiday homes toward Wilderness and Herold's Bay are tiled for easy cleaning. Guesthouses and retirement villages create steady work for tilers. Pacaltsdorp and Thembalethu see ongoing extensions. Showrooms in George supply the area, and larger orders sometimes arrive from Cape Town.
Typical natural stone tiles requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners renovating: a stone entrance hall, a travertine lounge floor or a marble bathroom
