Homes and buildings in Limpopo
Limpopo is hot for much of the year, so tiled floors are prized for staying cool in houses, lodges and clinics. Polokwane has new estates and shopping centres, while Tzaneen, Hoedspruit and Phalaborwa have game lodges, guesthouses and fruit farms with big covered patios and pool decks. Across villages and towns around Thohoyandou and Mokopane, many families upgrade from screed or old vinyl to ceramic and porcelain, often a room at a time, and Lephalale's power and mining growth drives rental and hostel work. Outdoor tiles should resist heat and be non-slip when wet. Showrooms are concentrated in Polokwane, and tilers often travel far, so confirm availability early.
