Homes and buildings in Upington
Upington lies on the Orange River in the Kalahari, where summer heat is fierce and winters are short and dry. Tiled floors are the standard in homes and lodges because they stay cool, and light colours reflect the sun. Owners along the river, in Kakamas and Keimoes, tile covered patios, pool surrounds and outdoor kitchens, where non-slip finishes and heat tolerance matter. Packing houses for raisins, dates and grapes need hygienic, washable floors. Guesthouses and lodges want durable, natural-look tiles that handle sand and heavy foot traffic. Red sand finds its way in, so smooth grout lines clean more easily. Tilers work from Upington along the valley, with stock sometimes coming from Kimberley.
Typical outdoor tiles requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners renovating: a new patio or stoep, a path to the braai, or a balcony floor that no longer drains
- Guesthouses, hotels and restaurants: non-slip terraces, deck areas and pool paths at guesthouses and lodges
- Patios, stoeps and pool areas: braai areas, pool surrounds, balconies and covered stoeps with R11 or R12 tiles
- Workshops, warehouses and gyms: hard-wearing outdoor paving for yards, entrances and garden areas at workplaces
- New builds and extensions: patios, entrances and driveways-side paving quoted with the house from the plans
- Shops, offices and showrooms: entrance paving and outdoor seating areas at shops and coffee shops
- Landlords and body corporates: tough non-slip tiles for communal stoeps and walkways that tenants cannot damage
