Homes and buildings in Worcester
Worcester lies in the Breede River Valley, where summers are very hot and dry, and winters are cold, wet and frosty at night. Cool floors matter in summer, so many homeowners choose light porcelain or terracotta for living areas and shaded stoeps. Older Cape homes in the town centre have original clay and wooden floors, and farmhouses on the vineyard and orchard farms around Robertson and De Doorns favour stone and slate. Packhouses and cellars need washable, hard-wearing floors. Zwelethemba and Avian Park have steady extensions and upgrades. Tile showrooms in town supply local tilers, and larger or specialist orders usually come from Paarl or Cape Town.
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
- Workshops, warehouses and gyms: hard-wearing outdoor paving for yards, entrances and garden areas at workplaces
- 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
- New builds and extensions: patios, entrances and driveways-side paving quoted with the house from the plans
- Landlords and body corporates: tough non-slip tiles for communal stoeps and walkways that tenants cannot damage
- Schools, clinics and public buildings: slip-resistant ramps, walkways and covered areas at schools and clinics
