Homes and buildings in Durban
Durban's warm, humid air and salty sea breeze shape every floor here. Along the Berea, Musgrave and the beachfront, older flats and homes often have terrazzo or tired vinyl that owners replace with porcelain. In Umhlanga, Morningside and Westville, new apartments and townhouses ask for large format tiles and covered patios. Grout stays damp and grows mould easily, so tilers talk about epoxy grout and good ventilation. Hotels, guesthouses and restaurants along the Golden Mile need hard-wearing, non-slip floors, and pool decks want R11 finishes. Showrooms and tilers work across the metro, with suppliers clustered in the southern and western industrial areas.
Typical pool tiles requests in the area come from:
