Colonial-era sandstone and brick buildings in the town centre, along Murchison Street and around the town hall, often keep their original floors, so repairs and careful matching matter.

Farmhouses and lodges toward Colenso and Van Reenen like slate, terracotta and cool stone floors. Shopping centres and clinics need easy-clean porcelain. Showrooms in town supply most tilers, and bigger orders are brought up from Pietermaritzburg or Durban.
