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 pool tiles requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners renovating: a new waterline band, a retile of an old faded pool, or fresh coping and paving
- Guesthouses, hotels and restaurants: a full mosaic pool and a non-slip surround for a guesthouse, hotel or lodge
- Patios, stoeps and pool areas: waterline tiles, coping and R12 pavers around a garden pool, with salt-proof grout
