Homes and buildings in Johannesburg

Johannesburg is a big, uneven city for tiling. Older suburbs such as Parkview, Melville, Observatory and Linden have original terrazzo, parquet and Marseille tile floors that owners want repaired or matched rather than ripped out. Inner city flats in Berea and Yeoville are usually re-tiled by landlords between tenants, while the northern suburbs lean towards large porcelain slabs and open plan living. Restaurants, offices and shops around Braamfontein and Fourways need hard wearing commercial floors laid over weekends. Summer storms and cold winter nights mean outdoor tiles should be frost resistant, and old screeds on mining ground sometimes crack, so ask the tiler to check the base first.
