Homes and buildings in Centurion

Centurion is mostly security estates, townhouse complexes and newer family homes, so most tiling here is done to a plan. Buyers in Irene, Eldoraigne and Heuweloord often upgrade the show house finishes with large format porcelain, wood look planks and tiled covered patios facing the garden. Estate rules usually set working hours and require tilers to be registered at the gate, which matters when booking. Body corporates handle shared passages and entrance floors, and hotels and offices around Lyttelton and Route 21 re-tile lobbies and conference areas. Many homes sit on fill and clay, so movement joints in big open floors are worth asking about before the first tile goes down.

Typical terracotta tiles requests in the area come from:

• New builds and extensions: terracotta ordered in one batch for farmhouse style houses and outdoor rooms
• Homeowners renovating: a Cape style kitchen floor, a sunroom or a warm stoep off the lounge
• Patios, stoeps and pool areas: frost-rated terracotta for stoeps, courtyards and braai areas, sealed and sloped
• Landlords and body corporates: usually avoided indoors because of sealing, but fine for covered stoeps
• Shops, offices and showrooms: feature floors in farm stalls, delis and coffee shops with a rustic look
• Guesthouses, hotels and restaurants: terracotta for guesthouse courtyards, restaurant floors and lodge verandas
• Schools, clinics and public buildings: rarely used in clinics or schools because of porosity and cleaning needs
