Homes and buildings in George
George sits below the Outeniqua Mountains on the Garden Route, with mild temperatures and rain in every month of the year, often drizzly and damp. That damp makes mould in grout and on outdoor tiles a regular complaint, so owners choose sealed, non-slip finishes. Houses in Heatherlands, Blanco and Fancourt range from older brick homes to large golf estates with big tiled patios, and holiday homes toward Wilderness and Herold's Bay are tiled for easy cleaning. Guesthouses and retirement villages create steady work for tilers. Pacaltsdorp and Thembalethu see ongoing extensions. Showrooms in George supply the area, and larger orders sometimes arrive from Cape Town.
Typical terracotta tiles requests in the area come from:
- 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
- Guesthouses, hotels and restaurants: terracotta for guesthouse courtyards, restaurant floors and lodge verandas
- New builds and extensions: terracotta ordered in one batch for farmhouse style houses and outdoor rooms
- Landlords and body corporates: usually avoided indoors because of sealing, but fine for covered stoeps
- Schools, clinics and public buildings: rarely used in clinics or schools because of porosity and cleaning needs
- Shops, offices and showrooms: feature floors in farm stalls, delis and coffee shops with a rustic look
