Homes and buildings in Mbombela
Mbombela is hot and humid for much of the year, so cool tiled floors are the norm rather than carpet. Homes in West Acres, Sonheuwel and the estates around the city lean towards large, light porcelain that stays cool underfoot, flowing out to covered patios and pool decks. Lodges and guesthouses near the Kruger gates and in White River need slip-resistant, good-looking floors that can take sandy feet and constant washing. Humidity encourages mould in grout, so sealed or epoxy grout is popular in bathrooms. Packhouses and offices in the citrus and macadamia belt want durable commercial tiles. Showrooms and tilers are based in Mbombela and White River.
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
- Guesthouses, hotels and restaurants: terracotta for guesthouse courtyards, restaurant floors and lodge verandas
- Patios, stoeps and pool areas: frost-rated terracotta for stoeps, courtyards and braai areas, sealed and sloped
- New builds and extensions: terracotta ordered in one batch for farmhouse style houses and outdoor rooms
- Shops, offices and showrooms: feature floors in farm stalls, delis and coffee shops with a rustic look
- Landlords and body corporates: usually avoided indoors because of sealing, but fine for covered stoeps
