Homes and buildings in Pinetown
Pinetown climbs the hills inland of Durban, where summer storms are heavy and the air stays humid. Homes in Hillcrest, Kloof and Westville range from 1970s face-brick houses with old quarry tiles to new gated estates with open-plan living. Owners often replace dated floors with wood-look porcelain and tile the entertainment decks that catch the summer rain. Factories and warehouses in New Germany and Westmead need tough floors, and pharmacies and shops along the Old Main Road ask for easy-clean tiles. Landlords in Queensburgh refresh flats between tenants. Tilers and tile suppliers usually work from Pinetown itself or the wider Durban metro.
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
- New builds and extensions: terracotta ordered in one batch for farmhouse style houses and outdoor rooms
- Workshops, warehouses and gyms: not usually chosen, since oil and heavy traffic stain porous clay
- 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
- Patios, stoeps and pool areas: frost-rated terracotta for stoeps, courtyards and braai areas, sealed and sloped
- Schools, clinics and public buildings: rarely used in clinics or schools because of porosity and cleaning needs
