Homes and buildings in Durban
Durban's warm, humid air and salty sea breeze shape every floor here. Along the Berea, Musgrave and the beachfront, older flats and homes often have terrazzo or tired vinyl that owners replace with porcelain. In Umhlanga, Morningside and Westville, new apartments and townhouses ask for large format tiles and covered patios. Grout stays damp and grows mould easily, so tilers talk about epoxy grout and good ventilation. Hotels, guesthouses and restaurants along the Golden Mile need hard-wearing, non-slip floors, and pool decks want R11 finishes. Showrooms and tilers work across the metro, with suppliers clustered in the southern and western industrial areas.
Typical terrazzo tiles requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners renovating: a polished terrazzo kitchen and passage, or an old floor ground back to life
- Guesthouses, hotels and restaurants: polished terrazzo for reception areas, restaurant floors and bar fronts
- Landlords and body corporates: restoring an existing terrazzo floor instead of recarpeting between tenants
- New builds and extensions: poured terrazzo or precast tiles for feature floors, quoted from the plans
- Patios, stoeps and pool areas: textured terrazzo steps and covered walkways, sealed and kept non-slip
- Shops, offices and showrooms: seamless, tough terrazzo for shops, banks and showroom floors
