Homes and buildings in Kariega

Kariega, still called Uitenhage by many, sits on a hot, dry plain behind Algoa Bay, with strong winds and sharp summer heat. The motor industry shapes the town, so factories, workshops and training centres need tough, easy-clean industrial floors. Houses in Despatch, Rosedale and the older streets around Market Street often have face brick walls and basic ceramic floors that owners upgrade with porcelain. KwaNobuhle has a lot of new RDP-style housing and extensions, usually tiled room by room. Cool tiles help during hot spells. Showrooms in town and in Gqeberha supply local tilers, and larger orders usually arrive from Gqeberha within a day or two.
