Homes and buildings in Pietermaritzburg
Pietermaritzburg sits in a warm basin in the Midlands, with hot summers and cool, dry winters that can bring frost on higher ground. The older suburbs of Scottsville, Clarendon and Hayfields have Victorian and Edwardian houses with original wooden floors and encaustic hall tiles that owners like to repair rather than rip out. Student flats near the university and the city centre need cheap, durable tiling between intakes. Lodges, wedding venues and guest farms toward Howick and Hilton want natural stone and slate. Mkondeni and Willowton have workshops and showrooms, and tilers usually work from the city or travel in from Durban.
Typical tile painting requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners renovating: refreshing dated bathroom walls or a kitchen splashback without retiling
- Landlords and body corporates: a cheap update for old tiles between tenants, without demolition mess
- Guesthouses, hotels and restaurants: repainting guest bathroom walls and bar areas to match a new look
- Patios, stoeps and pool areas: painting wall tiles on covered stoeps, never in standing water
- Shops, offices and showrooms: fast colour changes on wall tiles in shop fronts and toilets
- New builds and extensions: a colour change on tiles that arrived in the wrong shade
- Schools, clinics and public buildings: washable, water-resistant coatings on wall tiles in ablutions
