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 tilers requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners renovating: a tiler for one bathroom, the kitchen or every floor in the house
- Landlords and body corporates: quick, tidy floor and wall replacements between tenants at a fixed price per m²
- Guesthouses, hotels and restaurants: night or off-season tiling for guest rooms, kitchens, bars and stoeps
- Patios, stoeps and pool areas: tilers who build falls and movement joints for patios and pool surrounds
- Shops, offices and showrooms: large format floors laid in short windows around trading hours
- New builds and extensions: a tiling team that follows the plasterers and keeps pace with the builder
- Schools, clinics and public buildings: slip-resistant floors laid in phases so classrooms and clinics stay in use
