Homes and buildings in Welkom
Welkom's wide streets and regular houses date from the goldfields boom, and many floors are now tired. Owners in Riebeeckstad and the older suburbs retile with large, easy-clean porcelain, often replacing carpet or worn vinyl. Mine houses, hostels and compounds in the goldfields need tough, affordable tiles laid in volume. Thabong and Virginia see steady tiling as homes are finished and extended. Farm homes on the surrounding maize and sunflower land ask for cool, hard-wearing floors, and guesthouses refresh rooms and stoeps. Winters bring frost, and summer heat is strong, so the same tile must cope with both. Tilers work locally, with Bloemfontein supplying specialist stock.
Typical tiling tools requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners renovating: a cutter, trowel and spacers for a weekend bathroom or kitchen tiling job
- Workshops, warehouses and gyms: heavy-duty blades and trims for thick floor tiles and tough edges
- Landlords and body corporates: a short saw hire and a few trims for a quick turnaround between tenants
- New builds and extensions: bulk spacers, clips and trims for builders tiling several rooms at once
- Patios, stoeps and pool areas: thick diamond blades and spacers for patios, stoeps and paving
- Guesthouses, hotels and restaurants: trims and nosings that finish stair edges and shower rooms neatly
- Shops, offices and showrooms: levelling clips and diamond blades for large format floors in shops
