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 wood-look tiles requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners renovating: a warm timber look through the lounge and bedrooms without sanding or varnishing
- Landlords and body corporates: scratch-proof plank floors that look good in photos and survive tenants and pets
- Guesthouses, hotels and restaurants: a timber look for guest rooms, lounges and restaurants that cleans quickly
