Mthatha: climate, homes and floors
Mthatha has a humid, summer-rain climate in green rolling hill country, where damp air and heavy storms test any timber laid near an open door or an unsealed edge. Housing ranges from town houses and flats around the centre to large family homes and homesteads in the villages beyond, mostly on concrete slabs, with older buildings that may have suspended floors. Demand tends to come from homeowners, schools, clinics, guesthouses and offices. Because many specialist fitters and timber merchants are based in larger centres, some travel in for bigger jobs, so ask early about travel costs and lead times.
