What to know locally in Mpumalanga
Choose floors by altitude here. Around Mbombela and White River the air is warm and damp, so engineered boards, wood-look tiles and well-sealed hardwood handle the Lowveld better than cheap laminate. Up on the plateau in Middelburg and eMalahleni the winters are dry and cold. Suppliers in Mbombela serve most buyers, and lodges near Hazyview often order timber in bulk for several rooms together.
What lies underfoot in Mpumalanga
Mpumalanga runs from the cool Highveld around Middelburg and Ermelo down the escarpment to the warm, humid Lowveld near Mbombela and Hazyview. A board that behaves on the plateau can cup in the Lowveld, so ask where the timber was stored and how it was dried. Housing ranges from mine and power station houses in the coalfields to lodges, guesthouses and farmhouses with thatch overhead and verandas outside. Many lodge owners want hardwood and decks that cope with heat, rain and insects. Local carpenters and small flooring firms do most of the work, with larger jobs sometimes quoted from Gauteng.
The requests we see from Mpumalanga usually come from:
- Guesthouses, lodges and restaurants: slip-resistant wood-look tiles in restaurants, patios and lodge bathrooms
- Homeowners: wood-look planks through kitchens, bathrooms and the stoep, easy to mop
- Builders, developers and renovators: large plank tiles priced per square metre and laid once the screed is flat and dry
