Mthatha notes on floors & boards

Around Mthatha, humidity and summer storms make moisture-tolerant choices worth a look. Vinyl and wood-look tiles cope well in kitchens and entrance halls, while laminate and engineered boards suit dry living rooms. Solid timber is chosen for offices and guesthouses in town. Homes in Qunu and Mqanduli are often on slabs, so ask suppliers about a damp check and delivery to your road before agreeing a price.

Floors and homes in Mthatha

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.
