Slate, stone and weather in Cape Town
Cape Town mixes mountain, sea and wine-country weather, so slate is used differently by suburb. Atlantic Seaboard homes face salt and wind, Southern Suburbs and Constantia have large gardens, pools and Cape Dutch houses, and Victorian terraces in Woodstock and Observatory still carry original slate or iron roofs. Winter rain and damp keep shaded stone wet, so a non-slip cleft finish, falls and sealing are important. Heritage controls apply to many older buildings. Wind-driven rain finds weak flashings and wet screeds cause efflorescence. Tile shops, stone and paving yards and builders' merchants are plentiful across the metro, and suppliers deliver to the Peninsula, Winelands and West Coast.
Typical black slate tiles requests in the area come from:
- Coastal and holiday homes: black slate showers and decks, sealed carefully against salt air and humidity
- Older and heritage homes: dark slate hearths and hall floors that sit well with period features in older homes
- Suburban homes: honed black slate in kitchens, bathrooms and entrance halls of family homes
- Security and golf estates: dark slate floors and feature walls that suit the clean lines of modern estate homes
- Townhouses and complexes: black slate bathrooms and small entrance floors that make compact rooms feel smart
- New builds and developments: black slate chosen early so floor levels, sealing and lighting suit the finished room
