Slate, stone and weather in Kariega
Kariega, still called Uitenhage by many, is a motor-industry town at the foot of the Winterhoek mountains, with older central suburbs, newer estates and farms along the Sundays River and Addo. Many homes are single-storey plastered or face-brick houses with tiled roofs, and owners add slate to entrance halls, stoeps and braai areas. Heritage buildings in the central area suit careful stone and slate repairs. The climate is dry and warm with sudden cold fronts and strong winds, so dust and sun wear sealers quickly. Lodges and farm stays near Addo favour rustic stone. Local merchants stock common tiles, with larger slate orders delivered from Gqeberha.

Typical black slate tiles requests in the area come from:
- Suburban homes: honed black slate in kitchens, bathrooms and entrance halls of family homes
- Older and heritage homes: dark slate hearths and hall floors that sit well with period features in older homes
- Farms, lodges and wine estates: dark slate floors and hearths in farmhouses and lodges that hide daily wear
- New builds and developments: black slate chosen early so floor levels, sealing and lighting suit the finished room
- Security and golf estates: dark slate floors and feature walls that suit the clean lines of modern estate homes
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: black slate floors and bar fronts in restaurants, hotels and showrooms
