Slate, stone and weather in Welkom
Welkom is a planned gold-mining town laid out in circular suburbs, and many uniform mine-era brick houses are now being renovated. Owners replace worn lounge and passage floors with charcoal or grey slate, add slate to stoeps and braai areas, and clad garden walls and entrances in stone. Flat Free State plains bring hard winter frost, so outdoor tiles need frost-tolerant, well-sealed stone and a solid bed. Summer hail marks old tile and fibre-cement roofs, and slate-look sheets from earlier decades may contain asbestos, so have them checked before any work. Local merchants stock common tiles and paving, with larger slate orders delivered from Bloemfontein.

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
- 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
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: black slate floors and bar fronts in restaurants, hotels and showrooms
- Security and golf estates: dark slate floors and feature walls that suit the clean lines of modern estate homes
