Slate, stone and weather in Eastern Cape
The Eastern Cape runs from the windy coast around Gqeberha and East London to the cooler Karoo-edge towns inland. Coastal homes and holiday houses use slate around pools and on decks, where salt air and sand wear sealers quickly. Makhanda and Komani have older sandstone and Victorian homes, and some heritage roofs. Inland, frost and summer storms test outdoor paving and roofs. Farmhouses and guest lodges favour rustic slate and stone cladding. Tile shops and paving yards are in the main centres, with delivery by truck to smaller towns and farms.
Typical fibre cement slates requests in the area come from:
- Coastal and holiday homes: slate-look roofs for coastal homes where weight, wind and salt air all matter
- Suburban homes: a lighter slate-look re-roof on a family home whose trusses cannot take natural slate
- Older and heritage homes: a lighter alternative on older homes, only where heritage and neighbour rules allow it
- Farms, lodges and wine estates: slate-look roofs on farm buildings and guest houses, supplied in bulk and delivered to site
- New builds and developments: specified from the plans stage so lighter trusses and standard battens can be used
- Townhouses and complexes: uniform slate-look roofing across a complex, supplied from one batch for matching colour
