Slate, stone and weather in Pinetown
Pinetown sits inland of Durban on the hills, with older suburbs like Cowies Hill and Moseley and leafy neighbours such as Hillcrest and Kloof. Steep stands lead to terraced gardens, retaining walls and split-level patios, which suit stone cladding and slate steps and paving. Warm, humid weather and heavy summer rain mean mould on shaded slate, so falls, drainage and a non-slip finish matter. Cracked paving often traces back to poor drainage behind walls. Townhouse complexes usually need body corporate approval for finishes. Mid-century homes may still carry original tile or slate-look roofs. The industrial areas nearby hold tile suppliers, paving yards and merchants, with quick delivery across the hills.
Typical fibre cement slates requests in the area come from:
- Suburban homes: a lighter slate-look re-roof on a family home whose trusses cannot take natural slate
- Townhouses and complexes: uniform slate-look roofing across a complex, supplied from one batch for matching colour
- Security and golf estates: slate-look roofs on estate homes where the design guidelines allow a manufactured slate
- Older and heritage homes: a lighter alternative on older homes, only where heritage and neighbour rules allow it
- New builds and developments: specified from the plans stage so lighter trusses and standard battens can be used
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: slate-look roofing on offices and restaurants where a quick, even finish is wanted
