Slate, stone and weather in Free State
Free State homes face cold, frosty winters and hot, stormy summers, which is hard on outdoor stone. Frost lifts poorly bedded paving and cracks tiles laid on weak screeds, so flexible adhesive, a full bed and movement joints matter. Hail damages roof slates and tiles across the open plains. Bloemfontein has older sandstone and Victorian-era houses, while farmhouses and guest lodges use slate and stone cladding on verandas and fireplaces. Tile shops, paving yards and builders' merchants cluster in the larger towns, and delivery to farms and smaller towns is routine.
Typical outdoor slate tiles requests in the area come from:
- Suburban homes: cleft slate on back patios, braai areas and the stoep leading into the garden
- Farms, lodges and wine estates: rustic slate on farmhouse stoeps, lodge terraces and guest house courtyards
- Older and heritage homes: slate on front verandas and garden paths that match the character of older homes
- New builds and developments: slate patios planned with falls and drainage as part of the new house build
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: slate terraces at restaurants, hotels and lodges where guests walk barefoot or in sandals
- Townhouses and complexes: slate on small courtyards and patios, within body corporate or HOA finish rules
