Slate, stone and weather in Worcester
Worcester is a Breede River Valley town surrounded by vineyards, orchards and mountains, with older Cape Dutch and Victorian homes and newer complexes. Slate and stone are used on stoeps, courtyards, entrance halls and farm-stall and cellar floors. Summers are very hot and dry, so sealers fade on open terraces and dark slate gets hot in direct sun, while winter brings cold rain, frost and occasional snow on nearby peaks. Frost can crack thin or poorly bedded outdoor tiles, so use dense stone, flexible adhesive and a full bed. Heritage rules may apply to older buildings. Tile shops and merchants serve the town, with larger slate orders delivered from Paarl or Cape Town.
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
- Older and heritage homes: slate on front verandas and garden paths that match the character of older homes
- Farms, lodges and wine estates: rustic slate on farmhouse stoeps, lodge terraces and guest house courtyards
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: slate terraces at restaurants, hotels and lodges where guests walk barefoot or in sandals
- New builds and developments: slate patios planned with falls and drainage as part of the new house build
- Security and golf estates: dark slate decks and walkways beside pools and entertainment areas in modern estate homes
