Slate, stone and weather in Kathu
Kathu is a mining town on the Kalahari edge, with newer face-brick houses, complexes and lodges around the camel thorn veld. Owners use slate and stone on patios, pool surrounds, carports and entrance halls, and rustic stone suits the red sand surroundings. Summers are fiercely hot, so dark slate can burn bare feet in full sun, and UV breaks down sealers fast. Cold winter nights and rare heavy storms add movement, so use flexible adhesive, a full bed and movement joints. Dust makes honed or sealed floors easier to keep clean. Local merchants stock basic tiles, but slate, cladding and special orders are delivered from Kuruman, Kimberley or Gauteng.
Typical roof restoration requests in the area come from:
- Suburban homes: cleaning, repairing and recolouring a faded concrete tile roof on a family home
- Townhouses and complexes: restoring a whole complex roof in one programme, arranged by the managing agent
- Farms, lodges and wine estates: restoring large roofs on farmhouses and lodges where replacement would cost far more
- New builds and developments: sealing and finishing new tiled roofs, or putting right poor workmanship before handover
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: restoring roofs on offices, hotels and restaurants to protect the building and its look
- Security and golf estates: restoring roofs to the colour approved by the estate, with a clean finish
