Slate, stone and weather in Welkom
Welkom is a planned gold-mining town laid out in circular suburbs, and many uniform mine-era brick houses are now being renovated. Owners replace worn lounge and passage floors with charcoal or grey slate, add slate to stoeps and braai areas, and clad garden walls and entrances in stone. Flat Free State plains bring hard winter frost, so outdoor tiles need frost-tolerant, well-sealed stone and a solid bed. Summer hail marks old tile and fibre-cement roofs, and slate-look sheets from earlier decades may contain asbestos, so have them checked before any work. Local merchants stock common tiles and paving, with larger slate orders delivered from Bloemfontein.

Typical roof restoration requests in the area come from:
- Suburban homes: cleaning, repairing and recolouring a faded concrete tile roof on a family home
- Older and heritage homes: careful cleaning and repair of older roofs, with minimal coating on slate and clay
- Townhouses and complexes: restoring a whole complex roof in one programme, arranged by the managing agent
- 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
