Roof Tiles for Durban projects

Slate, stone and weather in Durban
Durban is a warm, humid coastal city where slate is used on verandahs, pool decks, bathrooms and feature walls from Umhlanga and Berea to Westville. Salt air, heavy summer rain and constant humidity grow mould and algae on shaded stone, so choose a non-slip cleft finish, give outdoor areas proper falls and clean with pH-neutral products. Sealing protects against salt and stains, and moisture rising through screeds can cause white efflorescence. Flat roofs and balconies need sound waterproofing under tiles. Tile shops, stone and paving yards and builders' merchants are spread across the metro, and many suppliers deliver to the South Coast, North Coast and inland hills.
Typical roof tiles requests in the area come from:
- Coastal and holiday homes: salt-tolerant tile choices and fixings for roofs exposed to wind, humidity and sea air
- Suburban homes: re-tiling a family home roof, often moving from worn concrete to a new colour
- Security and golf estates: roof tiles chosen from the approved colours and profiles in the estate design guidelines
- Townhouses and complexes: matching tiles across a complex, ordered from one batch and agreed with the body corporate
- New builds and developments: tiles ordered to match the plans, with pallets delivered when the trusses are ready
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: roof tiles for restaurants, hotels and offices, with delivery timed around trading
