Slate, stone and weather in Kimberley
Kimberley is a historic diamond city with Victorian and Edwardian homes in Belgravia, Kimberley North and around the Big Hole. Most old roofs are corrugated iron, but slate and stone appear on verandah floors, hearths, thick-walled facades and the occasional original slate roof. Heritage rules may apply to older buildings, so check before changing exteriors. The dry Karoo-edge climate brings very hot summers, frosty winter nights and sudden storms, which stress outdoor tiles and sealers. Shifting soils call for a solid bed and movement joints. Local tile shops and merchants stock common slate, with larger orders and cladding delivered from Bloemfontein, Johannesburg or Cape Town.

Typical roof tiles requests in the area come from:
- Older and heritage homes: clay or slate tiles that match the character of older homes, subject to local rules
- Suburban homes: re-tiling a family home roof, often moving from worn concrete to a new colour
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: roof tiles for restaurants, hotels and offices, with delivery timed around trading
- 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
- Security and golf estates: roof tiles chosen from the approved colours and profiles in the estate design guidelines
