Slate, stone and weather in Newcastle
Newcastle is a northern KwaZulu-Natal industrial town in the Drakensberg foothills, with older suburbs like Lennoxton and Fernwood and newer complexes. Owners use charcoal and grey slate on entrance halls and lounges, with rustic slate on patios and braai areas. The weather swings from hot, stormy summers with hail to cold winters with hard frost, so outdoor stone must be dense, well sealed and laid on a solid bed with movement joints. Hail bruises roof tiles and fibre-cement slate-look sheets, and older ones may contain asbestos. Local tile shops and merchants stock common slate and paving, with larger orders delivered from Gauteng or Durban.
Typical roofing accessories requests in the area come from:
- Suburban homes: re-roofing family homes with new underlay, battens and fixings under slate or tiles
- Townhouses and complexes: supplying accessories for complex-wide roof upgrades approved by the body corporate
- Older and heritage homes: supplying copper nails, hooks and flashing for restoring old natural slate roofs
- New builds and developments: supplying underlay, battens and fixings to roofers working on new houses and developments
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: supplying roofing accessories in bulk for hotels, restaurants and offices with large roofs
- Farms, lodges and wine estates: supplying large quantities of underlay and battens for farmhouse, barn and lodge roofs
