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 rustic slate tiles requests in the area come from:
- Suburban homes: rustic slate on braai patios, entrance halls and kitchen floors that need warmth
- Townhouses and complexes: rustic slate on small patios and hearths, with colours agreed with the body corporate
- Farms, lodges and wine estates: rustic slate in farmhouse kitchens, lodge stoeps and wine estate tasting rooms
- New builds and developments: rustic slate chosen with face brick and timber so colours work together in the new house
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: multicolour slate floors and walls in restaurants, lodges and boutique hotels
- Security and golf estates: multicolour slate feature walls and entrance floors in estate homes with natural finishes
