Slate, stone and weather in Richards Bay
Richards Bay is a port town on the Zululand coast, with suburbs like Meerensee, Arboretum and Aquadene and coastal homes at Mtunzini. Hot humid weather, salt air and heavy summer rain suit slate only when it is well chosen and cared for: sealed, non-slip cleft stone on patios and pool surrounds, with falls so water runs off. Mould and algae grow quickly in shade, and sandy soils shift under paving, so a firm base matters. Salt can attack weak adhesive beds, so use flexible, polymer-modified adhesive. Local merchants stock common tiles and paving, while slate, cladding and special orders usually come from Durban and are delivered north.

Typical rustic slate tiles requests in the area come from:
- Coastal and holiday homes: tumbled rustic slate on decks and outdoor showers, sealed to resist salt air
- Suburban homes: rustic slate on braai patios, entrance halls and kitchen floors that need warmth
- Security and golf estates: multicolour slate feature walls and entrance floors in estate homes with natural finishes
- Townhouses and complexes: rustic slate on small patios and hearths, with colours agreed with the body corporate
- 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
