Slate, stone and weather in KwaZulu-Natal
KwaZulu-Natal mixes humid coast, warm midlands and cool Berg foothills, so slate is chosen for different reasons. On the coast, salt air and humidity call for good sealing and a non-slip cleft finish around pools and decks. Heavy summer rain and humidity grow algae on shaded paving. Midlands homes and lodges use slate and stone cladding for fireplaces and entrance halls, and Pietermaritzburg has older character homes. Tile shops and stone yards are concentrated around Durban and Pietermaritzburg, with delivery to the North and South Coasts and outlying farms.

Typical slate bathroom tiling requests in the area come from:
- Coastal and holiday homes: sealed slate in a holiday home bathroom that copes with sand, salt air and humidity
- Suburban homes: a slate shower and bathroom floor in a family home renovation with a freestanding bath
- Security and golf estates: dark slate walls and walk-in showers in a modern, architect-designed estate bathroom
- Townhouses and complexes: slate floor tiles in a compact en-suite, with noise and body corporate rules in mind
- Farms, lodges and wine estates: rustic slate in a lodge or guest house bathroom, matching the stone and timber around it
- Older and heritage homes: slate floors in a restored bathroom that suits older timber doors and sash windows
