Slate, stone and weather in Pinetown
Pinetown sits inland of Durban on the hills, with older suburbs like Cowies Hill and Moseley and leafy neighbours such as Hillcrest and Kloof. Steep stands lead to terraced gardens, retaining walls and split-level patios, which suit stone cladding and slate steps and paving. Warm, humid weather and heavy summer rain mean mould on shaded slate, so falls, drainage and a non-slip finish matter. Cracked paving often traces back to poor drainage behind walls. Townhouse complexes usually need body corporate approval for finishes. Mid-century homes may still carry original tile or slate-look roofs. The industrial areas nearby hold tile suppliers, paving yards and merchants, with quick delivery across the hills.
Typical slate bathroom tiling requests in the area come from:
- Suburban homes: a slate shower and bathroom floor in a family home renovation with a freestanding bath
- Townhouses and complexes: slate floor tiles in a compact en-suite, with noise and body corporate rules in mind
- Security and golf estates: dark slate walls and walk-in showers in a modern, architect-designed estate bathroom
- Older and heritage homes: slate floors in a restored bathroom that suits older timber doors and sash windows
- New builds and developments: slate planned with the builder for screed levels, waterproofing and drains before tiling starts
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: hard-wearing slate in hotel, lodge and restaurant bathrooms that see heavy use every day
