Slate, stone and weather in Free State
Free State homes face cold, frosty winters and hot, stormy summers, which is hard on outdoor stone. Frost lifts poorly bedded paving and cracks tiles laid on weak screeds, so flexible adhesive, a full bed and movement joints matter. Hail damages roof slates and tiles across the open plains. Bloemfontein has older sandstone and Victorian-era houses, while farmhouses and guest lodges use slate and stone cladding on verandas and fireplaces. Tile shops, paving yards and builders' merchants cluster in the larger towns, and delivery to farms and smaller towns is routine.
Typical slate cleaning and restoration requests in the area come from:
- Suburban homes: dull patios, stoeps and kitchen floors that have gone patchy after years of use
- Farms, lodges and wine estates: dusty stoeps, lodge floors and braai areas with ground-in dirt and grease marks
- Older and heritage homes: original slate floors and verandas with generations of polish, wax and dirt to remove
- New builds and developments: new slate floors with cement haze and grout residue left behind after tiling
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: restaurant and hotel floors with grease, foot traffic and spills built up over time
- Townhouses and complexes: shared courtyards and private patios where moss and stains build up in shade

- Say when the slate was last cleaned or sealed, if you know.
