Slate, stone and weather in Kimberley
Kimberley is a historic diamond city with Victorian and Edwardian homes in Belgravia, Kimberley North and around the Big Hole. Most old roofs are corrugated iron, but slate and stone appear on verandah floors, hearths, thick-walled facades and the occasional original slate roof. Heritage rules may apply to older buildings, so check before changing exteriors. The dry Karoo-edge climate brings very hot summers, frosty winter nights and sudden storms, which stress outdoor tiles and sealers. Shifting soils call for a solid bed and movement joints. Local tile shops and merchants stock common slate, with larger orders and cladding delivered from Bloemfontein, Johannesburg or Cape Town.
Typical slate cleaning and restoration requests in the area come from:
- Older and heritage homes: original slate floors and verandas with generations of polish, wax and dirt to remove
- Suburban homes: dull patios, stoeps and kitchen floors that have gone patchy after years of use
- 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
- New builds and developments: new slate floors with cement haze and grout residue left behind after tiling
- Security and golf estates: large pool decks and entrance floors that need a uniform, even finish again
