Slate, stone and weather in Klerksdorp
Klerksdorp is an old gold town on the Schoonspruit with mid-century plastered homes in the older suburbs and newer estates spreading along the N12. Owners here tile entrance halls and lounges in charcoal or grey slate, and add slate to stoeps and braai areas. Settlement cracks from clay soils and old mining ground make a solid bed and flexible adhesive important. Frost on winter mornings can lift poorly bedded outdoor tiles, and summer hail marks tile roofs. Slate-look fibre-cement roofs on older houses may contain asbestos, so have them checked before any work. Local tile shops and merchants stock floor tiles and paving, with larger slate orders delivered from Gauteng.
