Slate, stone and weather in Mbombela
Mbombela in the Lowveld is warm and humid, with lush gardens and heavy summer rain. Slate is popular on verandas, around pools, in outdoor showers and on feature walls, and lodges and guest houses near Kruger use rustic slate and stone cladding. Humidity and shade grow algae and mould on stone, so sealing and drainage matter, and a non-slip cleft finish helps around pools. Termites and damp are separate building issues. Tile shops and stone yards serve Mbombela and White River, with delivery to Hazyview, Sabie and outlying farms.
