Slate, stone and weather in Sandton

Sandton homes lean toward high-end design, so slate and stone appear in large entrance halls, courtyards, pool terraces, indoor-outdoor lounges and feature walls. Architects often specify calibrated honed or natural cleft slate for a clean look. Walled properties with mature gardens mean access, and estates may limit delivery times. Summer storms and hail test outdoor stone, and frost can lift thin paving. Showrooms, tile shops and stone yards are close, and many suppliers work with architects, interior designers and developers. Ask for samples in daylight before committing to a colour.
