Slate, stone and weather in Sasolburg
Sasolburg grew around the chemical works on the Vaal River, with planned suburbs of brick houses and townhouse complexes, plus holiday and weekend homes near the Vaal Dam. Slate suits braai areas, decks, pool surrounds and entrance halls, and stone cladding is common on boundary walls and pillars. Winter frost on the Highveld can crack thin outdoor tiles, so a solid adhesive bed and sealing are important. Industrial dust and storms with hail dull unsealed stone and bruise roofs. Older houses with slate-look fibre-cement roofs may contain asbestos and need checking. Local merchants stock tiles and paving, with bigger stone orders delivered from Vanderbijlpark or Johannesburg yards.
Typical slate fireplace requests in the area come from:
- Suburban homes: a slate surround and hearth in the family lounge, ready for cold Highveld evenings
- Security and golf estates: a full-height black slate chimney breast in a modern open-plan lounge on an estate
- Townhouses and complexes: a compact slate hearth and surround in a townhouse lounge, within complex rules
- New builds and developments: slate surround planned with the builder so the chimney, hearth and wall are ready
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: a slate fireplace feature in a restaurant, hotel lounge or lodge reception
