Slate, stone and weather in Richards Bay
Richards Bay is a port town on the Zululand coast, with suburbs like Meerensee, Arboretum and Aquadene and coastal homes at Mtunzini. Hot humid weather, salt air and heavy summer rain suit slate only when it is well chosen and cared for: sealed, non-slip cleft stone on patios and pool surrounds, with falls so water runs off. Mould and algae grow quickly in shade, and sandy soils shift under paving, so a firm base matters. Salt can attack weak adhesive beds, so use flexible, polymer-modified adhesive. Local merchants stock common tiles and paving, while slate, cladding and special orders usually come from Durban and are delivered north.
Typical slate floor tiles requests in the area come from:
- Coastal and holiday homes: slate floors that stay cool in summer and handle sand tracked in from the beach
- Suburban homes: grey slate floors running through the kitchen, dining room and lounge of family homes
- Security and golf estates: large honed slate floor tiles across open-plan living areas in modern estate homes
- Townhouses and complexes: slate floors in compact living rooms and kitchens, with noise rules from the body corporate
- New builds and developments: slate floors specified early so screed levels and doorways suit the finished tile
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: slate floors in restaurants, hotel lobbies and showrooms that see heavy foot traffic
