Slate, stone and weather in Bloemfontein
Bloemfontein is the judicial capital, with leafy older suburbs such as Westdene, Waverley and Universitas, plus newer estates around Langenhovenpark and Bainsvlei. Older sandstone and plastered houses sit beside modern homes that use slate for entrance halls, lounges, patios and feature walls. Free State winters bring hard frost, which can crack thin or porous outdoor tiles and lift paving laid on a poor bed. Summer hail damages roof tiles and slate-look sheets. Clay soils move, so use flexible adhesive and movement joints. Tile shops, paving yards and builders' merchants are well spread across the city, and suppliers can deliver across the central Free State.
Typical slate patio and paving installation requests in the area come from:
- Suburban homes: back patios, stoeps and braai areas, plus garden paths and entrance steps
- Older and heritage homes: verandas, stoeps and garden paths in older gardens, with slate that suits the house
- Security and golf estates: large entertainment patios, pool decks and entrance paths in modern designs
- Townhouses and complexes: small private courtyards and patios, within what the body corporate allows
- New builds and developments: patios and paths laid at the end of the build, once levels and drainage are set
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: restaurant terraces, hotel courtyards and garden walkways that carry plenty of foot traffic
