Slate, stone and weather in Gauteng

Gauteng has the country's biggest market for slate and natural stone. Suburban patios and braai areas, estate feature walls, entrance halls and pool surrounds are the common jobs, and a few older Johannesburg and Pretoria homes still carry heritage slate roofs. Highveld hail cracks roof slates and tiles, afternoon storms soak outdoor floors, and winter frost works into poorly bedded paving. Strong UV also fades topical sealers on sunny stoeps. Tile shops, stone and paving yards and builders' merchants are spread across the province, so supply is easy to compare and delivery to estates and outlying plots is usual.

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
  • 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
  • Older and heritage homes: verandas, stoeps and garden paths in older gardens, with slate that suits the house

Why get a quote in Gauteng first?

Taking the first price you hear can cost more than you expect. By requesting a quote for Gauteng, you can check the scope, the materials allowed for, the timing and any guarantee, and find a paving contractor you can call again.

What to include in your request

  • State the patio or path area in m² and sketch the shape if you can.

  • Describe the ground, including slopes, an existing slab or old paving.
  • Mention steps, edging, planters or a braai area to be included.
  • Add your suburb, access for materials and any estate or body corporate rules.

The more detail you give, the more accurate your quote will be.

Frequently asked questions

What will it cost in Gauteng?
It depends on the area in m², the surface the slate goes onto, the type of slate, access and how soon you need it done. Send the form with your measurements and a paving contractor working in Gauteng will quote you.
Will someone come out to measure?
Most installers prefer to see the site before they give a final price, especially for floors on old screeds, walls and roofs. Give your suburb and a rough size on the form, and the person quoting will arrange a visit if needed.
Can they supply the slate as well?
Many can. Choose "Supply and install" on the form and say what colour and finish you like. If you have already bought the slate, choose "Installation only" and give the tile size and how much you have.
