Slate, stone and weather in KwaZulu-Natal
KwaZulu-Natal mixes humid coast, warm midlands and cool Berg foothills, so slate is chosen for different reasons. On the coast, salt air and humidity call for good sealing and a non-slip cleft finish around pools and decks. Heavy summer rain and humidity grow algae on shaded paving. Midlands homes and lodges use slate and stone cladding for fireplaces and entrance halls, and Pietermaritzburg has older character homes. Tile shops and stone yards are concentrated around Durban and Pietermaritzburg, with delivery to the North and South Coasts and outlying farms.

Typical slate patio and paving installation requests in the area come from:
- Coastal and holiday homes: decks, patios and outdoor showers that must handle sand, salt air and wet feet
- 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
- Farms, lodges and wine estates: large stoeps, lapa floors and garden paths around farmhouses, lodges and wine estates
- Older and heritage homes: verandas, stoeps and garden paths in older gardens, with slate that suits the house
