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 pavers requests in the area come from:
- Coastal and holiday homes: sealed slate pavers with a grippy face for sandy paths, decks and beach access steps
- Suburban homes: slate pavers for the garden path, front entrance and braai patio of a family home
- Security and golf estates: sawn grey slate paving slabs for courtyards, pool decks and neat garden paths
- Townhouses and complexes: a small slate paver patio or stepping stone path, within body corporate rules
- New builds and developments: slate paving planned with levels and drainage so falls and bases are right from the start
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: hard-wearing slate pavers for restaurant terraces, hotel gardens, entrance paths and courtyards
