Slate, stone and weather in Stellenbosch
Stellenbosch is a university town and wine region of oak-lined streets, Cape Dutch houses and wine estates. Homes in Die Boord, Dalsig and Welgevonden range from heritage buildings with slate or thatch roofs to security estates with large pools and entertainment terraces. Slate suits stoeps, courtyards, tasting rooms and cellar entrances, and stone cladding suits feature walls and gate pillars. Heritage rules affect external changes, so owners should check before starting. Heavy winter rain keeps shaded stone damp, and dry summers fade sealers. Tile shops, stone and paving yards and merchants serve town and the surrounding wine farms, with deliveries along the Helderberg and Franschhoek valleys.

Typical slate pool surrounds requests in the area come from:
- Older and heritage homes: slate coping and paving that suits a restored garden and an older home with character
- Security and golf estates: matching slate paving from the entertainment patio to the pool edge in a modern home
- Farms, lodges and wine estates: a large slate deck beside a lodge or guest house pool, with views of the veld
- Suburban homes: a slate deck around the family pool with a braai area and shaded loungers close by
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: non-slip slate decking for hotel, lodge or restaurant pools used by guests every day
- New builds and developments: pool coping and deck slate planned with the builder so falls and levels are right first time
