Slate, stone and weather in Western Cape
The Western Cape combines winter rain, dry hot summers and strong coastal wind, and slate has a long history here. Cape Town and the Winelands have Cape Dutch and Victorian homes, some with heritage slate roofs and stone walls. Wine estates and guest houses use slate and stone cladding on terraces and feature walls, while seaside homes need salt-tolerant sealing and a non-slip finish around pools. Winter damp brings algae to shaded stone. Tile shops, stone and paving yards and merchants are plentiful, with delivery to the Winelands, Garden Route and West Coast.
Typical slate pool surrounds requests in the area come from:
- Suburban homes: a slate deck around the family pool with a braai area and shaded loungers close by
- Security and golf estates: matching slate paving from the entertainment patio to the pool edge in a modern home
- Older and heritage homes: slate coping and paving that suits a restored garden and an older home with character
- Coastal and holiday homes: salt-resistant sealed slate around a holiday home pool, with wet feet and sand in mind
- Farms, lodges and wine estates: a large slate deck beside a lodge or guest house pool, with views of the veld
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: non-slip slate decking for hotel, lodge or restaurant pools used by guests every day
