Slate, stone and weather in George
George lies between the Outeniqua mountains and the Garden Route coast, with leafy suburbs like Heatherlands, Dormehls Drift and Blanco, golf estates, and holiday homes near Wilderness and Herolds Bay. The climate is mild but wet, with rain at any time of year, so slate on decks, patios and pool surrounds needs a non-slip finish, proper falls and regular cleaning to keep moss and algae down. Coastal homes also face salt. Estates and holiday houses favour stone cladding and slate on feature walls and entrances. Tile shops, paving yards and merchants serve the area, with deliveries to Knysna, Mossel Bay and the Little Karoo.
Typical slate roof repairs requests in the area come from:
- Security and golf estates: repairs on estate roofs that must match the colour and layout agreed with the committee
- Coastal and holiday homes: replacing corroded fixings and wind-lifted slates on roofs exposed to salt air
- Suburban homes: replacing a few cracked or slipped slates after a storm on a family home roof
- Townhouses and complexes: repairing shared slate roofs in a complex, usually arranged through the managing agent or body corporate
- New builds and developments: snagging slate work on a new roof before handover, such as loose or chipped slates
- Older and heritage homes: careful repairs and re-fixing on older slate roofs, matching original slate and fixing methods
