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 tiles requests in the area come from:
- Security and golf estates: charcoal slate roofs on architect-designed estate homes that must satisfy design guidelines
- Coastal and holiday homes: slate roofs fixed with copper or stainless nails to resist salt air and wind
- Suburban homes: natural slate re-roofing on a family home, chosen for its long life and quiet colour
- Townhouses and complexes: matching slate roofs across a cluster, usually after trustee or HOA approval of the material
- New builds and developments: slate specified at design stage so trusses and battens are built for the extra weight
- Older and heritage homes: like-for-like slate replacement on Victorian and Edwardian roofs, matched to the original colour and size
