Slate, stone and weather in Worcester
Worcester is a Breede River Valley town surrounded by vineyards, orchards and mountains, with older Cape Dutch and Victorian homes and newer complexes. Slate and stone are used on stoeps, courtyards, entrance halls and farm-stall and cellar floors. Summers are very hot and dry, so sealers fade on open terraces and dark slate gets hot in direct sun, while winter brings cold rain, frost and occasional snow on nearby peaks. Frost can crack thin or poorly bedded outdoor tiles, so use dense stone, flexible adhesive and a full bed. Heritage rules may apply to older buildings. Tile shops and merchants serve the town, with larger slate orders delivered from Paarl or Cape Town.
Typical slate roof tiles requests in the area come from:
- Suburban homes: natural slate re-roofing on a family home, chosen for its long life and quiet colour
- Older and heritage homes: like-for-like slate replacement on Victorian and Edwardian roofs, matched to the original colour and size
- Farms, lodges and wine estates: slate roofs on farmhouses, lodges and guest houses where a natural stone look suits the setting
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: slate roofing on hotels, restaurants and showrooms that want a lasting, high-end roof
- New builds and developments: slate specified at design stage so trusses and battens are built for the extra weight
- Security and golf estates: charcoal slate roofs on architect-designed estate homes that must satisfy design guidelines
