Slate, stone and weather in Brits
Brits lies on the Crocodile River flats between Pretoria and Rustenburg, close to the Hartbeespoort holiday belt, so slate shows up on braai areas, pool surrounds and stone-clad entrances of weekend houses and smallholdings. Black cotton soil in parts of the district swells and shrinks, which cracks rigid floors and paving unless the bed is solid and movement joints are cut. Highveld hail damages roof tiles and slate-look sheets, and strong sun fades unsealed stone on open patios. Local tile shops and builders' merchants stock common slate and paving, while Pretoria yards supply larger or special orders and deliver to farms and estates around the dam.
Typical slate roofing requests in the area come from:
- Suburban homes: a new slate roof on a family home, replacing worn concrete tiles or old sheeting
- Farms, lodges and wine estates: slate roofs on farmhouses, lodges and wine estates where the roof is part of the character
- Security and golf estates: steep black slate roofs on architect-designed estate homes, laid to strict design guidelines
- New builds and developments: slate planned from the plans stage so trusses, battens and pitch suit the material
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: slate roofing on hotels, restaurants and boutique offices wanting a lasting premium finish
- Older and heritage homes: full or partial slate roof renewal on older homes, matched to original colour and pitch
