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 roofing requests in the area come from:
- Security and golf estates: steep black slate roofs on architect-designed estate homes, laid to strict design guidelines
- Coastal and holiday homes: slate roofing fixed with copper or stainless nails and detailed for wind and salt air
- Suburban homes: a new slate roof on a family home, replacing worn concrete tiles or old sheeting
- Townhouses and complexes: slate roofing across a townhouse block, agreed with the body corporate and done in one phase
- New builds and developments: slate planned from the plans stage so trusses, battens and pitch suit the material
- Older and heritage homes: full or partial slate roof renewal on older homes, matched to original colour and pitch
