Slate, stone and weather in Northern Cape

Northern Cape slate and stone jobs deal with heat, wind, dust and big temperature swings between day and night. Older Kimberley homes show how well stone lasts here, and newer houses in Upington, Kathu and Springbok use slate on stoeps, courtyards and entrance halls. Intense UV breaks down topical sealers, so penetrating sealers suit exposed paving. Wind-blown sand scuffs honed finishes more than cleft ones. Supply is thin outside the larger towns, so most stone and tiles come from regional yards or are delivered over long distances. Allow for freight and lead times.

Why get a quote in Northern Cape first?

  • Say whether it is a new build or a re-roof.

Frequently asked questions

What will it cost in Northern Cape?
It depends on the area in m², the surface the slate goes onto, the type of slate, access and how soon you need it done. Send the form with your measurements and a slate roofer working in Northern Cape will quote you.
Will someone come out to measure?
Most installers prefer to see the site before they give a final price, especially for floors on old screeds, walls and roofs. Give your suburb and a rough size on the form, and the person quoting will arrange a visit if needed.
Can they supply the slate as well?
Many can. Choose "Supply and install" on the form and say what colour and finish you like. If you have already bought the slate, choose "Installation only" and give the tile size and how much you have.
