Slate, stone and weather in Stellenbosch
Stellenbosch is a university town and wine region of oak-lined streets, Cape Dutch houses and wine estates. Homes in Die Boord, Dalsig and Welgevonden range from heritage buildings with slate or thatch roofs to security estates with large pools and entertainment terraces. Slate suits stoeps, courtyards, tasting rooms and cellar entrances, and stone cladding suits feature walls and gate pillars. Heritage rules affect external changes, so owners should check before starting. Heavy winter rain keeps shaded stone damp, and dry summers fade sealers. Tile shops, stone and paving yards and merchants serve town and the surrounding wine farms, with deliveries along the Helderberg and Franschhoek valleys.
Typical slate roofing requests in the area come from:
- Older and heritage homes: full or partial slate roof renewal on older homes, matched to original colour and pitch
- Security and golf estates: steep black slate roofs on architect-designed estate homes, laid to strict design guidelines
- Farms, lodges and wine estates: slate roofs on farmhouses, lodges and wine estates where the roof is part of the character
- Suburban homes: a new slate roof on a family home, replacing worn concrete tiles or old sheeting
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: slate roofing on hotels, restaurants and boutique offices wanting a lasting premium finish
- New builds and developments: slate planned from the plans stage so trusses, battens and pitch suit the material
