Slate, stone and weather in Durban
Durban is a warm, humid coastal city where slate is used on verandahs, pool decks, bathrooms and feature walls from Umhlanga and Berea to Westville. Salt air, heavy summer rain and constant humidity grow mould and algae on shaded stone, so choose a non-slip cleft finish, give outdoor areas proper falls and clean with pH-neutral products. Sealing protects against salt and stains, and moisture rising through screeds can cause white efflorescence. Flat roofs and balconies need sound waterproofing under tiles. Tile shops, stone and paving yards and builders' merchants are spread across the metro, and many suppliers deliver to the South Coast, North Coast and inland hills.

Typical slate tile sealing requests in the area come from:
- Coastal and holiday homes: decks and patios exposed to salt air, sand and strong sun that wear sealer quickly
- Suburban homes: kitchen floors, entrance halls and patios that see daily foot traffic and braai splashes
- Security and golf estates: large open floors, feature walls and pool decks where a consistent finish matters
- Townhouses and complexes: small courtyards, entrance floors and bathrooms where a quick, tidy job is needed
- New builds and developments: new slate floors sealed after grouting and before the owners move in
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: restaurant and hotel floors that need protection from grease, spills and constant cleaning
