Slate, stone and weather in Upington
Upington lies on the Orange River in the Green Kalahari, where vineyards, date palms and desert heat meet. Plastered single-storey homes with stoeps, courtyards and pools use stone for shaded patios and pool surrounds. Summer temperatures often pass 40 degrees, so dark slate in direct sun becomes too hot to walk on, and lighter or textured cleft finishes in shade work better. Hard water leaves scale on stone, and UV bleaches sealers, so plan to reseal. Sandy soils shift around paving, making a firm base important. Lodges and guest houses along the river use rustic slate. Slate and cladding are mostly delivered from Cape Town or Gauteng.
Typical slate tile sealing requests in the area come from:
- Suburban homes: kitchen floors, entrance halls and patios that see daily foot traffic and braai splashes
- Farms, lodges and wine estates: stone floors in farmhouses and lodges that take dust, boots and heavy daily use
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: restaurant and hotel floors that need protection from grease, spills and constant cleaning
- Security and golf estates: large open floors, feature walls and pool decks where a consistent finish matters
- New builds and developments: new slate floors sealed after grouting and before the owners move in
- Older and heritage homes: old slate floors and stoeps that have lost their sealer and gone dry and patchy
