Slate, stone and weather in Kimberley
Kimberley is a historic diamond city with Victorian and Edwardian homes in Belgravia, Kimberley North and around the Big Hole. Most old roofs are corrugated iron, but slate and stone appear on verandah floors, hearths, thick-walled facades and the occasional original slate roof. Heritage rules may apply to older buildings, so check before changing exteriors. The dry Karoo-edge climate brings very hot summers, frosty winter nights and sudden storms, which stress outdoor tiles and sealers. Shifting soils call for a solid bed and movement joints. Local tile shops and merchants stock common slate, with larger orders and cladding delivered from Bloemfontein, Johannesburg or Cape Town.
Typical tilers for slate tile installation requests in the area come from:
- Older and heritage homes: repairs to natural slate roofs and matching old slate floors and stoeps on older character homes
- Suburban homes: patios, entrance halls, braai areas and lounges, often with a slate feature wall or step treads
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: heavy-traffic slate floors, cladding and paving for restaurants, hotels, offices and shopping centres
- Townhouses and complexes: small courtyards, kitchens and bathrooms, with finishes that must suit the body corporate or HOA rules
- New builds and developments: slate floors, cladding and roofs specified by architects and installed by contractors on new houses
- Security and golf estates: large-format slate floors flowing from inside to the pool deck, feature walls and stone-clad entrances
