Slate, stone and weather in Richards Bay
Richards Bay is a port town on the Zululand coast, with suburbs like Meerensee, Arboretum and Aquadene and coastal homes at Mtunzini. Hot humid weather, salt air and heavy summer rain suit slate only when it is well chosen and cared for: sealed, non-slip cleft stone on patios and pool surrounds, with falls so water runs off. Mould and algae grow quickly in shade, and sandy soils shift under paving, so a firm base matters. Salt can attack weak adhesive beds, so use flexible, polymer-modified adhesive. Local merchants stock common tiles and paving, while slate, cladding and special orders usually come from Durban and are delivered north.
Typical tilers for slate tile installation requests in the area come from:
- Coastal and holiday homes: non-slip outdoor slate around pools and decks, sealed against salt air, sand and constant wet feet
- Suburban homes: patios, entrance halls, braai areas and lounges, often with a slate feature wall or step treads
- Security and golf estates: large-format slate floors flowing from inside to the pool deck, feature walls and stone-clad entrances
- 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
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: heavy-traffic slate floors, cladding and paving for restaurants, hotels, offices and shopping centres
