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 tiles 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
