Slate, stone and weather in Ladysmith
Ladysmith is a historic Boer War town on the Klip River, with older sandstone and brick buildings in the centre and suburbs such as Model Park. Heritage houses have thick walls, verandahs and timber floors, where slate suits stoeps, hearths and entrance halls, and local sandstone suits repair work. Owners should check heritage rules before altering older exteriors. Summers are hot with strong storms and hail, and winters bring frost, so outdoor tiles need a flexible adhesive, a solid bed and sealing. Lodges and farms towards the Drakensberg foothills use rustic slate and stone cladding. Local merchants stock basic tiles, with larger slate orders delivered from Newcastle, Pietermaritzburg or Gauteng.
Typical stone cladding installation requests in the area come from:
- Older and heritage homes: garden walls, pillars and repairs where the stone must suit the older house
- Suburban homes: front boundary walls, gate pillars, entrance walls and braai areas on freestanding homes
- Farms, lodges and wine estates: lodge entrances, stone walls and fireplaces that suit the farm or wine estate setting
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: restaurant fronts, hotel entrances and feature walls in reception and showroom areas
- New builds and developments: facades, pillars and feature walls fixed during the build once walls are plastered
- Security and golf estates: feature walls, entrance facades and outdoor kitchens on modern, architect-designed homes
