Slate, stone and weather in Newcastle
Newcastle is a northern KwaZulu-Natal industrial town in the Drakensberg foothills, with older suburbs like Lennoxton and Fernwood and newer complexes. Owners use charcoal and grey slate on entrance halls and lounges, with rustic slate on patios and braai areas. The weather swings from hot, stormy summers with hail to cold winters with hard frost, so outdoor stone must be dense, well sealed and laid on a solid bed with movement joints. Hail bruises roof tiles and fibre-cement slate-look sheets, and older ones may contain asbestos. Local tile shops and merchants stock common slate and paving, with larger orders delivered from Gauteng or Durban.

Typical stone cladding installation requests in the area come from:
- Suburban homes: front boundary walls, gate pillars, entrance walls and braai areas on freestanding homes
- Townhouses and complexes: private courtyard walls and entrance features, subject to body corporate approval of the exterior
- Older and heritage homes: garden walls, pillars and repairs where the stone must suit the older house
- New builds and developments: facades, pillars and feature walls fixed during the build once walls are plastered
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: restaurant fronts, hotel entrances and feature walls in reception and showroom areas
- Farms, lodges and wine estates: lodge entrances, stone walls and fireplaces that suit the farm or wine estate setting
