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 stone cladding installation requests in the area come from:
- Coastal and holiday homes: outside walls and entertainment areas where salt air and wind test the fixing
- Suburban homes: front boundary walls, gate pillars, entrance walls and braai areas on freestanding homes
- Security and golf estates: feature walls, entrance facades and outdoor kitchens on modern, architect-designed homes
- Townhouses and complexes: private courtyard walls and entrance features, subject to body corporate approval of the exterior
- 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
