Local stone suppliers and installers know what holds up nearby. Send your wall sizes and they will quote.

Slate, stone and weather in Pinetown
Pinetown sits inland of Durban on the hills, with older suburbs like Cowies Hill and Moseley and leafy neighbours such as Hillcrest and Kloof. Steep stands lead to terraced gardens, retaining walls and split-level patios, which suit stone cladding and slate steps and paving. Warm, humid weather and heavy summer rain mean mould on shaded slate, so falls, drainage and a non-slip finish matter. Cracked paving often traces back to poor drainage behind walls. Townhouse complexes usually need body corporate approval for finishes. Mid-century homes may still carry original tile or slate-look roofs. The industrial areas nearby hold tile suppliers, paving yards and merchants, with quick delivery across the hills.
Typical stone cladding requests in the area come from:
- Suburban homes: stone cladding on the front wall, garage face and gate pillars of a family home
- Townhouses and complexes: small cladded feature areas and braai walls, subject to body corporate approval
- Security and golf estates: natural stone cladding on entrance walls and facades, with design committee approval first
- Older and heritage homes: stone cladding chosen to match the colour and texture of existing walls and chimneys
- New builds and developments: cladding planned with the builder so wall prep, damp-proofing and fixing are done correctly
- Restaurants, hotels and offices: stone cladding on shopfronts, reception walls, restaurant exteriors and hotel entrance features
