Slate, stone and weather in Cape Town
Cape Town mixes mountain, sea and wine-country weather, so slate is used differently by suburb. Atlantic Seaboard homes face salt and wind, Southern Suburbs and Constantia have large gardens, pools and Cape Dutch houses, and Victorian terraces in Woodstock and Observatory still carry original slate or iron roofs. Winter rain and damp keep shaded stone wet, so a non-slip cleft finish, falls and sealing are important. Heritage controls apply to many older buildings. Wind-driven rain finds weak flashings and wet screeds cause efflorescence. Tile shops, stone and paving yards and builders' merchants are plentiful across the metro, and suppliers deliver to the Peninsula, Winelands and West Coast.
Typical tilers tools requests in the area come from:
- Coastal and holiday homes: supplying corrosion-resistant tools and saws for decks and pool surrounds near the sea
- Older and heritage homes: supplying tools for careful cutting around old hearths, thresholds and uneven floors
- Suburban homes: equipping a tiler or homeowner for lounge floors, kitchens, stoeps and braai areas
- Security and golf estates: supplying cutters and levelling systems for large-format slate in modern estate homes
- Townhouses and complexes: providing compact tools and quiet wet cutting for small jobs in complexes with noise rules
- New builds and developments: supplying tilers and contractors with full tool kits as houses reach the tiling stage
