Windsor: how we approach grp fibreglass roofing
Windsor sits low on the Thames flood plain — ground humidity and mist keep north-facing slate damp through winter, and we specify slate hooks in preference to nails on any full re-lay to avoid future nail-sickness. We work across SL4 and the surrounding villages. Recent Windsor bookings sit between work in slough, maidenhead and datchet.
GRP Fibreglass Roofing on a SL4 roof — the local fit
Anything visible from the castle sightlines is subject to World Heritage buffer-zone consultation — we've handled enough Windsor conservation submissions to know which streets need pre-app and which sit outside the buffer. For SL4 properties we'll always recommend the system we'd put on our own roof — not the one with the highest margin.
