Housing stock — River-front SL6 properties have heavy lead detailing on bay windows, dormers and boat-house roofs; town-centre terraces carry Welsh slate; 1930s Furze Platt semis mostly retain original clay tile.
Local roofing challenge — The Royal Borough enforces stricter Thames-frontage conservation than upstream districts — river-facing roofs at Boulters Lock and Bray Marina need Code 6 lead and hand-rolled ridge on any visible re-lay.
On the ground — SL6 river-frontage properties commonly have boat-house or slipway roofs at water level — we specify tanalised timber and lead-lined gutters as the only spec that survives Thames rise and fall.
Microclimate — Thames humidity keeps river-side SL6 slate damp late into the day — north-facing slopes above Ray Mead Road grow moss twice as fast as SL6 up on the ridge towards Cookham Dean.
Site access — Maidenhead Bridge and Brunel's railway bridge both have weight restrictions — heavy material drops for the south bank route via A404 and the Braywick roundabout.
