Housing stock — River-front properties get hammered by damp and wind off the Thames — chimney flashings, lead valleys and ridge re-bedding dominate the repair calls here.
Local roofing challenge — Riverside humidity and the prevailing south-westerly off the Thames accelerate mortar erosion on chimney stacks — we routinely repoint and re-flaunch listed-area stacks every 15-20 years here.
On the ground — Properties between West Street and the river have shared boundary walls and party-wall chimneys — every stack rebuild in SL7 needs a Party Wall Notice served before scaffold, which we draft as part of the quote.
Microclimate — Thames mist sits in the lower town until late morning most autumns — moss growth on north-facing slate is noticeably heavier than in SL7 properties up on the hill towards Bovingdon Green.
Site access — Marlow Bridge has a 3-tonne weight limit so material deliveries to the south side route via Bourne End — we plan delivery windows around the Saturday market to keep the High Street clear.
