On the ground — SL3 Datchet properties on Horton Road commonly have flat-roof rear extensions built in the 1980s with three-layer felt — we're replacing these systematically with EPDM single-ply as the felt reaches end of life.
Microclimate — Datchet is prone to Thames flooding (the 2014 floods hit hard) — ground-level humidity keeps low-elevation tile damp longer than average, and we recommend stainless steel valley trays rather than lead on any reroof below the 2014 flood line.
Site access — Datchet is on the wrong side of the Thames from Windsor for direct SL4 access — material lorries route via the A308 Windsor Road and Datchet Bridge, which is single-lane with light controls.
