The town
The Trading Estate, the town centre and the Heathrow edge
Chiltern Surface Co is based in Marlow, Buckinghamshire; Slough lies to the south-east in Berkshire, reached by the A404 and the M4. The town has a concentrated mix of offices, warehouses, industrial units, trade premises, retail sites and managed commercial estates, varying considerably in age, scale and construction.
- Slough Trading Estate
- West of the town centre, the estate mixes factories, warehouses and offices. Its larger sites can have long elevations, active loading bays, HGV routes, security controls and limited windows for exterior work, so the survey identifies priority façades, service routes, drainage points and times of highest activity.
- Town centre and Bath Road
- Offices around the station and along the A4 combine prominent entrance elevations with visitor parking, paths and shared access. The work is divided between presentation-led frontages and supporting elevations.
- Colnbrook and Poyle
- Beside Heathrow, the logistics warehouses and yards of Poyle Industrial Estate run on delivery schedules. This close to the airport, airspace restrictions can rule out a drone survey of the roof.
- Conservation areas
- Colnbrook, Upton Park and Upton Village, and St Mary's Church in Langley are conservation areas; weathered older frontages there are covered by façade restoration.
- Weathering
- Traffic exposure, loading activity, atmospheric deposits, shade and roof drainage all influence how façades weather. Coated panels collect water trails and general grime; render and masonry develop algae, organic marking or localised staining.
- Managed estates
- A requirement may be one building, a mixed-use development or several managed properties, each surveyed on its own materials, access and operating conditions. Portfolios under one contact and one standard sit with multi-site and portfolio contracts.

Safety and site control
Planned before we arrive
- Roofs
- We identify the roof covering before any work is proposed and request the asbestos register. Asbestos-cement and fragile roofs are never pressure-washed or walked on.
- Wash water
- We plan wash-water control and drain protection for every site.
- Listed and conservation buildings
- We use test areas and low-pressure methods on listed and conservation-area buildings.

Questions
Common questions
Can the work be planned around an operating site?
Yes. Works are phased zone by zone behind agreed exclusion areas, so staff, customers, deliveries and neighbouring occupiers keep their access wherever the site conditions allow. Out-of-hours working is available where the site needs it.
Can façades, cladding, roofs and gutters be cleaned in one project?
Yes, where the surfaces, access and site arrangements suit it. One survey covers them, one fixed-price proposal specifies each surface, and higher-level work generally comes first.
Can every stain be completely removed?
No. The achievable result depends on the depth and nature of the staining within the substrate. Where complete removal cannot be guaranteed, this is identified before works begin and the expected improvement is set out clearly.
What do you send after the survey?
A fixed-price proposal with a specification of works, programme and exclusions, with no day rates and no overrun charges. When the work is done you receive a completion report with before-and-after photography, a defect schedule and a PPM proposal.
What information should I provide?
The full address or postcode, the property type, the elevations involved, photographs if you have them, access restrictions and your preferred timeframe. For roof or gutter work we also ask for the site's asbestos register and drainage drawings.
