Properties in Maidenhead built in close proximity to the path of the River Thames, such as those in Bay Mead Road, have been subject to flood warnings and alerts from time to time. If you are concerned that a property you are looking to buy is in a flood risk area, you should consider getting a flood risk report (click for more details). |
According to the UK Government's Public Health England, most of Maidenhead, including streets such as Cordwallis Road and Bailey Close, is in a raised radon area, with properties built there having a higher probability than average of experiencing ground Radon emissions. If you are concerned that a property you are buying is in an area of raised Radon, please click to visit Public Health England's UK Radon Map.

Slate roof properties in Maidenhead need maintenance from time to time. A recent building survey conducted on a property in Grenfell Road revealed that although the majority of the slating was in satisfactory condition, with slates laid to straight regular courses, many of the slates were held in place with lead clips, called tingles, indicating that the iron nails which were used for the purpose when the house was built had rusted away. Slates will continue to slip and therefore maintenance is required from time to time to keep the roof slopes in a sound condition until such time as they are stripped and recovered. |
