Emergency Boarding Up
24/7 securing of broken windows and doors.
A broken window leaves your property vulnerable to weather, wildlife, and intruders. Our emergency boarding up service provides an immediate, robust solution. We use strong, solid sterling board / OSB to seal the opening securely. Our engineers are trained to fit boards in a way that minimizes further damage to your frames, often fixing into the glazing bead rather than the frame face. We operate 24/7 to ensure that no matter when the damage occurs, your property can be made safe and secure quickly.
