Boarding Up Bayswater W2

If you’ve had a break-in, smashed window, or storm damage in Bayswater W2, call 020 4634 8072 right away. We’re local specialists in boarding up Bayswater W2, covering the whole postcode from Queensway to Porchester Terrace. We operate 24/7, prioritising urgent jobs in this busy part of West London—whether it’s a Victorian terrace near Bayswater station or a shopfront on Moscow Road. No fixed arrival times, as traffic and access vary, but we get to you fast when it matters.

Bayswater’s mix of elegant stucco-fronted homes, mansion blocks, and commercial spots along Queensway means damage can happen anytime. A burglary after dark, vandalism on a quiet side street, or wind-blown debris from Hyde Park—we secure it properly with 18mm exterior-grade plywood or heavier options where needed. Our DBS-checked team knows the area’s narrow mews and high-level access challenges, ensuring a clean, secure fix that holds until repairs.

Services We Provide in Bayswater W2

We handle all standard boarding up services tailored to Bayswater’s properties. From quick window secures to full shopfront protection, here’s what we do:

Window Boarding

Broken sash windows on a period house near Kensington Gardens? We measure on-site and fit 18mm plywood with anti-tamper screws, overlapping the frame to block entry. It’s weatherproof and lets in some light—ideal for homes overlooking the park. Learn more about window boarding.

Door Boarding Up

Forced doors on Westbourne Terrace flats happen more than you’d think. We use OSB panels or install temporary steel doors for better security if the property will sit empty. Non-destructive where possible, but we’ll talk options if the frame’s twisted.

Shopfront Boarding

Queensway’s retail strip sees its share of late-night incidents. Larger 18mm plywood sheets or custom steel screens secure glazing overnight, fixed with coach bolts into brickwork. Minimal disruption for early openings. See our shopfront boarding details.

Roof and Skylight Boarding

High winds from Hyde Park can lift slates on roof terraces. We use scaffolding-free methods like extending poles for access, sealing with heavy-duty tarps under plywood. Not full repairs—we make it watertight. Check roof boarding.

All work uses materials suited to W2’s exposed locations, with time-stamped photos before/after and an itemised invoice for your insurer.
