Services We Provide in South Acton W3

We offer a full range of boarding up services West London tailored to South Acton’s mix of homes, flats, and businesses. Our DBS-checked technicians use 18mm exterior-grade plywood for most jobs, with anti-tamper fixings to deter further issues.

Window Boarding: For cracked panes in high-rise flats or ground-floor sash windows. We measure on-site, cut to fit, and secure without damaging frames where possible—ideal after overnight break-ins near Acton Town station.
Door Boarding Up: Temporary plywood covers or temporary steel doors for kicked-in entries. Common in South Acton’s rental properties; we explain options if the frame needs propping.
Shopfront Boarding: Larger OSB or plywood panels for retail units along Uxbridge Road. We handle glazing replacements’ security phase, coordinating around trading hours.
Roof Boarding: Securing skylights or storm-lifted sections on low-rise commercial builds. Weatherproofing is key here, with tarps over boards to protect against London rain.

These keep your property safe until glaziers or builders arrive. We provide time-stamped photos, itemised invoices, and a work statement for insurance claims.

Emergency Situations We Handle in South Acton

South Acton’s position between the A4 and District line means wind gusts or opportunistic break-ins hit hard. Here’s how we respond to common crises—check our situations pages for more.

Burglary: Post-break-in, we board forced windows or doors fast. Keep your police crime reference; we document everything for your claim.
Vandalism: Smashed glass from youth groups near Priory Park? We secure with tamper-proof methods, advising on CCTV checks.
Storm Damage: High winds off the Thames damage roofs or loose panels—we prioritise weatherproofing for flats overlooking Acton Park.
Fire Damage: After fire service clearance, we board soot-marked openings (no remediation). Safe access is our focus.
Flood Damage: Swollen frames from Uxbridge Road downpours—we ventilate while securing.
