Services We Provide in Westbourne Green W2
We handle all types of boarding up W2, tailored to the property and damage. Our technicians carry public liability insurance and are DBS-checked, ensuring safe, professional work even in tight spots like the mews around here.
Window Boarding
Broken sash windows in Victorian homes or modern double glazing in flats— we measure on-site and fit 18mm exterior-grade plywood or 12mm OSB with anti-tamper screws. This secures against weather and intruders until glaziers arrive. See full details on window boarding.
Door Boarding Up
Forced entries leave frames splintered; we board over with heavy-duty plywood or install a temporary steel door for better medium-term security, especially useful for vacant flats common in the area. Non-destructive fixes where possible.
Shopfront Boarding
Harrow Road sees its share of retail—smashed shopfronts get oversized panels fixed securely overnight, minimising downtime for businesses. We use reinforced fixings for larger spans. More on shopfront boarding.
Roof Boarding
Storm-torn slates or damaged skylights over extensions? We access safely (ladders, scaffolding if needed) and board overhead openings to keep rain out, crucial in Westbourne Green’s exposed rooftops. Check roof boarding.
For any scenario, we provide time-stamped photos before/after, an itemised invoice, and a work statement for your insurer.
Emergency Situations We Cover in Westbourne Green
Westbourne Green’s proximity to the Westway and canal means wind gusts, fly-tippers, and opportunistic break-ins aren’t rare. Here’s how we respond:
