Boarding Up Baker Street NW1 – Emergency Services North West London

If you’ve had a break-in, smashed window, or storm damage on Baker Street or anywhere in NW1, you need reliable boarding up fast. We’re local specialists covering Baker Street NW1 and the wider North West London area, available 24/7 for emergency calls. Properties here—from the busy shops and offices along Baker Street to the flats overlooking Marylebone Road—face unique risks due to high footfall from tourists heading to the Sherlock Holmes Museum and Baker Street Underground Station. We prioritise urgent jobs in this bustling spot, getting to you quickly despite the traffic around the station and one-way systems on Gloucester Place.

We use 18mm exterior-grade plywood for most window and door jobs, secured with anti-tamper fixings that can’t be prised off from outside. Our DBS-checked team knows the area’s mix of Victorian conversions and modern commercial builds, so we adapt our methods—whether it’s securing a shopfront near the station or a residential bay window further up towards Regent’s Park. Call 020 4634 7794 now for immediate help.

Services We Provide in Baker Street NW1

We handle all types of boarding up tailored to Baker Street’s commercial and residential properties. Here’s what we offer:

Window Boarding

Broken or vulnerable windows are common here, especially in flats above shops on Baker Street. We measure on-site, cut plywood or 12mm OSB to fit precisely, and fix it securely without further frame damage where possible. Ideal for post-burglary or vandalism. Learn more about window boarding.

Door Boarding Up

Forced doors on properties near Marylebone Road need quick securing. We install temporary plywood covers or, for longer-term needs, temporary steel doors that withstand attempts to kick them in. Anti-tamper screws ensure they hold until glaziers arrive. See our full door boarding process.

Shopfront Boarding

Baker Street’s retail units and cafes take hits from impacts or theft attempts. Larger 18mm plywood panels or security screens cover wide glazing, fitted to comply with commercial access needs. We work out of hours to minimise disruption. Details on shopfront boarding.

Roof and Skylight Boarding

Overhead damage from storms affects the older buildings around here. We use weatherproof materials and safe access methods, sealing gaps to prevent leaks into offices or homes below. Check roof boarding options.

All jobs come with time-stamped photos before and after, plus an itemised invoice for your insurer.

Our Local Coverage in Baker Street NW1

We specialise in NW1, covering Baker Street from the station up to the edges near Regent’s Park, including Lisson Grove, Marylebone, and Somers Town. We’re familiar with the pinch points—avoiding delays from Jubilee line disruptions or rush-hour on the A41 Marylebone Road.

A real example from Baker Street: Last winter, a cafe near the Sherlock Holmes Museum had its shopfront shattered by a delivery van skidding on icy Marylebone Road. We arrived within the hour, assessed the large glazed frame, fitted custom 18mm plywood panels with heavy-duty fixings, and left it secure overnight. The owner had photos and an invoice ready for their insurer by morning—no further issues.
