Services We Provide in Chalk Farm NW3

We handle all types of boarding up tailored to Chalk Farm’s properties, from quick fixes to more robust security. Here’s what we offer:

Window boarding: For cracked or broken panes in homes or flats—common after opportunistic thefts near the station. We measure on-site, cut to fit, and secure with anti-tamper screws to keep weather and intruders out.
Door boarding up: Damaged front or back doors get plywood covers or, for longer-term needs, temporary steel doors that withstand forced entry attempts.
Shopfront boarding: Larger panels for retail units along Chalk Farm Road, using 18mm plywood or OSB reinforced for high-traffic areas exposed to passers-by.
Roof boarding: Securing skylights or damaged roof sections, especially after storms affecting the area’s older slate roofs—we use weatherproof methods and ladder access safely.

For vacant spots, we also fit steel security screens. All work uses materials suited to NW3’s damp climate, and we provide time-stamped photos before and after for your records or insurer.

Common Emergency Situations in Chalk Farm

Chalk Farm sees its share of incidents due to the evening crowds and proximity to Camden markets. We respond to:

Burglary repairs: Forced entries through rear windows in terraced houses—secure the site immediately to prevent repeat visits.
Vandalism repair: Smashed glass from rowdy groups near The Roundhouse; we board up fast to protect stock or belongings.
Storm damage: High winds lifting slates or debris through windows along exposed canal paths.
Fire damage: Post-blaze securing after incidents in older buildings—we coordinate with the fire service but focus on boarding.
Flood damage: Water-swollen frames from heavy rain overwhelming drains on Chalk Farm Road.

No matter the cause, call 020 4634 7794 first. We’ll ask for details like your police reference (if applicable) and arrive equipped. We’re not glaziers, so this is temporary security—perfect for insurance claims.

Property Types We Secure in Chalk Farm NW3

From residential to commercial, we adapt to Chalk Farm’s diverse buildings:

Vacant properties: Empty units between lets, secured with steel doors or screens to deter squatters.

Take a recent case: A landlord in Chalk Farm had a void flat above a shop on Chalk Farm Road, targeted after dark due to the area’s buzz. We fitted a temporary steel door with anti-tamper fixings, provided an itemised invoice, and photos showing the secure seal. The tenant moved in safely a week later—no further issues.
