Services We Provide in Edgware NW7

We handle all standard boarding up services North West London style jobs tailored to Edgware’s properties. Here’s what we cover:

Window Boarding

Broken or vulnerable windows are common after burglaries or accidents around Edgware’s residential streets. We measure on-site and fit 18mm exterior-grade plywood or 12mm OSB for smaller panes, secured with anti-tamper screws. This prevents further intrusion while allowing light through where possible. For more on this, see our window boarding page.

Door Boarding Up

Forced doors on homes near Deans Brook or commercial units demand quick securing. We board over damaged frames or install temporary steel doors for better medium-term protection, especially if the property might sit empty. Anti-lift fixings ensure they stay put.

Shopfront Boarding

Edgware’s retail scene, from independents on Broadwalk to takeaways on High Street, relies on us for larger panels. We use reinforced plywood sheets for shopfronts up to 3m wide, factoring in pedestrian access and overnight security. Check shopfront boarding for details.

Roof and Skylight Boarding

Storm damage to roofs over bungalows in Edgwarebury or skylights in modern flats gets immediate weatherproofing. We use weighted tarpaulin under plywood where access allows, sealing edges to minimise water ingress. Our roof boarding service explains the process.

All work includes time-stamped photos before and after, plus an itemised invoice for your insurer.
