Services We Provide in Golders Green NW2

We handle all types of boarding up tailored to Golders Green’s property mix, from high street commercial units to family homes. Here’s what we offer:

Window boarding: For broken or vulnerable windows common in the area’s flats and semis. We use 18mm exterior-grade plywood cut to exact sizes, fixed with anti-tamper screws to prevent easy removal—essential if you’re leaving the property unattended near busy Golders Green Road.
Door boarding up: Securing forced entries or damaged doors, including fitting temporary steel doors for added strength. Ideal for the solid timber doors on local 1930s homes or uPVC replacements in newer builds.
Shopfront boarding: Larger panels for retail glazing along the high street. We manage oversized OSB or plywood sheets, often working out of hours to minimise disruption to passing trade near the tube station.
Roof boarding: For storm-damaged skylights or roof openings, especially relevant after heavy winds batter properties near Golders Hill Park. We weatherproof with heavy-duty sheeting and secure access points safely.

All our work uses materials like 12-18mm plywood or OSB, chosen for durability in North West London’s damp climate. We explain options on-site, such as non-destructive fixings where possible, and provide time-stamped photos of before/after for your records.

Emergency Situations We Handle in Golders Green

Golders Green’s mix of shops, synagogues, and homes sees its share of incidents. We respond to:

Burglary repairs: Securing entry points after thieves target flats above shops or garages in residential side streets.
Vandalism repair: Boarding up graffiti-smeared windows or kicked-in doors, common around busier evenings near the station.
Storm damage: Wind-blown slates or debris hitting roofs, particularly exposing properties on exposed hillsides towards Hampstead Heath.
Fire damage: Post-fire securing while coordinating with the fire service— we’ve handled calls near the high street where smoke damage leaves openings vulnerable.
Flood damage: Swollen frames from heavy rain pooling in lower-lying areas; we ventilate as we board to reduce further issues.

Keep your police crime reference number handy if it’s a crime-related call—we provide detailed work statements insurers expect. Take photos if safe before we arrive.

Property Types We Secure in Golders Green NW2

Our experience covers the area’s diverse buildings:

Residential properties: From Edwardian terraces near North End Way to modern flats by the station. We focus on quick, low-impact fixes for homeowners and tenants.
Commercial properties: Shopfronts and offices along Golders Green Road, where downtime costs money. Out-of-hours work is standard.

We arrived within the hour, measured the large pane on-site, fitted 18mm plywood with anti-tamper fixings visible from the pavement, and left an itemised invoice plus photos. The shop reopened the next day, claim sorted smoothly.
