Services We Provide in Mill Hill NW7

We handle all standard boarding up needs with materials suited to NW7’s weather and property styles:

Window boarding: 18mm exterior-grade plywood cut to fit sash or casement frames common in local homes. Anti-tamper screws secure from inside, vital for unattended properties.
Door boarding: OSB panels or temporary steel doors for forced entries on uPVC or timber doors—often needed after burglaries in quieter spots like Partingdale Lane.
Shopfront boarding: Larger 18mm plywood sheets for glazing on The Broadway units, fixed with coach bolts to withstand tampering.
Roof boarding: Weatherproofing for damaged skylights or sections above garages, using tarpaulin overlays where access is tricky from terraced roofs.

These services secure your property quickly while you arrange glaziers or repairs. We provide time-stamped photos and an itemised work sheet for your records or insurer.

Emergency Situations We Cover in Mill Hill

North West London sees its share of incidents, and Mill Hill NW7 is no exception—heavy rain can hit exposed roofs, while opportunistic break-ins target homes near Mill Hill Broadway station after dark. Here’s how we help:

Burglary repairs: Secure entry points left by thieves, common in driveways off Flower Lane.
Vandalism repair: Board up smashed panes from stone-throwing or graffiti, often around schools or parks.
Storm damage: Fix wind-blown debris through openings, protecting against NW7’s damp winters.
Fire damage: Post-fire securing (smoke cleanup is separate), coordinating if fire crews are still on site.
Flood damage: Board swollen frames while allowing ventilation, key after heavy downpours near the A5.

Keep your police crime reference if applicable, and take safe photos beforehand—we’ll document everything for insurance claims.

Property Types We Secure in Mill Hill NW7

Mill Hill’s housing stock varies from large detached family homes in the village to flats above shops and occasional void properties:

Residential: Securing bay windows or patio doors in semis and villas without causing further damage.
Commercial: Quick fixes for cafes or offices on The Broadway, minimising downtime.
Vacant property: Longer-term options like steel security screens for empty homes between tenancies.

For example, last month we boarded up a vacant bungalow near Mill Hill East tube after squatters forced the back door. Using a temporary steel door, we secured it non-destructively in under an hour, giving the owner time to find new tenants.
