Services We Provide in West Hendon NW9

We handle all types of boarding up tailored to West Hendon’s property mix, from high-rise apartments to local shops. Our technicians use the right materials for each job, explaining options on-site.

Window Boarding

Broken or vulnerable windows are common after incidents here—perhaps from a stray football near the Welsh Harp or deliberate damage. We measure precisely and fit 18mm plywood or 12mm OSB sheets with screws into the frame, avoiding damage where possible. This weatherproofs and secures until glaziers arrive. Learn more about window boarding.

Door Boarding Up

Forced doors leave properties exposed, especially on estates around West Hendon Broadway. We board over with heavy-duty plywood or install temporary steel doors for better medium-term security. Anti-tamper fixings prevent easy removal from outside.

Shopfront Boarding

Commercial units along Vivian Avenue or near Colindale station face high vandalism risk. Larger panels of marine plywood secure full shopfronts, with overlaps to block wind and rain. See our full shopfront boarding process.

Roof and Skylight Boarding

Storm damage to roofs over flats or garages happens during wet NW9 winters. We use access equipment for safe overhead securing, tarping first for weatherproofing. Details on roof boarding.

For any service, we provide time-stamped photos before and after, plus an itemised invoice for your insurer.
