Answer: Boarding up services are designed to secure windows, doors, and other entry points to protect properties from damage due to vandalism, theft, natural disasters, or other potential threats. This preventative measure helps to maintain the safety and integrity of the property until permanent repairs can be made.
Answer: The most common material used is plywood, due to its strength and availability. Depending on the level of security required, additional materials such as metal sheets or bars can also be used. The choice of material will depend on the specific needs of the property and the potential threats it faces.
Answer: Yes, boarding up services can be tailored to meet specific requirements. This includes custom cutting of plywood to fit unique window or door sizes, adding extra reinforcement for high-risk areas, or using additional security features like metal bars or shutters.
Answer: Boarding up is typically used when a property is at risk of damage from severe weather events (like storms or hurricanes), during periods of heightened security risk (such as after a break-in or vandalism), or when a property is vacant and requires extra protection. It is also useful when immediate repairs are not possible.
Answer: The duration of the boarding up process depends on the size and number of openings that need to be covered. Generally, it can take a few hours to a full day to complete, including preparation and installation. For urgent situations, expedited services can often be arranged.
Answer: We ensure the boarding up is secure by using high-quality materials and following best practices for installation. This includes securely fastening boards with screws or nails, checking for any gaps or weaknesses, and reinforcing the boards as needed. We also conduct a final inspection to verify that all entry points are properly covered and secured.
