24/7 response · Fully insured · Boarding materials carried on the van · Property left secure before we leave

What we board up

A broken window, door or shopfront leaves the property exposed to weather, further damage and unauthorised entry. We arrive with boards, fixings and tools, measure the opening and fit a secure temporary barrier until permanent glazing or repair can be arranged.

  • Smashed or broken windows — ground floor, basement and accessible windows boarded securely.
  • Broken door panels and glazing — glass door panels, side lights and letterbox panels boarded after damage.
  • Break-in and burglary damage — doors and frames secured immediately after a burglary, with lock replacement done in the same visit where possible.
  • Shopfronts and commercial glazing — shop windows and glass doors boarded fast so you can trade again or close up safely.
  • Vacant and rental properties — boarding for landlords, letting agents and property managers between tenancies or after incidents.
  • Storm and accidental damage — cracked or blown-in glazing made safe until your glazier attends.

How our boarding up service works

  • Call or WhatsApp us — send photos of the damage and opening where possible so we can confirm the work, price and ETA before attendance.
  • Fast response — we carry boarding materials on the van, so there’s no second trip to a supplier.
  • Measured and cut on site — boards are cut to fit the opening and fixed securely to the frame, not the glass.
  • Locks checked — if the incident damaged your locks or door, we can repair or replace them in the same visit.
  • Paperwork for insurance — we can provide a receipt and description of works for your insurance claim.

Boarding up for shops, restaurants and landlords

Commercial glass often fails after closing, overnight or at weekends. We secure shopfronts, restaurant entrances, office glazing and communal access points across Finsbury Park and North London. Landlords, letting agents and property managers can send the address, access details and photos in one message; we can attend at short notice and provide paperwork for your records or insurer.

Emergency boarding-up prices and confirmation

Every opening is different, so the total depends on its size, access, damage, boarding material and any lock or door repairs required. Send photos where possible and we will confirm that boarding up is the right service, explain the price and obtain approval before work starts. No online payment is taken until the service and scope have been confirmed.

Frequently asked questions

How quickly can you board up my window or door?

We aim to be on site fast anywhere in Finsbury Park and the surrounding N4 area, 24 hours a day. Boarding materials are carried on the van so the job is usually completed in a single visit.

Do you replace the glass as well?

Our job is to make the property secure immediately. Boarding is a temporary measure — once the opening is safe, you can arrange glazing at your convenience, and we can recommend the right order of works if locks or frames also need attention.

Will boarding up be accepted by my insurance company?

Insurance requirements vary, so check your policy or speak to your insurer. We can provide an invoice and a description of the boarding work for your records or claim.

I’ve just been burgled — what should I do first?

Call the police and get a crime reference number, then call us. We’ll board any broken glazing, secure or replace damaged locks and make the property safe in one visit. See our burglary repairs page for the full service.

Do you board up commercial premises?

Yes — shopfronts, restaurants, offices and communal doors in flats. We work with business owners, letting agents and property managers and can invoice to account.

Small terms

Before work starts

We work carefully and choose the most suitable method for the situation. Locksmith tools can sometimes leave small cosmetic marks, scratches, or minor surface damage, especially on older doors, tight fittings, painted surfaces, seized locks, or already damaged hardware.

Prices depend on the job, parts required, time, and access. Please ask for confirmation before work begins.
