Securing Properties After Any Accident
We are equipped to handle a wide range of accident scenarios, providing a calm and professional service when you need it most.
Vehicular Impact to Shopfronts and Walls
This is one of the most serious types of accident damage. A car or van colliding with a building can cause significant structural damage and leave a large opening. Our vehicular impact to shopfront boarding service involves:
- Safety First: Cordoning off the area to ensure public safety.
- Structural Caution: Assessing the immediate area for obvious structural risks. We are not structural engineers, but we will proceed with extreme caution.
- Robust Securing: Creating a strong timber hoarding to cover the entire damaged section, preventing access and protecting the interior.
Fallen Trees and Branches
During storms or high winds, trees can fall and cause immense damage to roofs, windows, and walls. We can board up the resulting openings to provide temporary weatherproofing and security.
Accidental Breakage
From a football smashing a patio door to a mishap during construction or renovation work, we can provide a fast broken window board up service for any accidental glass breakage.
Our Accident Response Process
- Immediate Dispatch: We understand that accidents require an urgent response. Our 24/7 team will be dispatched to your North London location immediately.
- Site Safety: Our first priority is to assess the scene for hazards. This may involve clearing debris and ensuring the area is safe for our technicians and the public.
- Professional Boarding: We use high-quality plywood or OSB to create a strong barrier. For significant structural openings, we can build a temporary timber hoarding.
- Temporary Doors: If a main entrance has been destroyed, we can often fit a temporary steel door to maintain secure access.
- Insurance Documentation: We provide a full, itemised invoice detailing the work carried out, which you can use for your insurance claim.
Board & Glaze Service Context
While our primary service is emergency boarding, this is the first step in the repair process. The security we provide gives you the time to arrange for permanent repairs. For standard window sizes, some clients may opt for a “board & glaze” service, where a glazier attends after us. We can coordinate with your chosen glazier to ensure a smooth handover.
FAQs about Accident Damage
### A car has hit my shop. Is it safe to board it up?
Safety is the absolute priority. If there is any suspicion of major structural damage, the emergency services and a structural engineer should be your first call. Once the area is declared safe to work in, we can proceed with boarding. Our technicians will conduct their own visual risk assessment upon arrival.
### Will your boarding be strong enough for a large hole?
Yes. For large openings, we construct a temporary timber hoarding with a supporting framework. This is designed to be a strong and robust barrier to secure the site effectively.
### How quickly can you attend an accident scene?
We treat accident damage as a high-priority emergency and will dispatch a team immediately upon your call. Our goal is to get to you as quickly as possible to help you make the site safe.
Don’t Delay After an Accident. Secure your property and ensure public safety with our professional emergency service.
