Services We Provide in Enfield Wash EN3
We handle all standard boarding up needs across EN3, using materials suited to the area’s damp conditions near the River Lea.
-
Window boarding: For cracked or broken panes in homes along Durants Park or flats near Turkey Street station. We use 18mm exterior-grade plywood cut to fit, secured with anti-tamper screws to withstand overnight exposure.
-
Door boarding: Securing kicked-in front or back doors on terraced houses or side entries. Options include heavy-duty OSB panels or temporary steel doors for longer-term needs, fitted non-destructively where possible.
-
Shopfront boarding: Quick secures for retail units on Hertford Road after overnight incidents. Larger plywood sheets overlap frames, fixed to brickwork, keeping businesses trading from the next day.
-
Roof boarding: For storm-lifted tiles or damaged skylights on bungalows or low commercial roofs. We weatherproof openings with reinforced panels, mindful of access from the surrounding suburban streets.
These services prevent squatters, vermin, or rain damage—common worries here after dark. See full details on our services page.

Real scenario from Enfield Wash: Last winter, a terraced house on Wash Lane had its back door forced during a burglary. The owner, rattled after finding drawers emptied, called us at 2am.
