Services We Provide in New Barnet EN4

We handle all standard boarding up services tailored to EN4 properties. Here’s what we offer:

Window Boarding

For cracked or broken windows common in New Barnet’s older homes, we fit 18mm exterior-grade plywood cut precisely to the frame. Anti-tamper fixings ensure it holds against opportunists, vital when you’re dealing with insurance after hours.

Door Boarding Up

Damaged front or rear doors get secured with heavy-duty OSB or plywood, or we can install temporary steel doors for longer-term needs. This is popular for vacant flats near the station where standard boarding might not suffice.

Shopfront Boarding

East Barnet Road’s retail units often face vandalism—we board up large glazed fronts with reinforced panels, overlapping joints for weatherproofing. Our approach minimises disruption to nearby businesses.

Roof and Skylight Boarding

After storm damage to pitched roofs on bungalows or Edwardian houses, we access safely (ladders and scaffolding where needed) and cover with waterproof sheets under plywood. Smoke vents get special attention to prevent water ingress.
