Emergency Boarding Up in Hampton — boarding up Hampton

If you need boarding up Hampton after a break-in, storm or accidental damage, we provide fast, professional boarding up and emergency securing across Hampton (KT8). Our local Kingston team is available 24/7 for urgent same-day response, non-destructive temporary fixes and insurer-friendly paperwork to help you secure the property quickly and keep neighbours and visitors safe.

When you need this

Common situations in Hampton where property owners call us:

• Burglary or post-break-in damage — secure doors and windows after a break-in.
• Vandalism or smashed windows on Hampton High Street and nearby shopping areas.
• Storm damage to windows, doors or skylights near the River Thames and Bushy Park.
• Accidental impact (e.g., vehicle vs shopfront) or boarding for vacant properties between short lets.

We cover Hampton (KT8) and the wider Kingston area (KT postcodes), working across residential streets, High Street shops and riverside properties near Hampton Court Palace and Bushy Park.

How we secure your property

We aim to use non-destructive securing methods wherever possible to protect frames and glazing. Typical steps and materials we use:

• Site assessment and safety: we cordon hazards, remove loose glass where safe and advise on structural risks.
• Temporary boarding: exterior-grade plywood or OSB, typically 9mm–18mm depending on the opening—thicker panels (12–18mm) for shopfronts and doors, 9–12mm for domestic windows.
• Fixings: anti-tamper fixings designed so they can’t be easily removed from outside; we explain how they are fitted and why they meet insurer requirements.
• Steel options: temporary steel doors and steel security screens (Sitex-style) for higher-risk or vacant properties.
• Weatherproofing: timber boards sealed at edges or combined with temporary seal tape/tarpaulins for storm-damaged openings.
• Evidence for insurers: time-stamped photos, an itemised invoice and a simple work statement. Keep any police reference number and we’ll include that on your paperwork.

We avoid cutting into frames unless the structure is unsafe or the glass is embedded and dangerous. If a non-destructive approach isn’t possible (for example, severe frame distortion after impact), we’ll explain the reasons, document the condition and get your authorisation before proceeding.

FAQs

How quickly can you board up a house in Hampton?

We operate 24/7 and aim for same-day response across KT postcodes. We don’t give hard ETAs online, but our mobile teams are dispatched promptly and we’ll confirm an arrival window when you call.

Will boarding a window damage my frame?

Where possible we use non-destructive methods using anti-tamper fixings. If a frame is badly damaged or distorted (for example after impact), we’ll explain why further work is necessary before proceeding.

What paperwork do you provide for my insurer?

We supply time-stamped photos, an itemised invoice, and a simple work statement describing the works carried out. Keep any police reference number and we’ll reference it in our documents.
