How we secure your property in Horton

We follow a clear, insurer-friendly process and prefer non-destructive methods wherever possible.

• Assessment and safety: we check for hazards (sharp glass, unstable frames) and secure the scene.
• Temporary waterproofing: where weather is a risk we fit plywood/OSB and temporary seals to keep interiors dry.
• Boarding materials: we commonly use exterior-grade plywood or OSB, typically 9mm–18mm depending on the opening and risk level. For shopfronts or larger openings we can use thicker boards or steel security screens.
• Fixings and security: anti-tamper fixings are used so boards cannot be removed easily from outside. For insecure doors we can supply temporary steel doors or secure the frame non-destructively where feasible.
• Evidence for insurers: we produce time-stamped photos, an itemised invoice and a simple work statement. Please keep any police reference number if a crime was reported.

We only use destructive options (for example, cutting back a badly damaged frame) when necessary for safety or on the advice of a structural professional. In such cases we explain the reasons and steps clearly before proceeding.
