We cover Motspur Park and nearby neighbourhoods with experienced, DBS-checked technicians, public liability insurance and insurer-friendly paperwork.
When you need this
We commonly respond in Motspur Park (KT3) to situations such as:
- Burglary or break-in — secure doors and windows after forced entry
- Vandalism or smashed shopfronts on New Malden High Street or Coombe Road
- Storm damage that leaves windows, skylights or doors exposed
- Accidental impact (vehicle into glazing or shopfront)
- Vacant property / void security for landlords and estate managers
Local landmarks and hyper-local references we regularly work around include Motspur Park railway station, New Malden High Street and the Beverley Brook green corridor. Nearby areas we serve include New Malden, Raynes Park, Worcester Park and Tolworth.
How we secure your property
Our approach in Motspur Park is to make properties safe quickly while keeping works non-destructive wherever possible.
Typical steps we take:
- Rapid assessment on arrival and photographic record (time-stamped) for insurers.
- Remove loose glass or debris safely and cordon the area if necessary.
- Temporary boarding: exterior-grade plywood or OSB fitted with anti-tamper fixings.
- Common materials: 18mm exterior-grade plywood for doors and larger openings; 12mm–15mm plywood or OSB for windows.
- Where necessary, supply temporary steel doors or Sitex-style security screens for shopfronts and void properties.
- Guarantee tidy work and a neat finish that meets many insurers’ expectations.
- Provide an itemised invoice and a simple work statement to support insurance claims.
We use stainless steel fixings and anti-tamper screws so boards cannot be easily removed from the outside. Our technicians prefer non-destructive securing — screwing through existing frames where possible — but in rare cases (severely warped frames, structural damage) minor removal of glazing or frames may be required; we explain this clearly before work starts.
If your shopfront glazing has been smashed, we can provide temporary boarding and can liaise with an emergency glazier where needed.

FAQs
How quickly can you board up a property in Motspur Park?
We operate 24/7 for genuine emergencies and aim to dispatch local teams promptly. We avoid promising specific ETAs but will explain arrival as soon as we can when you call.
Will boarding up damage my window or frame?
We use non-destructive securing wherever possible — fixing through existing frames or to brickwork. If a frame is too damaged to hold a board safely, we will explain any necessary removal beforehand.
What materials do you use for boarding?
We typically use 18mm exterior-grade plywood for doors and larger openings, and 12–15mm plywood or OSB for windows. For commercial premises we can fit Sitex-style security screens or temporary steel doors.
Can you provide paperwork for my insurance claim?
Yes. We supply time-stamped photos, an itemised invoice and a brief work statement. Please keep your police reference number and any insurer instructions; we are not loss adjusters but will support your claim with clear documentation.
How long can temporary boarding stay in place?
Temporary boarding is intended as a short- to medium-term solution. For vacant properties or long-term security we offer heavier-duty screens and temporary steel doors — see our vacant property options.
