Emergency Boarding Up in Oxshott

If you need boarding up Oxshott right now, we provide fast, local help across KT22 and the wider Kingston (KT1–KT24) area. Our team responds 24/7 to secure homes, shops and vacant properties after break‑ins, vandalism, storm damage or accidental impact — with insurer-friendly paperwork and a practical, non‑alarmist approach.

When you need this

Common situations local to Oxshott where we’re called include:

• Burglary or break‑in to a house near Oxshott High Street or the Village Green.
• Smashed windows or shopfront glass at a small local business by Oxshott railway station.
• Storm damage to skylights or roof glazing around Oxshott Heath.
• Accidental impact (e.g., delivery vehicle or tree limb) causing unsafe openings.

Micro case studies — real outcomes, anonymised

• Late evening broken window at a ground‑floor home near the station: we boarded and secured the window using 18mm plywood with anti‑tamper fixings and supplied time‑stamped photos for the insurer.
• Weekend shopfront smash on Oxshott High Street: same‑day shopfront boarding using OSB panels and temporary security screening so the shop could re‑open the following morning.
• Skylight blown open on a residential roof near the Gallops: temporary weatherproof boarding and handover to a roofer for a permanent repair.

We cover Oxshott (KT22) and neighbourhoods nearby such as Cobham, Esher, Claygate and Hinchley Wood, attending out‑of‑hours incidents and planning safe, tidy make‑safe work.

How we secure your property

We follow a clear, insurer‑friendly process that favours non‑destructive securing wherever possible.

Materials and methods

• Plywood/OSB boarding: typically 9mm–18mm depending on size and required strength; we use exterior‑grade materials for weather resistance.
• Anti‑tamper fixings: screws and tamper‑resistant fixings designed so panels can’t be easily removed from outside.
• Temporary steel doors and Sitex‑style or anti‑vandal security screens for vacant or high‑risk properties.
• Weatherproofing: foam or compressible seals and tape where a quick weatherproof seal is needed before permanent repairs.

Our approach

1. Risk assessment on arrival — safety first (electrics, structural hazards).
2. Non‑destructive work where possible (screwing into frame rather than trimming frames out).
3. Time‑stamped photos and an itemised invoice/work statement for insurers.
4. Clean, secure handover with clear instructions for your insurer or repair contractor.

Exceptions

• Where the frame is badly damaged or the structure unsafe, limited removal or more substantial work may be required to secure the property safely. We will explain any such necessary work and why it’s needed before starting.

FAQs

How quickly can you attend in Oxshott (KT22)?

We operate 24/7 with mobile teams serving KT postcodes. We don’t quote fixed ETAs online, but we aim to mobilise promptly and will confirm when a technician is dispatched.

Will boarding cause damage to my window or door frame?

We use non‑destructive methods wherever possible — for example, screwing into existing frames rather than cutting them out. If a frame is structurally damaged we will explain why further work is needed before proceeding.

What evidence do you provide for insurance claims?

After the job we supply time‑stamped photos, an itemised invoice and a short work statement. Please keep any police reference number and share it with your insurer.

Do you offer longer‑term security for vacant properties?

Yes — for voids and vacant properties we can install Sitex‑style security screens or temporary steel doors and arrange key‑holding or access management. See our pages on vacant property boarding for options.
