Emergency Boarding Up in Tolworth

Boarding up Tolworth is often the quickest, safest way to secure a home, shop or vacant property after a break-in, smash or storm damage. If you need urgent, reliable help in Tolworth (covering KT5 and KT6) we provide local, insured teams who work 24/7 to make properties safe and secure with non-destructive methods wherever possible.

When you need this

Common local situations where clients in Tolworth call us:

Post-burglary or break-in — secure doors and windows after forced entry.
Smashed shop window on Tolworth Broadway or around Tolworth Triangle.
Storm damage to windows, rooflights or doors after severe weather.
Vacant flats and houses needing medium-term security (void property).
Accidental impact (vehicle or delivery) to a ground-floor window or shopfront.

We work across the KT postcode area, including KT5 and KT6, and regularly attend jobs near Tolworth Tower, Tolworth Broadway and King George’s Field. Nearby stations and transport hubs we commonly attend include Tolworth rail station and nearby bus routes on Ewell Road.

Local micro case studies

Secured a broken ground-floor shop window on Tolworth Broadway (KT6) after a late-night vandalism incident—cleared glass, boarded externally with anti-tamper fixings and supplied time-stamped photos for the insurer.
Boarded and made safe a first-floor flat near the Tolworth Triangle (KT5) after a forced-entry; used non-destructive plywood fixing to preserve the frame for later glazing.
Temporary weatherproof boarding for a house near King George’s Field after a storm-damage call — we coordinated with a local roofer for follow-up repairs.

How we secure your property

We follow a clear, insurer-friendly approach designed to be fast, tidy and, where possible, non-destructive.

Rapid assessment — arrival with mobile kit, safety check and police liaison if required.
Secure fixings — we typically use exterior-grade plywood or OSB (commonly 9–18mm depending on the opening), fitted with anti-tamper fixings so boards cannot easily be removed from outside.
Optional metal solutions — for commercial premises or high-risk sites we install temporary steel doors or steel security screens.
Weatherproofing — bedding and sealant as needed around rooflights or exposed frames to prevent water ingress.
Proof for insurers — we provide time-stamped photos, an itemised invoice and a short work statement; please keep any police reference number handy.

We prefer non-destructive securing wherever possible. That means fastening boards to existing frames or using removable fixings that do not require cutting out frames. Exceptions are rare — for example, where structural damage prevents a safe non-destructive fix — and we will explain any necessary permanent work before starting.

Materials and workmanship

Plywood or OSB boarding (typical thickness range 9mm–18mm) chosen to suit the opening and insurer expectations.
Anti-tamper fixings and coach bolts for external security.
Temporary steel doors and Sitex-style security screens available for longer-term or high-risk commercial sites.
All technicians DBS-checked and our teams carry public liability insurance. We offer workmanship guarantees on completed boarding where applicable.
