How we secure your property in Weston Green
We prioritise non-destructive securing wherever possible, explaining any exception first (for example, where structural damage means a fragment of frame must be removed).
Typical steps and materials:
- Rapid assessment on arrival to identify hazards and best fix method.
- Window boarding using exterior-grade plywood or OSB from 9mm (temporary glazing) up to 18mm for higher-risk ground-floor openings.
- Door boarding and temporary secure doors — timber boarding for short-term fixes, and temporary steel doors where a higher level of security is required.
- Anti-tamper fixings are used for external boards so they can’t be easily removed from outside; we always balance security with future removal and minimal damage.
- Sitex-style steel security screens or roller-shutter coordination for commercial premises when requested.
- Time-stamped photos, an itemised invoice and a short work statement provided on completion for insurers; please keep any police reference number you have.
Safety and methods:
- Our technicians are DBS-checked and trained in safe access and working at height.
- We use ladders, telehandlers or mobile towers as required and follow a simple RAMS approach on commercial jobs.
- Where weatherproofing is needed (roof, skylight or heavy storm damage), we can board and temporary-tarp while arranging follow-up with roofers or glaziers.
