When You Need Emergency Boarding Up in Raynes Park
Breakages and security incidents rarely happen at a convenient time. We provide 24/7 emergency boarding up, same day boarding up and out-of-hours boarding up throughout SW20, including around Raynes Park Station, Coombe Lane, Grand Drive and the retail stretch on Approach Road. Common reasons to call us include:
- Burglary or attempted break-in: broken doors, smashed locks, forced frames.
- Vandalism: smashed window boarding for homes and retail units on and off the high street.
- Accidental damage: ball strikes, cracked panes, vehicular impact to a shopfront.
- Storm damage: wind-blown sash windows, skylights, or roof lights after severe weather.
- Fire or flood: make-safe securing to control access while you organise remediation.
We help homeowners, tenants, landlords, shop owners and facility managers keep properties safe and weather-tight while permanent repairs are arranged.
How We Secure Your Property
Our approach is calm, methodical and insurer-friendly. We aim for non-destructive securing wherever possible; exceptions include severe structural damage or unsafe frames where through-fixing is required for safety.
- Assessment and safety: We assess the opening (size, height, frame condition) and clear glass debris. We cordon off the area if needed for public safety, especially near the station footfall or on busier roads like Coombe Lane.
- Materials: We carry trade-grade plywood and OSB boarding in suitable thicknesses for the opening. For larger shopfronts in SW20 we may double-sheet or brace to prevent flexing.
- Fixings: We use anti-tamper fixings designed so they can’t be easily removed from outside. Where possible, we secure into existing frames or internal anchor points to avoid unnecessary damage.
- Doors and access: For compromised entrances we can fit a temporary secure door or temporary steel doors to maintain access control.
- Screens for longer-term security: For vacant or void properties, we can install steel security screens (Sitex-style anti-vandal security screens) with anti-tamper fixings for medium-term protection.
- Weatherproofing: For roof lights and skylights, we provide temporary weatherproofing and liaise with your roofer if needed.
- Documentation for insurers: We supply time-stamped photos, a simple work statement and an itemised invoice. Keep any police reference number you receive.
If you need follow-on glazing, we can coordinate board-up-and-glaze via our trusted partners, keeping your property secure until glass replacement is completed.

Case Studies in SW20
- Burglary at a terraced house near Grand Drive (SW20): The rear patio door was forced. We installed an internal board with anti-tamper fixings to avoid further frame damage and fitted a temporary secure door panel. Photos and an itemised invoice were provided for the insurer; the homeowner had their police reference number ready.
- Shopfront impact on Coombe Lane (SW20): A passing delivery trolley cracked a large pane at closing time. We safely cleared loose glass, boarded the shopfront using thicker OSB for rigidity, and ensured the shutter operated normally. The owner arranged glass replacement the next day.
- Storm-damaged skylight off Worple Road (SW20): High winds dislodged a skylight. We erected safe access, weatherproofed the opening and boarded it until the roofer replaced the unit, protecting the interior from further rain.
