Boarding Up Bromley Common BR2
If you’ve had a break-in, storm damage, or vandalism on your property in Bromley Common BR2, boarding up Bromley Common specialists are ready to help. We’re local to the BR2 area, covering the suburban streets around Bromley Common road, from the family homes on Pickhurst Lane to the commercial units near the Hayes (Kent) railway station.

Bromley Common BR2 mixes interwar semi-detached houses with some modern flats and small retail spots along the main road. When windows smash or doors are forced after a burglary near St Luke’s Church or the War Memorial, you need a response that understands these local access challenges, like narrow drives or period frames common here.
Services We Provide in Bromley Common BR2
We handle all standard boarding up services tailored to BR2 properties, using materials suited to the area’s weather exposure and property styles.
-
Window boarding: For cracked or broken panes in those characteristic 1930s bay windows on Bastian Road. We measure on-site, cut 18mm exterior-grade plywood to fit precisely, and secure with anti-tamper screws from the inside where possible.
-
Door boarding: Securing forced entries on front or rear doors, including options for temporary steel doors on vacant semis. These hold up better than plywood for medium-term security if your Hayes-side rental is empty.
-
Shopfront boarding: Larger panels for the few retail units along Bromley Common, using reinforced OSB or ply to weatherproof overnight after vandalism.
-
Roof boarding: Accessing pitched roofs on bungalows near the Common, tarping first then boarding skylights or holes from storm debris—vital in this elevated spot prone to wind gusts.
Each job uses DBS-checked technicians with public liability insurance, providing time-stamped photos before and after for your records.
Emergency Situations We Cover in BR2
BR2 sees its share of incidents, from teen vandalism on quiet lanes to storm fallout on exposed ridges. Here’s how we respond to common situations:
-
Burglary repairs: Post-break-in on a terraced house off Pickhurst Lane—secure the entry point same day if called early.
-
Vandalism repair: Smashed glass from antisocial behaviour near the station; we board quickly to deter repeat visits.
-
Storm damage: Fallen branches through roofs after gales sweeping the Common—weatherproof openings to prevent water ingress.
-
Fire damage: Coordinate with fire services for post-blaze securing, focusing on structural openings without handling smoke cleanup.
-
Flood damage: Swollen timber frames from heavy rain runoff; ventilate while boarding to avoid mould.
-
Accident damage: Vehicle impacts on garage doors near the A21 junction.
Keep your police crime reference if applicable, and take safe photos beforehand—we supply itemised invoices and work descriptions for insurers.
Property Types We Secure in Bromley Common
From owner-occupied homes to lettings, we adapt to BR2’s housing mix:

Residential: Family semis and bungalows around the War Memorial—non-destructive fixings to preserve frames.
-
Commercial: Small shops and offices along Bromley Common road, with minimal disruption for trading next day.
-
Vacant property: Steel security screens for empty ex-council houses between tenancies, common in this landlord-heavy suburb.
