Services We Provide in Locksbottom BR6

We handle a full range of boarding up services tailored to BR6 properties, from quick fixes to more involved secures. Here’s what we cover:

Window boarding: For cracked panes or forced entries on homes along Breakspear Road or flats near Crofton Road. We cut 18mm exterior-grade plywood to fit precisely, securing with anti-tamper fixings that can’t be prised off from outside.
Door boarding: Damaged front or rear doors on semi-detached houses common in Locksbottom. Options include plywood overlays or installing a temporary steel door for better medium-term security if the frame needs repair.
Shopfront boarding: The retail units on Crofton Road’s parade often need fast response for overnight protection. We use reinforced 18mm plywood or OSB panels for larger spans, ensuring trading can resume safely.
Roof boarding: Skylights or roof damage from fallen branches in back gardens near the playing fields. Weatherproofing is key here—we tarp vulnerable areas first and board securely, coordinating access around pitched roofs typical of local bungalows.

For longer-term needs on vacant properties, ask about our steel security screens. All work uses materials suited to Bromley’s damp climate, and we provide time-stamped photos before and after.

Emergency Situations We Handle in Locksbottom

Emergency boarding up in Locksbottom BR6 covers the incidents that hit hardest in this quiet suburb. We’ve secured properties after:

Burglary repairs: A rear window smashed on a house off Crofton Road—common after opportunistic break-ins near the A21. We secure immediately, giving you police reference documentation.
Vandalism repair: Youths targeting a shopfront on the Locksbottom parade. Quick plywood installation prevents further damage overnight.
Storm damage: High winds lifting slates on older homes near Petts Wood station, or debris through a window. We prioritise weatherproofing to avoid water ingress.
Fire damage: Post-fire securing around the hospital vicinity or residential streets—we work with fire services but don’t handle smoke cleanup.
Flood damage: Swollen frames after heavy rain in low-lying garden flats. Ventilation holes in boards prevent mould while securing.

Take photos if safe, note your police crime number, and contact your insurer early. We’re not adjusters, but our itemised invoices and work statements support claims smoothly.
