Services We Provide in Orpington BR6
Orpington BR6 has a mix of suburban homes, retail units on the High Street, and light commercial properties near the station. We tailor our boarding up services to fit:
-
Window boarding: Using 18mm exterior-grade plywood or 12mm OSB for broken panes. Ideal for the bay windows common in 1930s semis around Priory Gardens or casements in older homes off the High Street. We secure with anti-tamper fixings to deter further issues.
-
Door boarding: For forced entries or damaged frames. We can fit temporary steel doors for longer-term security, especially useful for vacant properties near Crofton Road.
-
Shopfront boarding: Larger panels for commercial glazing on Orpington High Street or the Walnuts Shopping Centre area. We use reinforced materials to protect stock and allow business continuity.
-
Roof boarding: Securing skylights or damaged sections after storms, common in the exposed outskirts towards Knockholt. Weatherproofing is key to prevent water ingress.
These services keep your property safe until glaziers or repairs arrive. We explain options on-site, including non-destructive methods where possible.
Emergency Situations We Handle in Orpington
BR6 sees its share of incidents—from opportunistic burglaries near the station to storm damage during high winds sweeping across the green spaces. Here’s how we respond:
-
Burglary repairs: Secure smashed windows or doors right after a break-in. Keep your police crime reference number handy; we document everything for claims.
-
Vandalism repair: Quick fixes for graffiti-tagged shopfronts or thrown bricks through residential glass, often reported around busier evenings on the High Street.
-
Storm damage: Boarding exposed openings after fallen branches or flying debris, vital in leafy Orpington suburbs.
-
Fire damage: Post-fire securing—we coordinate with the fire service but don’t handle smoke cleanup.
-
Flood damage: Boarding swollen frames while allowing ventilation, especially after heavy rain affects lower-lying homes near the River Cray.
Call 020 4634 7872 for any of these—we prioritise BR6 calls.
