We’re local specialists in emergency boarding up across this leafy Chiswick enclave, covering the full W4 postcode from the conservation area’s tree-lined avenues to Chiswick High Road.

Services We Provide in Bedford Park W4
We handle all standard boarding up needs tailored to Bedford Park’s mix of residential gems and High Road commerce. Here’s what we offer:
Window Boarding
Broken or vulnerable windows are common here—perhaps from a stray football in Bedford Park Gardens or overnight vandalism. We use 18mm exterior-grade plywood cut to exact sizes, fixed with anti-tamper screws into the frame where possible. This prevents further intrusion while allowing light and ventilation. For conservation properties, we avoid drilling into listed frames if feasible. Learn more about window boarding.
Door Boarding Up
After a break-in via the front door on Priory Avenue, we board over with heavy-duty OSB or install a temporary steel door for better medium-term security. These doors fit standard openings and lock securely, ideal if you’re away organising repairs. We assess frame damage on-site and explain options transparently.
Shopfront Boarding
Chiswick High Road’s independent shops and cafes face risks from late-night incidents. Larger 18mm plywood panels or steel security screens secure wide glazing without obstructing displays. We’ve handled everything from glass storefronts to roller shutters here—quick fixes that minimise downtime. See shopfront boarding details.
Roof and Skylight Boarding
Storms battering exposed roofs on the higher parts near Turnham Green tube need urgent weatherproofing. We use reinforced boards with overlapping seals for skylights common in Edwardian extensions, plus scaffolding access if required. Not full repairs—we secure against rain and access. Full roof boarding info.
All work uses DBS-checked technicians with public liability insurance. You’ll get time-stamped before/after photos, an itemised invoice, and a work statement for insurers.
