Services We Provide in Ladbroke Grove W10

We offer a full range of boarding up services West London tailored to the area’s residential and commercial mix. Here’s what we specialise in:

Window Boarding

Broken or vulnerable windows are common in Ladbroke Grove’s older sash designs. We secure them with 18mm exterior-grade plywood or 12mm OSB, fixed with anti-tamper screws that can’t be removed from outside. This prevents squatters or opportunists targeting empty upper flats. Learn more about window boarding.

Door Boarding Up

Forced doors on terraced homes or side entries get immediate attention. For longer-term needs, we install temporary steel doors that fit standard frames, weatherproof and robust for unattended properties. Ideal for the area’s rental market.

Shopfront Boarding

Along Golborne Road or Portobello Road’s independent retailers, large glazing demands heavy-duty panels. We use reinforced plywood overlaps and security fixings to protect against theft or accidental impacts from market crowds. See shopfront boarding details.

Roof and Skylight Boarding

Storm-damaged roofs on Edwardian conversions or skylights in mews houses require safe access—often via cherry pickers for the tall Ladbroke Grove properties. We weatherproof openings with weighted tarps under boards to handle London rain. Check roof boarding.

All work includes time-stamped photos before and after, plus an itemised invoice for your insurance claim.
