What Happens When You Call for Boarding Up in Welling
We keep it simple, especially when you’re dealing with a secure property emergency:
- Phone us on 01322 952 450—tell us the issue (e.g., emergency window boarding or damaged door), location in DA16, and any access details. We’ll give a realistic ETA based on current calls.
- We arrive and assess—using ladders for upper windows or scaffolding for awkward spots like those around Welling High Street. No frame damage if possible; we explain options upfront.
- Secure and document—fit 18mm plywood or OSB with anti-tamper fixings, take time-stamped photos, and leave an itemised invoice plus work statement for your insurer.
Temporary boarding like this makes your property weatherproof and secure until glaziers or repairs arrive. We’re not loss assessors, but our paperwork matches what insurers in the Dartford area expect.

- Detailed invoice breaking down materials (e.g., 12mm OSB for smaller openings) and labour.
