What Happens When You Call Us in Little Heath

We keep it simple, especially in urgent situations:

Call or message: Dial 01708 973 306 or email [email protected]. Tell us the issue—a forced door in RM6 needs boarding up, shopfront smashed near the high street—and your postcode. We’ll ask a few quick questions for a realistic ETA.
We attend and assess: Our DBS-checked technician arrives with tools and materials. We check the damage (e.g., frame integrity for window boarding), discuss options, and explain if non-destructive methods work or if alternatives like temporary steel doors are needed.
Secure and document: We board up using 18mm exterior-grade plywood or 12mm OSB for smaller openings, with anti-tamper fixings to prevent easy removal from outside. You get time-stamped before/after photos, an itemised invoice, and a work statement for your insurer—all essential for make-safe claims.

We prioritise urgent calls in RM6 but don’t quote fixed arrival times—traffic around Chadwell Heath station or evening workloads can vary. If safe, take photos before we arrive and note your police reference number.

Emergency Boarding Up and Make-Safe in Little Heath

Most calls from Little Heath RM6 are emergencies: secure property after a break-in, board up door kicked in overnight, or temporary boarding for weather-hit openings. We handle the immediate risks—weather exposure, further intrusion—while providing insurer-ready paperwork.

Smashed window? Quick plywood fit over the frame, sealed against rain.
Forced entry door? Heavy-duty boarding or temporary steel door if it’s a longer-term need.
Shopfront boarded up? Larger panels for high-street units, mindful of passing footfall.

For insurance, our documentation covers the make-safe basics: photos showing the damage and our fixings, plus notes on access challenges like on-street parking in busier spots near the station.
