What Happens When You Call Us for Boarding Up in Goudhurst
- You call or request callback: Describe the damage—smashed window, forced door, or roof breach. Note your police reference if it’s a break-in.
- We assess remotely and head out: Based on details, we confirm it’s boarding up (not full repairs) and mobilise. Typical attendance depends on time and workload, but Goudhurst’s central TN17 spot means we’re never far.
- On-site securing: We measure, cut 18mm exterior-grade plywood or 12mm OSB to fit, fix with anti-tamper screws, and weatherproof. Job done, you get time-stamped before/after photos, itemised invoice, and work statement for insurers.
This make-safe process protects against weather, squatters, or further theft—crucial after dark in quieter TN17 spots like the B2079 edges.

Most calls in Goudhurst are urgent: emergency boarding up for immediate security. We handle smashed windows, board up doors, and larger shopfront boarding on the High Street. For leaks or access issues, roof boarding uses reinforced panels fixed non-destructively where possible.
Common here:
- Burglary: Secure the entry point fast—post-burglary boarding with temporary steel doors if needed.
- Vandalism: Youth-targeted attacks on parked cars or pub windows—quick plywood over broken glass.
- Storm damage: High winds battering exposed cottages—emergency weatherproofing to prevent water ingress.
- Fire or flood: Post-incident perimeter security (we don’t remediate)—docs ready for insurance claims.
Take photos if safe, keep your police number, and call your insurer early. We’re not adjusters, but our paperwork matches what they need.
