Southwark is no stranger to movement — Borough Market's buzz, The Shard's shadows, the hum of Bermondsey's creatives. But when your shopfront shatters or your flat door is smashed during a break-in, all that energy can feel like it's working against you. That's when you need calm, immediate help. That's when you need us.

We're not a call centre. We're your South London, boots-on-the-ground boarding-up professionals who know SE1 to SE17 like the backs of our gloves. Whether your shopfront has been vandalised, your home security has been breached, or your window boarding can't wait—we're the first number to dial. We arrive fast, work smart, and make sure you feel safe again before the dust settles.

Your Safety, Sealed in Minutes: Why Locals Trust Us

Property damage in Southwark happens fast, and the aftermath can be worse than the event itself. Whether it's a pub window on Old Kent Road or a flat entrance in Peckham, our emergency boarding team arrives the same day, often within 20 minutes.

We don't just throw up a board and call it done. We secure it to insurance-approved standards, keep it weatherproof, and advise on the next steps. Need a glazier service tomorrow? We've got the contacts. Need overnight temporary security? We've got you boarded.

And yes, we work every single day, all weekend, and all night—there are no extra charges for panic.

Residential, Retail, and Commercial – Covered

Southwark is mixed, and so are the properties we protect. Our boarding service is tailored to fit every type of building — from period homes in Dulwich Village to busy convenience stores in Elephant and Castle. Each situation gets its care, because cookie-cutter doesn't cut it when your glass is gone.

We handle:

• House windows and broken door panels

• Flats and communal entrance doorsteps

• Retail boarding for small shops and chains

• Business protection for offices and warehouses

• Commercial property security for landlords and agents

Your building's age, structure, and use all factor into how we respond. That's why our repeat clients include both homeowners and property managers across Southwark.

Crisis-Proof Services That Work

The difference between panic and peace? Planning. We're more than just a quick boarding service — we're your long-term partner in property security. And we don't wait for disasters to strike. We offer vacant property boarding for derelict or empty buildings. CCTV boarding and alarm installation are also available for clients looking to level up their protection.

Southwark councils, housing associations, and independent landlords trust our emergency service because we're known for:

• Arriving when we say we will.

• Bringing everything we need.

• Leaving the site secure, no matter how complex the job.

From fire damage to storm damage, from burglary repair to broken glass, we've seen it all. We'll stop the mess from getting worse and start restoring safety.

Keeping Southwark Safe, One Board at a Time

We know the borough, we know the risks, and we know how it feels to wake up to a broken door or return home to shattered glass. That's why we take your safety personally.

Our work doesn't just keep the rain out—it keeps opportunists out, too. A boarded property sends a message: this place is protected. So whether you're a tenant, a landlord, a shop owner, or a property manager, we're here to make sure your message is loud and clear.
