Services We Provide in Ruislip Gardens HA4
We handle all types of boarding up HA4, tailored to the job at hand. Here’s what we offer locally:
-
Window boarding: For cracked panes or forced entries in homes around Ruislip Gardens station. We measure on-site, cut plywood to fit snugly, and use anti-tamper screws to prevent easy removal—crucial in unattended properties.
-
Door boarding up: Damaged front or rear doors get immediate security, often with temporary steel doors for longer-term protection. Common after burglaries in this residential pocket.
-
Shopfront boarding: Larger panels for the few retail units along Bilton Road or nearby parades. We use reinforced fixings to withstand potential repeat attempts.

Roof boarding: Securing skylights or damaged sections after storms, especially on the bungalows and low-rise flats here. Access via ladders or scaffolding if needed, with tarpaulin underneath for weatherproofing.
These services keep your Ruislip Gardens property safe until glaziers or builders arrive. We don’t do glass replacement ourselves—that’s for specialists—but our boarding holds up well in the area’s variable weather.
