Chart Sutton sits in the Kent countryside, just a short drive from Maidstone town centre via the A20. With its mix of period homes, working farms, and scattered bungalows, properties here face unique challenges like high winds whipping across open fields or opportunistic break-ins when homes stand empty. Our team understands these local risks because we’ve secured dozens of properties right here—from the churchyard of St Michael and All Angels to the edges of the Chart Hills Golf Club area. We use 18mm exterior-grade plywood for windows and anti-tamper fixings that hold firm against rural weather, ensuring your home or outbuilding stays protected until glaziers or builders arrive.

Services We Provide in Chart Sutton ME17

We handle all types of boarding up services Chart Sutton ME17 requires, tailored to the area’s rural and village properties. Here’s what we offer:

Window Boarding

Broken windows from stones thrown on Sutton Valence Road or storm debris? We measure on-site and fit 18mm plywood sheets, secured with coach bolts into the frame. This prevents further weather ingress or intrusion, vital for unheated cottages where damp spreads quickly.

Door Boarding Up

Forced entries leave doors hanging off hinges—we board them securely or fit temporary steel doors for better medium-term protection. In Chart Sutton’s spread-out homes, where police response might take time, these hold up to attempts from outside.

Shopfront and Commercial Boarding

Though Chart Sutton is mostly residential, nearby village shops or farm outlets get hit too. Larger 18mm panels overlap frames for shopfront boarding, using galvanised fixings to withstand the elements.

Roof and Skylight Boarding

High winds off the North Downs can lift slates on older roofs—we access safely (often with ladders for single-storey farm buildings) and cover with weatherproof plywood, taped at edges to shed rainwater.

Real Scenario from Chart Sutton: Last autumn, high winds tore slates off a farmhouse roof near Headcorn Road. The owner, worried about rain ruining hay bales inside, called us out of hours.

Dry inside by morning—no further damage.
