Services We Provide in Larkfield

We handle all standard boarding-up needs across ME20, tailored to Larkfield’s property styles:

Window boarding: For cracked or broken panes in those typical double-glazed units on Larkfield homes. We use 18mm exterior-grade plywood cut to fit precisely, secured with anti-tamper screws to keep weather and intruders out.
Door boarding: Damaged front or rear doors get immediate protection, or we can fit temporary steel doors for longer-term security on vacant spots near Leybourne Lake Country Park.
Shopfront boarding: Quick response for retail units along the A20 corridor or small businesses on New Hythe Lane, using reinforced OSB or plywood panels strong enough for larger commercial glazing.
Roof boarding: Skylights or storm-lifted tiles on bungalows and low-pitched roofs common here—we access safely and weatherproof from above.

These services keep your property secure until glaziers or repairs arrive, and we provide time-stamped photos and a work statement for your records.

Common Emergency Situations in Larkfield

Larkfield’s position between the M20 and A228 exposes it to quick-response needs after incidents:

Burglary repairs: Forced entry through a patio door—common in back gardens backing onto green spaces. We secure fast to prevent repeat visits.
Vandalism repair: Youth-related window smashes near local parks or the high street shops.
Storm damage: High winds off the Downs battering roofs or fences along exposed lanes.
Fire damage: Post-blaze securing, coordinating if needed with Kent Fire and Rescue who cover this patch.
Flood damage: Water-swollen frames after heavy rain on the clay soils around here—we ventilate while boarding.

Keep your police crime reference number handy, take safe photos beforehand, and contact your insurer early—we’re not adjusters but our documentation helps claims.

Property Types We Cover in Larkfield ME20

From residential to commercial, Larkfield’s blend keeps us busy:

Residential: Semis and detached homes on streets like Preston Avenue or the quieter estate roads—quick access even late.
Commercial: Takeaways, pubs like The Papermakers Arms area, or units in nearby New Hythe Industrial Estate.
Vacant property: Void homes between tenancies or empty shops—we offer steel security screens for extended protection.

No matter the building, we assess on arrival: if a frame’s too damaged for non-destructive fixing, we’ll talk options upfront.
