- Window boarding: For cracked or broken panes in homes along Station Road or bungalows in newer estates. We fix plywood panels with anti-tamper screws to secure against weather and intruders.
- Door boarding: Securing forced entries or damaged frames, including fitting temporary steel doors for longer-term protection on vacant semis.
- Shopfront boarding: Quick securing for retail units near Newington High Street, using reinforced panels to cover large glazing while minimising disruption.
- Roof boarding: Weatherproofing damaged roofs or skylights, essential after storms in this exposed area near the Swale.
Each job includes time-stamped photos before and after, plus an itemised invoice for your insurer. We explain options on-site—if a frame is too damaged, we’ll discuss repairs or alternatives transparently.
Emergency Situations We Handle in Newington
Newington’s position between Sittingbourne and the Hoo Peninsula exposes properties to wind, vandalism, and break-ins. We secure after:
- Burglary or break-ins: Boarding smashed windows or doors right away, providing police and insurance-ready documentation.
- Vandalism: Graffiti or stone-throwing damage to homes or shops—we clean up fixings and board securely.
- Storm damage: High winds off the estuary can lift slates or shatter glass; we prioritise weatherproofing.
- Fire damage: Post-fire securing (we don’t do remediation), coordinating if fire services are on site.
- Flood damage: Swollen timber frames from nearby marshland runoff—we ventilate while boarding.
Take photos if safe, note your police reference, and call us. We’re not loss adjusters, but our reports match what insurers expect.
