Why emergency board-up matters
Emergency board-up means closing off and protecting the openings of a damaged building in a temporary but solid way: doors, windows, storefronts, roofs or walls. It keeps unauthorized people out, limits water, wind and animals getting in, and protects what remains of your property until repairs are made.
When should you call a board-up service?
As soon as an opening in your building no longer closes properly or is no longer secure: after a fire, break-in, vandalism, vehicle impact, storm or fallen tree. The faster we respond, the more secondary damage (theft, rain, frost, mold) is limited.
What materials do you use?
Depending on the situation, we generally use plywood or OSB panels fastened securely, sometimes metal panels for added security, along with protective tarps for roofs. The choice depends on how long the securing is expected to last and the level of protection required.
Does my insurance cover board-up?
In most cases, emergency securing costs related to a covered loss can be included under your home, commercial or rental insurance. Check the terms of your policy and contact your insurer promptly; we can document our work to make your claim easier.
How does an intervention work?
- Assessment: we inspect the site and the openings that need securing.
- Making safe: we remove hazardous items (broken glass, debris).
- Installation: we install the protective panels or tarps.
- Verification: we check that everything is solid and weatherproof.
- Documentation: we provide the information your insurer needs.
- Removal: once repairs are done, we take down the temporary protection.
Why not board up myself?
Handling broken glass, weakened structures or working at height carries real risk of injury. Poorly done securing can also give way to wind or a break-in and jeopardize your insurance file. Calling professionals protects both your property and your safety.
Is board-up permanent?
No, it is a temporary measure meant to protect the property until doors, windows or damaged elements are permanently repaired or replaced. We can remove it once the work is finished.
Do you work with businesses and rental buildings?
Yes. Owners, property managers, condo associations, merchants and organizations can call on us to quickly secure a building and limit the interruption of their operations.
