Shop boarding up in Berkshire

Shop boarding up is fitting solid sheet material — usually exterior plywood or OSB — over a broken window or door so the premises is weatherproof and secure. Our engineers carry out this work for shops and commercial premises across Berkshire — Reading, Slough, Newbury and Windsor among them.

Common questions

How long can a shop stay boarded up?

Boarding is designed to be temporary. It will keep a shop secure for weeks if needed, but most councils and landlords expect the frontage to be reglazed promptly, and boarded frontages tend to attract graffiti.

Can I still open while the shop is boarded?

Often, yes. If the door itself is sound, we board only the broken panes so customers can still get in.

Do you offer shop boarding up across all of Berkshire?

Yes. We cover Berkshire in full, including Reading, Slough, Newbury and Windsor, for both urgent and planned work.

How is shop boarding up priced in Berkshire?

Pricing is the same across South East: a guide range up front and a fixed written price once the job has been measured. There is no extra charge for being outside a city centre.
