Shop boarding up in Cambridgeshire

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 Cambridgeshire — Cambridge, Peterborough, Huntingdon and Ely among them.

Common questions

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.

Will boarding damage my shopfront frame?

Fixings go into the frame or the reveal, so small holes are unavoidable. We place them where they can be filled or hidden behind beads when the frontage is reglazed.

What should I do before the engineer arrives?

Keep people clear of broken glass, do not force a jammed door or shutter, and take photos if it is safe to do so. If you can, note any make or model shown on the door, closer or shutter motor.

Do you offer shop boarding up across all of Cambridgeshire?

Yes. We cover Cambridgeshire in full, including Cambridge, Peterborough, Huntingdon and Ely, for both urgent and planned work.
