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.
Can I get shop boarding up out of hours in Inverclyde?
Emergency work to make premises safe is available out of hours. Non-urgent repairs are booked around your trading hours.
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.
