Common questions
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.
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.
How is shop boarding up priced in Leicestershire?
Pricing is the same across East Midlands: 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.
Do you offer shop boarding up across all of Leicestershire?
Yes. We cover Leicestershire in full, including Leicester, Coalville, Melton Mowbray and Hinckley, for both urgent and planned work.
