Shop boarding up in Northumberland

Shop boarding up is one of the most requested repairs we carry out in Northumberland. 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. Coverage includes Morpeth, Blyth, Hexham and Cramlington.

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.

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 Northumberland?

Pricing is the same across North 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.

Can I get shop boarding up out of hours in Northumberland?

Emergency work to make premises safe is available out of hours. Non-urgent repairs are booked around your trading hours.
