Boarding up and glazing in Chelmsford, day or night

Broken glass in Chelmsford is dealt with at any hour. We board up windows, doors and shopfronts across the CM1 postcode and replace the glass, and the phone is answered day and night, including weekends and bank holidays.

A break-in, an accident or vandalism is behind most of the calls we take in Chelmsford. With emergency boarding up, timber boards are cut on site and fixed over the opening so the building can be locked. Emergency glazing follows, either on that visit if the glass can be cut to fit or on a return visit if it is made to size.

Our work in Chelmsford covers houses, flats, shops and commercial buildings. At a home that tends to mean window boarding, door boarding or replacing a double glazed unit. At a shop it means shopfront boarding followed by new shopfront glass.

If you have been burgled in CM1, burglary repairs cover the door, frame, lock and glass in a single job. For an empty house or unit in Chelmsford, vacant property boarding is fitted to stay up for longer.
