Services We Provide in East Farleigh ME15

We offer a full range of boarding up services tailored to East Farleigh’s residential focus, with options for the occasional commercial unit or farm-related property:

• Window boarding: 18mm exterior-grade plywood or 12mm OSB cut to fit, fixed with anti-tamper screws. Ideal for the tall sash windows common in village cottages—prevents further weather ingress or opportunistic entry.
• Door boarding: Secure damaged front or back doors, or install temporary steel doors for longer-term protection on vacant homes.
• Shopfront boarding: Though rare in East Farleigh, we handle any commercial glazing near the village centre or along the A20.
• Roof boarding: Weatherproofing for storm-damaged roofs or skylights, using reinforced panels on pitched village roofs.

All work uses non-destructive fixings where possible, with time-stamped photos before, during, and after for your records or insurance claims.

• Storm damage: Fallen branches through roofs near East Farleigh station.
• Fire damage: Post-blaze securing, coordinating with Kent Fire and Rescue if needed.

Property Types We Secure in East Farleigh ME15

East Farleigh’s housing stock—charming 17th-century cottages clustered around St. Mary’s Church, semi-detached family homes on Farleigh Lane, and occasional vacant farm properties—requires careful handling:

• Residential properties: Quick secures for homes exposed to the rural edges.
• Commercial properties: Pubs or small businesses near the bridge.
• Vacant properties: Steel security screens for empty lets between tenancies.

We assess on-site: if a frame’s too damaged, we’ll explain repairs versus temporary fixes upfront.
