Boarding Up Kingswood ME17

If you’ve had a break-in, storm damage, or vandalism in Kingswood (ME17), you need reliable boarding up services in Maidstone that understand the area’s quiet lanes and scattered properties. We’re local specialists covering all of ME17, including Kingswood village, responding 24/7 to secure windows, doors, roofs, and shopfronts. Call 01622 580 086 now—day or night—for prompt assistance without fixed arrival promises, as rural roads like the B2163 Sutton Road can affect journeys.

Kingswood sits just south of Maidstone, a peaceful parish with a mix of period cottages along narrow lanes, semi-detached homes from the mid-20th century, and larger detached houses set back from roads like Kingswood Road. Whether it’s a family home near the Plough Inn pub or a property edging the farmland towards Boughton Monchelsea, we know the local challenges: gated drives, uneven access, and the need for discreet, weatherproof securing in this semi-rural spot. Our team uses 18mm exterior-grade plywood for most openings, with anti-tamper fixings to deter further issues—essential when properties might stand empty overnight.

Services We Provide in Kingswood ME17

We handle all standard boarding up needs tailored to Kingswood’s property mix, from single windows to full shopfronts. Here’s what we offer:

Window boarding: For smashed panes or cracked glass in homes along quiet lanes—precise cuts to fit awkward frames, secured without further damage where possible.
Door boarding: Temporary plywood or temporary steel doors for forced entries, ideal for back doors in exposed rural gardens.
Shopfront boarding: Larger panels for the few commercial units near the village edges, using 18mm plywood with heavy-duty fixings.
Roof boarding: Securing skylights or damaged sections after storms, with tarpaulin overlays for immediate weatherproofing on pitched roofs common here.

Each job includes time-stamped photos before and after, plus an itemised statement for your records or insurer.

A Real Kingswood Scenario: Last winter, a homeowner on a secluded lane off Kingswood Road returned to find their rear kitchen window smashed after a burglary. With the house empty for the weekend and rain forecast, they called us out of hours. We fitted 12mm OSB internally to avoid frame damage, added anti-tamper screws, and left full photos and an invoice. The property was secure for their insurer’s inspection the next day—no further weather ingress.
