Luton ME4 sits in the heart of Chatham’s residential zones, with its mix of 1930s semis, post-war terraces, and newer flats around areas like Capstone Hill and the Luton Recreation Ground. We know the local roads like the back of our hand—from navigating the tight turns on Matson Road during rush hour to accessing properties backing onto the wooded areas near Walderslade Road. When vandalism hits a window on a quiet evening or storm debris crashes through a roof near Chatham Railway Station, we’re equipped to board up fast and weatherproof effectively.
Services We Provide in Luton ME4
We offer a full range of boarding up services tailored to Luton’s property mix, from family homes to small retail spots along the local parade on Luton Road.
- Window boarding: Using 18mm exterior-grade plywood for larger openings or 12mm OSB for smaller ones, secured with anti-tamper fixings. Ideal for cracked panes in the area’s bay-fronted semis.
- Door boarding: Non-destructive methods where possible, or temporary steel doors for longer-term security on forced entries.
- Shopfront boarding: Heavy-duty panels for commercial glazing, common in Luton’s few high-street style units near the recreation ground.
- Roof boarding: Securing skylights or damaged sections with specialist access gear, protecting against Kent’s frequent rain.
Each job uses materials chosen for durability in our damp climate, with fixings that hold against wind gusts off the Medway.
Emergency Situations We Handle in Luton
Luton’s position between urban Chatham and the open spaces of Capstone makes it prone to certain issues—vandalism from youths near the park, storm damage from exposed hilltop homes, or burglaries targeting ground-floor flats.
- Burglary repairs: Secure the entry point immediately to prevent repeat visits, providing time-stamped photos for your police reference and insurer.
- Vandalism repair: Quick boarding for smashed glass, often seen on street-facing windows here.
- Storm damage: Boarding exposed openings after fallen branches or high winds, a regular occurrence near the A229.
- Fire damage: Post-fire securing in coordination with the fire service—we focus on the structure, not cleanup.
- Flood damage: Ventilation-aware boarding for swollen frames, especially after heavy downpours in low-lying spots near the railway.
No matter the situation, we prioritise weatherproofing and security. Keep your crime reference number handy, and take safe photos beforehand if you can.
