Board-up and barricading on a vacant property.
An open door or a broken window is an invitation. Boarding is how a vacant building stops being a place to sleep, dump or set a fire, and it is one of the first things an Order to Abate asks for.
We board anything from a single window to a whole building, homes and commercial storefronts alike, and leave one secured entry with a heavy-duty combination padlock.
- Exterior grade plywood on doors and windows
- Single openings to complete buildings
- Homes, storefronts and commercial buildings
- A padlocked access door for inspectors and agents
- Emergency board-up after fire, crashes or break-ins
- Photos of every boarded opening
The city can set how a vacant building must be barricaded. Check your order for the standard it lists, and we will board to it.
Four steps, one crew.
Most Orders to Abate need more than one of these services. We do them in the same visit wherever we can, so the property is never left half secured.
