Vacant property security for empty homes and commercial units
We secure empty homes, void units and vacant commercial premises across London and the South East. That includes shops, offices, restaurants and warehouses.
We take instructions from landlords, agents and asset managers responsible for vacant and void properties.
Call about one exposed building or set out the requirements for several vacant units.
If the damage follows a burglary, we make the property secure first. We then handle the permanent repairs through our burglary damage repairs service.
We board smashed windows, damaged doors and broken shopfronts. After forced entry, we also secure damaged doors, frames and locks.
We bring the boarding stock and fixings with us.
Send the postcode when you call. We work out the arrival time from the postcode and confirm the coverage on that call.
What we secure at a vacant property
Tell us about each damaged window, door or shopfront that needs securing when you call.
We can deal with:
- smashed or exposed windows
- entrance doors and frames damaged by forced entry
- rear and side access doors
- door locks damaged by forced entry
- broken glass and frames at vacant shopfronts
- windows, doors and shopfronts that need boarding after a break-in
Our emergency boarding up service covers windows, doors and shopfronts. It is a standalone make-safe that leaves the property secure.
Boarding makes the property safe and secure first. Permanent repairs follow for the damaged glass, door, frame or lock.
After a break-in, contact the police and get a crime reference number. Keep it for the insurance claim.
Work around trading hours
For a shop or other trading premises, we coordinate the work around trading hours. Our commercial property response page explains the wider service for shops, offices, restaurants and warehouses.
We attend at any hour. If a door has been forced, we can secure the door, frame and locks through our emergency door repair service.
Records for securing and repair visits
For each securing or repair visit, give us the postcode and the reference used in your own records.
Each commercial account gets an itemised invoice and documents for every visit. This gives the owner, agent or asset manager a clear record against the correct property.
If the work is part of an insurance claim, we provide an itemised invoice with before and after photographs to support your paperwork.
You can send photographs by WhatsApp before you call. Include the property postcode and show the window, door or shopfront that needs securing.
A clear process for each vacant unit
Start with a phone call if the property needs attention now. Tell us the postcode and what needs securing.
We calculate the arrival time from the postcode. We also give you a clear, free quote on the call before any work starts.
For planned or repeat work, use the commercial accounts enquiry. Include the number of properties, their postcodes, invoicing details and the documentation needed per visit.
We provide physical boarding and securing for vacant and void properties in London and the South East. Call 020 4538 1390 if a property needs securing now, or use the commercial accounts enquiry for planned or repeat work.
