What Does a Boarding Up Service in Exeter Involve?

When you contact Montrose Glass for emergency boarding up in Exeter, the first priority is securing your property against further intrusion, weather, or damage. Our technician will assess the affected window, door, or opening on arrival and determine the safest and most effective way to make the property secure. We use robust plywood boarding fixed correctly to the surrounding frame, not simply propped or taped into place, which means the temporary fix holds until a permanent repair is completed.

The service covers a wide range of situations: burglary repair after a break-in, vandalism repair where glass has been deliberately broken, and storm-damaged frames or panels that have failed overnight. In many of these cases, our vans are already stocked with the glass needed to cut and fit a permanent replacement on the same visit. Where the original unit is a specialist double-glazed sealed unit or a shaped piece that requires ordering, we will board the opening securely and arrange a return visit to fit the permanent glazing as quickly as possible.

Temporary glazing is also available as a step between plywood boarding and the final repair, particularly for commercial premises where appearance or ventilation matters. Our team will talk through the options with you on site so you can make an informed decision about the right approach for your property. The transition from emergency board up to full Window Repair and Replacement is handled by the same team, keeping the process straightforward from start to finish.

Why Professional Boarding Up Matters for Exeter Properties

A broken window or forced door leaves your property exposed not just to opportunistic re-entry but also to weather damage that can escalate quickly. Temporary or DIY window boarding, using materials that are not properly fixed or sized, often fails to meet the standard required by your buildings or contents insurer. Many insurance policies require evidence that reasonable steps were taken to secure the property promptly after damage, and a professional boarding up service provides a clear record of attendance, materials used, and the condition of the opening.

There is also a practical assessment element that DIY boarding misses entirely. A trained glazier can identify whether the frame itself has been damaged, whether the locking mechanism has been compromised, and whether the most appropriate next step is boarding, temporary glazing, or an immediate permanent repair. Getting that assessment right at the first visit avoids unnecessary return trips and ensures property security is not left at risk longer than it needs to be. For anything requiring urgent attention beyond boarding, our Emergency Glazing service in Exeter is available as part of the same call-out.

Montrose Glass are experts in quick and effective window boarding up services in Exeter to keep your business secure while you consider your repair options.

Russell Haselhurst
We used Montrose Glass for a construction project in London recently. They were fantastic. Service was great, as was the workmanship. The 2 glaziers are a credit to the company. Also, they turned up and carried out the works during heavy snowfall without complaint. We would definitely recommend them.

I needed to get some work done for quite a while on my house, but kept putting it off - after a couple of calls to Montrose Glass I felt comfortable discussing it and they made it so easy and simple that I\'ve decided to get it all sorted. Great service and I have already got them quoting my mums house and will have no worries referring them on in the future.

Yes, Montrose Glass covers the whole of Exeter and the surrounding areas, including residential streets, commercial premises, and rural properties on the outskirts of the city. The service is available 24/7, 365 days a year, and is backed by nationwide UK coverage, so no area is out of reach.

In most circumstances, Montrose Glass can reach your Exeter address within 30 to 90 minutes of your call. The service operates 24 hours a day, every day of the year, including bank holidays, so response times are not affected by the time of day or day of the week.

There is no call-out fee for attending your property in Exeter. The on-site assessment is free, and you will be given a clear price for any work before it begins. You are under no obligation to proceed until you are happy with the quote.

In many cases, yes. Montrose Glass vans are stocked with glass that can be cut and fitted on site, so if the damage is straightforward a permanent repair can often be completed in the same visit as the initial call-out in Exeter. Where a specialist unit is required, it will be ordered and a return visit arranged as quickly as possible so your property is not left unsecured for longer than necessary.

Professional boarding up ensures the opening is secured to a standard that satisfies most insurance policy requirements and provides a written record of attendance that you can submit to your insurer. A qualified glazier will also assess whether the frame or locking mechanism has been compromised, which a temporary DIY fix would not address. Leaving those issues unresolved can create ongoing property security risks and may complicate an insurance claim.
