Boarding Up in Solihull: 24/7 Emergency Cover from Montrose Glass

Solihull is a large metropolitan borough in the West Midlands, covering areas from the town centre and Shirley to Knowle, Dorridge, and Chelmsley Wood. It sits between Birmingham and Coventry and combines suburban residential streets with busy retail and commercial zones.

Montrose Glass provides boarding up in Solihull around the clock, every day of the year, including bank holidays. Whether your property has been targeted by a break-in, caught in a storm, or damaged through vandalism, our team is ready to attend within 30 to 90 minutes in most circumstances. As a family-run business with over 20 years of industry experience, we treat every call-out with the same urgency, whether it is a single smashed window on a residential property or a commercial frontage requiring full emergency board up.

Our vans are stocked with boarding materials and a range of glass that can be cut and fitted on site. This means many jobs do not stop at temporary glazing. Where the damage is straightforward, a permanent repair can often be completed in the same visit, saving you the inconvenience of a second appointment and keeping your property secure from the moment we arrive.

What Does a Boarding Up Service in Solihull Actually Cover?

A boarding up service in Solihull from Montrose Glass covers any situation where a window, door panel, or glazed opening has been damaged and needs to be made secure without delay. The most common reasons we attend are burglary repair after a forced entry, storm damage, and vandalism repair following deliberate damage to glass or frames. In each case, the immediate priority is to close the opening, protect the interior of your property, and prevent further damage or unauthorised access.

When we arrive, we carry out an on-site assessment to determine whether plywood boarding or an alternative temporary board is the right immediate solution, or whether a direct re-glaze is the better option. Plywood boarding is robust and effective as a short-term measure, but it is always intended as a temporary fix while a permanent repair is arranged. Where our stock glass is the right specification, we can cut and fit it on site during the same visit, moving your property straight from boarded to fully glazed. If a specialist sealed unit or custom size is needed, we will order it and arrange a return visit as quickly as possible. You can find out more about the full range of options available under our Window Glazing services in Solihull.

Our 24/7 availability and 30 to 90 minute response time applies across the whole of Solihull, including town centre properties, residential areas, and commercial premises. We do not charge a call-out fee, and our pricing is explained clearly before any work begins.

Why Professional Boarding Up Matters for Property Security in Solihull

It is understandable to reach for a temporary fix after a break-in or storm, but makeshift boarding using materials not designed for the purpose rarely provides adequate property security. A gap in coverage, an unsecured edge, or boarding that is not properly fixed to the frame can leave your property exposed, particularly overnight or over a weekend when follow-up help is harder to arrange. A professional assessment also covers the frame and surrounding structure, identifying damage that is not immediately visible but could affect whether a re-glaze holds correctly.

Insurance is another practical consideration. Many home and commercial property policies require that damage is made secure by a qualified contractor within a defined period. If temporary boarding is carried out without a professional record of the work, it can complicate a claim. Montrose Glass is ISO 9001 and ISO 45001 accredited and a member of the Guild of Master Craftsmen, which means the work we carry out meets the standards most insurers expect to see. We can provide documentation of the attendance and the work completed, which supports your claim rather than complicating it.

For properties that have experienced a break-in, there is also the question of whether boarding is the right solution at all. In some cases, moving directly to a permanent repair is faster, more cost-effective, and more secure. Our on-site assessment is designed to give you that information clearly so you can make the right decision for your property. If you need a full repair rather than temporary cover, our Window Repair and Replacement service in Solihull is available through the same team.

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

Superb service. The guys were out on time and the job was completed within an hour, including a full clean up. Would definitely use again.

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.
