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

Montrose Glass provides boarding up in Wells and is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Whether you need emergency board up after a break-in, storm damage, or vandalism, the team can reach most locations in Wells within 30 to 90 minutes.

Wells is a small cathedral city in Somerset, known for its medieval centre, the moated Bishop’s Palace, and streets that have changed little in centuries. It sits at the foot of the Mendip Hills, drawing visitors year-round while remaining a working community for residents and local businesses alike.

When glass is broken or a window is compromised, acting fast matters. Our Window Glazing service covers the full range of glazing needs across Wells, but boarding up is often the critical first step: securing your property immediately so a proper repair can follow. Our vans carry boarding materials and pre-cut glass stock, meaning many jobs move directly from temporary protection to a permanent glazing repair in a single visit, without a second call-out.

What Does a Boarding Up Service in Wells Actually Cover

A professional boarding up service in Wells covers more than simply nailing a sheet of plywood over a broken window. When our team arrives, the first priority is a full on-site assessment of the damage: identifying how many openings are affected, the extent of any structural risk, and whether immediate re-glazing is possible or whether temporary boarding is the safer first step. This assessment shapes everything that follows.

For emergency boarding up in Wells, we use solid boarding materials fitted securely to the frame, designed to deter re-entry and protect the interior from weather overnight or until a permanent repair is completed. Where the damage is straightforward and the right glass is on the van, our glaziers can move straight to a permanent repair on the same visit. Where a specialist sealed unit or specific glass type is required, the boarding protects your property while the unit is ordered and a return visit is arranged as quickly as possible.

Our Emergency Glazing service runs alongside the boarding up service, so the transition from temporary glazing or board to a finished repair is handled by the same team with no handover delays. The window boarding service in Wells covers residential properties, commercial premises, and rental properties, with the same 30 to 90 minute response time regardless of the time of day or night.

Why Professional Boarding Up Matters More Than a DIY Fix

It is understandable to want to do something quickly after a break-in or storm, but temporary DIY boarding rarely provides adequate property security. A sheet of unsecured plywood or a boarded window that is not properly fixed to the frame can be removed easily, leaving the property vulnerable to a second entry. In Wells, as elsewhere, insurers increasingly require evidence of professional repair or boarding before processing a burglary repair or vandalism repair claim. An inadequate temporary fix can complicate that process significantly.

There is also the question of assessment. A glazier attending for a window boarding service in Wells will check not only the broken pane but the frame condition, the locking mechanism, and whether any adjacent glazing has been weakened. This matters for Window Repair and Replacement decisions: sometimes the right outcome is immediate re-glazing rather than boarding at all, and you need a qualified professional on site to make that call. Skipping the assessment to save time at the outset often costs more time and money later.

Professional boarding also provides a documented record of the initial damage and the remedial work carried out, which supports insurance claims and gives you a clear audit trail if disputes arise. Montrose Glass is ISO 9001 and ISO 45001 accredited, and all work is completed to a documented standard.

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

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.
