Professional Board-Up Services Around Bunk Foss
After a fire, burglary, vehicle impact or storm, board-up is what protects the property until permanent repairs are made. An unsecured building can take on rain, get looted or be occupied by squatters within a single night.
Nearly every property policy requires reasonable steps to prevent additional loss. Damage caused by leaving a building open may be denied. Professional board-up, with photos and an invoice, shows you met that obligation.
There is a right way to do it. Good crews use 5/8 inch or thicker exterior plywood, screws or carriage bolts instead of nails, and 2x4 strongbacks across wide openings. Done well, it is hard to pry off and causes minimal damage to the frame.
Re Fire Me is a free referral service and does not perform board-up. We route Bunk Foss calls to independent, licensed and insured crews available 24 hours a day.

Board-Up Services Available in Bunk Foss
Every opening gets secured with the right method.
Window Board-Up
Plywood is cut to size and either screwed in place or through-bolted with interior strongbacks. It holds up against wind, rain and pry bars.
Door & Entry Securing
Forced or burned doors are covered or replaced with temporary plywood doors that lock, so you and your contractors can still get in.
Roof Tarping
Fire ventilation cuts, burn-through and storm damage are covered with reinforced tarps secured with batten strips screwed through the decking. It keeps water out until the roof is repaired.
Storefront & Commercial Board-Up
Large storefront glass, display windows and commercial entries are secured quickly so the business can protect inventory and limit downtime.
Temporary Fencing
Temporary chain-link fencing keeps people away from unsafe buildings and lowers liability.
Vacant Property Securing
For vacant properties, crews use heavier plywood and tamper-resistant fasteners to deter squatters and vandals.
What Separates a Solid Board-Up From a Quick Patch
The quick version is thin plywood nailed over the outside trim. It can blow off in a storm, can be pried off in seconds and leaves nail holes and split trim behind.
A professional board-up starts with exterior-grade plywood, usually 5/8 inch or 3/4 inch, cut to fit the opening. For ground-level windows and storefronts, crews often through-bolt with carriage bolts and interior strongbacks, leaving nothing to grip from outside. Upper windows are usually secured with structural screws.
Roofs get reinforced tarps, not lightweight hardware-store tarps. The tarp is wrapped over the ridge where possible and held with wood batten strips screwed through to the decking, so wind cannot get underneath.
Doors need access. Good crews build a hinged plywood door with a hasp and padlock so you, the adjuster and contractors can get in.
Board-up is usually the first line on your insurance claim, so documentation matters. Ask the crew to photograph every opening before and after it is secured and to provide an itemized invoice showing materials and labor. Keep those records with your claim paperwork. If the board-up stays in place for weeks while repairs are scheduled, check it after storms and call the contractor if anything loosens, because a failed board-up can lead to new damage.
Board-Up Calls We Take Day and Night
After a house fire
Firefighters break windows and force doors to fight the fire. Board-up secures every opening the same night and creates a lockable entry for the restoration crew and your adjuster.
After a burglary
A broken door or window after a break-in leaves the property vulnerable to a second visit. Crews secure the opening with through-bolted plywood until the glass or door can be replaced.
Vehicle into a building
A car through a storefront or home creates a large, irregular opening that may involve damaged framing. Crews secure the opening and, when needed, install temporary bracing until a contractor can assess the structure.
Storm and tree damage
High winds blow out windows and drop trees through roofs. Board-up and roof tarping keep rain out until permanent repairs can be scheduled.
Commercial glass after hours
A broken storefront or office window at night leaves inventory and equipment exposed. Crews secure the opening so the business can protect its contents and open the next day, then the glass company replaces it.

Common Board-Up Questions in Bunk Foss
How fast can a board-up crew get to my property in Bunk Foss?
Many independent crews near Bunk Foss can arrive within a few hours, including overnight. The dispatcher will give you an honest estimate based on availability.
Does insurance cover board-up services?
Board-up after a covered loss like a fire or storm is usually covered because it prevents further damage. Keep the invoice and photos for your claim.
Why do professionals use screws or bolts instead of nails?
Screws and through-bolts hold better, are harder to pry off from outside and cause less damage to window frames when the plywood is removed.
How long can board-up stay in place?
Well-installed exterior plywood can stay for weeks or months until repairs are done. Roof tarps may need checking after storms.
Is Re Fire Me the board-up company?
No. Re Fire Me is a free referral service. The work is done by independent, licensed and insured contractors who are responsible for it.
Can board-up services secure a property after a break-in, not just a fire?
Yes. Board-up crews secure properties after burglaries, vandalism, vehicle impacts, storms and fires. They also secure vacant buildings against trespassers.
