The Flames Are Gone, but the House Is Wide Open
To fight a fire, crews break windows to vent heat and smoke, force doors, and often cut holes in the roof. It saves the house, but it leaves the property exposed to weather, wildlife and trespassers. A vacant, burned house is a target for theft and vandalism within hours.
A board-up crew closes every opening with plywood or OSB, usually fastened from the inside with carriage bolts and strongbacks so the frames are not damaged. Roof cuts get tarped and battened. Most insurance policies require you to take reasonable steps to prevent further damage, and board-up is usually the first one.

Questions About Emergency Fire Board Up in Palmetto Estates, FL
Why do I need a board-up after the fire department leaves?
Fire crews vent the structure by breaking windows and cutting the roof, which leaves it exposed. Boarding up prevents more damage and break-ins.
Does insurance pay for emergency board-up?
Most homeowners policies cover reasonable emergency measures to prevent further damage after a covered fire. Keep the invoice and photos.
How quickly can a board-up crew arrive?
Arrival time depends on the hour and your location, but independent crews in the network are set up for same-night response. Dispatch can give you an estimate on the call.
Will a board-up damage my window frames?
Good crews fasten plywood with carriage bolts and strongbacks from the inside to protect frames. Ask the crew how they will attach the boards.
Can you tarp a roof at night?
Often, yes, if it is safe. Crews use lighting and fall protection, but they may wait for daylight if the roof is unstable.
How long can boards stay up?
Boards can stay in place for weeks or months while the claim and repairs move forward. Inspect tarps after heavy wind or rain.
