Securing a Burned Property Before Morning
To fight a fire, crews break windows to vent heat and smoke, force doors, and often cut holes in the roof. That is the right call to save the house, but it leaves the structure open to rain, animals and anyone walking by. 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.

Crews That Answer at Night
Most board-up calls come in after dark. We route your call to an independent crew near Flora Vista that can respond that night.
Stocked Trucks, Ready to Go
A board-up truck carries sheet goods, bolts, tarps, battens and work lights, so the job can finish in one trip.
Upfront Pricing for Emergency Work
You get the price in writing, usually per opening and per tarp, before work starts. Keep the invoice for your claim.
Licensed and Insured Independent Crews
Working at night on a burned structure is risky. Ask for proof of liability and workers compensation insurance.
Securing a Fire-Damaged Property
Securing a property goes beyond plywood on windows.
Window and Door Board-Up
Openings are sealed with plywood or OSB, attached in a way that spares the frames. A lockable access door can be installed.
Roof Tarping and Battening
Roof holes are tarped and battened down so wind and rain cannot get under them.
Wall Breach Cover
Holes burned or cut through exterior walls are framed and sheathed temporarily.
Temporary Fencing and Site Security
For badly damaged properties, temporary fencing keeps people out and limits liability.
Water Pump-Out and Utility Safety
Crews can pump standing water and confirm utilities are safely shut off.

Call +1-866-475-2701 Right NowWhat Flora Vista Callers Say About Emergency Fire Board Up
I called around 1:30 a.m., right after the trucks pulled out. By sunrise, every window was covered and the roof was tarped. It rained the next afternoon.
The plywood was bolted from inside, which saved the frames. Small thing, but it saved us money later.
Our rental was vacant after the fire and people were already poking around. Fencing and a lockable door ended that.
Board-Up Questions
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. Board-up protects against further damage and theft.
Does insurance pay for emergency board-up?
Emergency board-up after a covered fire is normally reimbursed through the claim. Keep the invoice and photos.
How quickly can a board-up crew arrive?
Response depends on the time and 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?
Bolting through with strongbacks from inside keeps frames in good shape. Ask how they plan to attach it.
Can you tarp a roof at night?
Often, yes, if it is safe. They work with lights and harnesses, though an unstable roof may need to wait for daylight.
How long can boards stay up?
Plywood can remain for the duration of repairs. Inspect tarps after heavy wind or rain.
