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. 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.
Board-up crews cover openings with plywood or OSB, often bolted through from inside with strongbacks to protect the frames. 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.

Securing a property goes beyond plywood on windows.
Window and Door Board-Up

Call +1-866-475-2701 Right NowReal Board-Up Experiences
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.
They bolted the plywood from inside, so the window frames were not wrecked. Small thing, but it saved us money later.
People were snooping around our vacant rental the morning after. 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. Boarding up prevents more damage and break-ins.
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?
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?
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. Crews use lighting and fall protection, but they may wait for daylight if the roof is unstable.
How long can boards stay up?
Plywood can remain for the duration of repairs. Inspect tarps after heavy wind or rain.
