Importance Of Emergency Board Up Services

Rachael Eslao • March 18, 2021

Why do you need an emergency board up service in Minneapolis

The first thing you might think of when thinking about natural disaster mitigation is getting tree limbs out of the way or dealing with excess water. The last thing on your mind is likely to be board-up services. In the event of an accident involving a tree, car, or window damage, you’ll need board-up services immediately to prevent further damage. If you’ve never had a problem at your home or business, you may not know what board-up services are, much less when or why you’d need them. To give you a better understanding, we’ve assembled some information about board-up services.

What is a Board Service? 
Window panels are one of the most vulnerable areas of a home or business. Put simply, they break much easier than doors or walls. If you cannot repair a window immediately, an emergency board-up service can help protect your home or business while you wait for it to be fixed or replaced. Sometimes, in a natural disaster, like a storm, many people are in the same situation: unable to replace a window in a time of crisis. Board-up services may be the best solution since repair services may not be immediately available.

When do you need a Board Service? 
Storm Damage: Storms can be quite powerful, and can cause some major damage to your building. 
Prevention: Use of board-up services before a big storm to prevent breakage of windows can help to eliminate the need for window replacement.
Property Vacancy: A vacant building, such as one that’s unoccupied, abandoned, or in the process of redevelopment, is sometimes vandalized. Board-up services help keep the property safe from further damage.
Fire: The heat from a fire can cause windows to break. Firefighters might also break windows to gain access to a building and extinguish the blaze.
Riots: Board-up services are a good prevention to help stop your building from being damaged in an uproar of the public. 

Are Board Services worth the money?
Keep your insurance coverage: Many premium insurance policies require that you stop further damage from occurring once your home is damaged. Your insurer could deny a claim if your windows have been broken by hail and you have not boarded them up.
Prevents further damage and vandalism: Securing your home or business will help prevent further issues if you’ve experienced a fire or other catastrophe, as well as deters vandalism, theft, and potential liability issues.

If and when you have determined that you require board-up services, call Roof Tarp & Board up of Minneapolis and get the situation under control right away!
