Emergency Board Up

Our Board up team is always ready to help!

SERVPRO of Chicago Heights/Crete/Beecher is a 24/7 business helping homeowners and business owners with emergencies including board up.  When a fire resulted in many broken windows and doors at this apartment building, our team was called in to help.

Our board up team strives to have a quick response time, knowing that after a fire, it is very important to secure the building as fast as we can.

Many people wonder why a building must be boarded up after a fire.  The reasons are mostly safety.  Most municipalities will require that a building be secured to avoid squatting, looting, and vandalism.  Additionally, after a fire, buildings are unstable and dangerous so keeping the public out is very important.

As an added part of our board up service, our technicians will also winterize a building as the tempatures start to drop to avoid further damage to the property such as pipe brakes.

At SERVPRO of Chicago Heights/Crete/Beecher we do our best to mitigate future issues on a property after an emergency.  For more information please reach out to our 24/7 office line at 708-672-0077.
