Boarding up in Shaw, done fast and done properly
An open window at night is an invitation, and Shaw's stone mill-town terraces know it. One call gets it sealed.
We make safe first and talk glass second. Boards go on tonight, the replacement unit gets built on our own bench, and the same firm comes back to glaze. One invoice, start to finish. The van leaves Trafford Park within minutes of your call.
Ask us about Crompton and we can tell you the common glass sizes from memory. That's what years of local call-outs do.

Shaw's homes, and what they need
The stock around Crompton and High Crompton is mostly stone mill-town terraces.
Different frames fail in different ways. Bays need careful boarding, old sashes hide odd sizes, and uPVC needs the right unit spec. We've sorted all of them in Shaw. The same vans cover Royton (40 to 65 minutes) and Oldham (40 to 65 minutes).

Before & after






Boarding questions from Shaw, answered
How fast can you board up a property in Shaw?
Usually 45 to 70 minutes from our Trafford Park base via the M60 and A663, any hour. The van carries OSB and plywood, so most Shaw properties are secured on the first visit.
How is the boarding fixed? Will it damage my frames?
Screw-fixed boards on timber, secure external fixings on uPVC and aluminium, always chosen to avoid permanent damage. When the new glass goes in, the fixing points are made good.
How long can boarding stay up?
Boarding is weatherproof and secure for weeks if needed. Most Shaw customers have us back within days though. We build replacement units ourselves, so the permanent fix usually lands within 24 to 48 hours.
Can you board a shopfront in Shaw overnight?
Yes. We board large commercial frontages across Shaw, including Crompton, High Crompton and Shaw Side. We can fit toughened replacement glass afterwards, cut in our own workshop.

Boarding Up near Shaw
Made in Trafford Park, fitted everywhere
Every Shaw job is backed by our own workshop at 7 Trafford Moss Road, Trafford Park. That is where we cut glass, build sealed units and fabricate uPVC and aluminium frames.
It keeps prices fixed and turnaround short. Odd sizes are rebuilt in 24 to 48 hours instead of weeks. From the workshop gate to Shaw is usually 45 to 70 minutes via the M60 and A663.
