Boarding up your commercial property helps prevent thieves and vandals from entering.  Unfortunately, there are many people who try to profit off a disaster.  Seeing an easy opening into a building through broken windows or doors is simply an invitation for these individuals.  Boarding up any entrances while your property is vacant will help keep looters away until repairs completed.

Boarding up your commercial property guards against the weather causing more damage.  If open areas of your building are hit by a rainstorm or intense winds, you will be forced to contend with more than just fire damage. Covering these openings with plywood helps to eliminate any chance of additional damage.  Preventing additional damage can save you money and time.
