Portage Ave emergency window boarding — done right for our winters

Broken window from weather, a break-in or an accident? We board up the opening fast to secure and weatherproof your home, then measure for the glass or replacement.

Every opening measured on-site

Full air-seal on every unit

Written frame + sealed-glass warranty

Secure the opening fast

A broken window is a security and weather problem at the same time — an open pane invites intruders and, in a Portage Ave winter, lets the cold pour in and threatens frozen pipes and a huge heat loss within hours. We board it up quickly and solidly to keep your home safe, dry and warm while the permanent fix is arranged. Getting the opening secured fast is the whole point of an emergency board-up.

We cut and fasten a proper board panel to the opening so it actually holds — not a taped-up sheet — and weatherproof the edges so wind and snow stay out.

Then we measure for the matching replacement glass or, if the frame is damaged, for a full window, and give you the quote before any further work.

Boarded now, fixed right after

Board-up is only the first step: we follow up promptly with the replacement glass or window so your home is back to normal fast, not left boarded for weeks. We keep you posted on timing and get the permanent unit ordered right away.

Where a break involves a break-in or storm damage, we can provide clear documentation of the damage and the repair to support an insurance claim, which often makes the process smoother and faster for you.

Emergency Glass Boarding questions answered

Response speed, permanent glass and insurance for board-ups.

How fast can you board up a broken window?

We treat board-ups as urgent and prioritize them, because a broken window in Portage Ave is a security and freezing risk that gets worse by the hour. Our goal is to get the opening secured and weatherproofed as quickly as we can so your home is safe, warm and dry the same day. The exact response depends on the time and our current schedule, but emergency board-up jumps ahead of routine measures. Once it is boarded, the permanent glass or window is ordered and installed as soon as it is ready.

Do you do the glass replacement too?

Yes — the board-up is only step one. After the opening is secured, we measure the exact size and glass type, order the matching sealed unit or a full replacement window if the frame is damaged, and install it once it arrives. That way you deal with one crew for the whole event, from securing the home to finishing the permanent repair, rather than chasing a separate glazier. We give you the price for the permanent fix up front so there are no surprises after the emergency is handled.

Can this help with an insurance claim?

Often, yes. We can provide clear documentation of the damage and the repair — a description, the scope and the quote — which is exactly what insurers ask for on a broken-window or break-in claim, and it can make your claim faster and smoother. We are not the insurer and cannot approve a claim, but the paperwork we provide supports it. If a break-in or storm is involved, secure the home first with the board-up, photograph the damage, and we will supply the documentation to go with your claim.

Do you board up at night or on weekends?

We prioritize emergency board-ups because an open window is a security and freezing risk; we aim to secure it as fast as possible whenever it happens.

Is the board-up a separate cost from the glass?

Yes — the emergency board-up is quoted separately from the permanent glass, and we give you both prices up front so there are no surprises.

A branch went through our window in a storm. They boarded it up the same day and had the new glass in within days. Lifesaver in winter.
