An open window, a missing door, or exposed roofing after a fire is an invitation for weather damage, theft, and liability, all before the sun goes down. Fire Damage Laser Cleaning's Board Up Services crews respond fast specifically to close that window.
We board windows and doors with weather-rated plywood, tarp compromised roofing sections, and where needed set up temporary fencing to keep the property secure until repairs begin from further exposure.
Call +1-866-484-1409 Now
A dispatcher answers +1-866-484-1409 around the clock, because fires don't wait for business hours.
Our tarping and board-up materials are rated to withstand real weather, not just look secure temporarily.
Local staging is why our Shafer response times consistently beat crews driving in from out of the area.
Emergency board-up is priced the same regardless of the hour you call.
A detail Shafer homeowners don't always think about is that a poorly secured board-up can actually violate local code or void certain insurance provisions if it's not installed to a minimum standard — plywood alone, loosely nailed, often doesn't meet that bar.
Shafer, MN municipalities in many areas have specific requirements for temporary securing of a fire-damaged structure, including minimum plywood thickness and fastening standards.
We've been called out to re-secure properties where a previous board-up attempt, done by a well-meaning family member, didn't hold through the first storm — which is the exact scenario proper materials and fastening are meant to prevent.
A typical Board Up Services visit, from arrival to a fully secured property, usually wraps within two hours for Shafer calls, which is fast enough to beat an incoming storm in most cases.
Every open window and door gets boarded with material sized and secured to actually hold, not just cover the gap.
We tarp exposed roofing immediately to stop water intrusion into the attic and living space below.
For larger losses, we install temporary fencing to control site access and reduce liability exposure.
An exposed fire-damaged property is a target; our board-up specifically closes off easy entry points.
We flag any opening that looks like it's tied to a bigger structural issue rather than just boarding over it.
Our +1-866-484-1409 line is staffed 24/7 specifically for this kind of time-sensitive call.
Materials come pre-loaded on the response vehicle so there's no delay picking up supplies en route.
Pricing for the full Board Up Services scope is confirmed on-site, in minutes, not over a callback.
The property isn't left until every window, door, and roof opening is properly secured.

Our emergency Board Up Services crews cover Shafer and extend across Shafer, MN, with materials staged locally for immediate dispatch.
