Why Property Security Matters After Emergencies
If your home or commercial building has been compromised by fire or other situations, you are still liable for what happens on your property whether it is livable or not. If vandals come on to your property, they can cause further damage to the structure or steal your personal belongings from inside the building. If someone comes into the property and gets injured, you may be held liable in the court system for their injuries even if you are not living on the property.

By utilizing our board up services after an emergency, you can prevent anyone from entering your home and causing additional problems.
