RARE Restoration's Fire Board-Up Process

RARE Restoration & Roofing follows a step-by-step process that ensures every job is done safely and effectively:

1

On-Site Evaluation

Our experts begin by conducting a full assessment of all entry points, including doors, windows, and any areas compromised by fire, smoke, or emergency response efforts.

2

Securement & Tarping

Using high-quality plywood and durable waterproof tarps, we seal off exposed areas to keep out rain, wind, and debris. This helps prevent unauthorized entry, vandalism, and potential liability risks.

3

Hazard Mitigation

Before securing the property, we clear away hazardous debris, assess fire-weakened structures, and take necessary precautions to prevent accidents.

4

Board-Up & Site Protection

We reinforce the building with secure boarding and temporary barriers to ensure that the structure is sealed off from further damage and any potential risks.

Types of Fire Board-Up Services

At RARE Restoration, we understand that every fire damage situation is different, which is why we customize our board-up services to fit your specific needs:

Precision Equipment for Complete Property Recovery

At RARE Restoration, we use advanced techniques to ensure your property is securely protected after a fire:

  • Window and Door Bracing: To prevent tampering or removal, we securely fasten plywood panels with internal bracing to add extra stability to vulnerable entry points.
  • Roof Tarping: Using heavy-duty industrial tarps, we seal off roofs to prevent leaks and protect the structure from exposure to the elements.
  • Smoke & Heat Barrier Setup: We deploy temporary barriers to contain lingering smoke or soot and prevent its spread.
  • Pressure-Sealed Closures: For high-value properties or areas requiring additional security, we use pressure-sealed boards for enhanced protection against environmental factors and unauthorized entry.

Tips to Minimize Damage Before and After a Fire

While we recommend professional services for safety, here are some useful DIY tips:

  • Use Exterior Grade Plywood: For temporary board-up, use 5/8" or thicker exterior plywood, securely fastened from the inside. This helps deter break-ins and withstands high wind or rain.
  • Seal Roof Openings Quickly: Use waterproof tarps and roofing nails to prevent water intrusion. Always use caution and avoid walking on fire-damaged roofs.
  • Remove Fire Debris Carefully: Fire debris may contain toxic chemicals. Wear gloves and a mask, and use proper disposal techniques to avoid health hazards.
  • Notify Your Insurance Immediately: Start your claim early and document all damage before and after board-up. Take photos and save receipts to help expedite the process.
  • Secure Utilities: Shut off water, gas, and electricity until the property is inspected by professionals. This helps prevent further disasters such as flooding or gas leaks.
