Cricket Wireless.... Did the Crickets Chirp?

Sarah Strader

Did the cricket chirp? Well they certainly did at 3:30 a.m.! We work hard for our clients. Not many people hear the phone ring at 3 a.m.  We are always ready to go when "the call" comes in from Long Beach Police Department. This Wireless Store had a broken front door, so we board it up in a way that allows them to keep the store locked. This allows the store to coordinated with there insurance and a glass company to get the repairs completed. Sometimes the repair is very quick, occasionally this takes a day or two. They can still service their clients in the meantime.

Long Beach -Vs- Everyone Else (clothing store)

Sarah Strader

When a Long Beach clothing store gets a broken window, we are on our way - SLS to the rescue! Once again, even a small broken widow can leave a business owner feeling vunerable and exposed. Luckily, we understand how important it is to secure even the small windows and doors. 

Now the business owner can open and continue with business as usual while they schedule to have the glass replaced. 

From one small business to another.

3AM in Long Beach are you awake?

Sarah Strader

At 3 a.m. in Long Beach, are you awake? We sure are! When someone breaks a window, in the wee hours in of the morning it needed to be boarded up. The reasons why we board things up are vast. To prevent the culprit form returning after everyone has cleared out, to secure the property, to prevent further damage, or to give the owner piece of mind. We secured this window to not cause further damage to the frame. This way the property owner can just have the glass replaced. We do our best to prevent further repairs, such as replacing the whole window frame. We make sure that it is secure and not easy to regain entry to the property until repairs can be scheduled.

We are honored to work along side our men and women of service that keep our cities safe.

911 CALL - Broken Glass

Sarah Strader

Due to the nature of our business, it is 24/7/365, each emergency is different. Sometimes it is just a broken door on a store front. Our main goal is the secure the business until the repairs can be completed. We help ensure they can still get in and out until they can have the glass repaired. We also clean up any broken glass on the exterior of the building.

911 Fire

Sarah Strader

Long Beach Fire Department stays busy and so do we. When the fire department has completed their rigorous inspection to ensure all smolders are completely extqinshed. We can now begin to close up the property. A good bit of the time we are doing this in the evening, late night, and wee morning hours. We are fully equipped with lights, head lamps and backup generators. We work until the site is secure. 

 

Stay safe.  

Late Night Nails & Eats

Sarah Strader

Occasionally when we get a emergency call, and the location is a business complex for several shops the damages can spill over from one business to another. This site visit showed that two  business had broken glass on entry doors. As we usually do, we secure the doors, so that repairs can be scheduled. We clean up the exterior of the site to be free and clear of broken glass and debris related to the break in. 

Fence Installation

Sarah Strader

When we need to add an extra layer of protection to a property we get requests to add chain link fence.  We are happy to oblige our clients when they need additional security. 

Fire in Long Beach, CA

Sarah Strader

When a fire hits, it can be quite shocking. Luckily, the Long Beach Fire Department amazing in such emergencies. When we get "the call" from Long Beach Fire Department, we imagine what you must be going through. We feel lucky to be on call for them. We arrive ready to go to work. We  have a fully loaded truck at all times. We have outfitted our trucks to be ready with a variety of tools and equipment. Our motto is to be ready to go at all times. 

We board up windows, doors, and garages to secure the property from any further damage. We have even covered roofs with plywood and rebuild door frames. Our goal is to board up and secure the property so that you can take the next steps in rebuilding. 

Stay Safe! 

When A Car Hits A Building...

Sarah Strader

When a car hits a building, we typically get a call. Sadly, we know this situation a little too well. It does make us the right people for the job.  This allows the property owner to be secure until the can be made. When we show up, the car is not always on the site it has usually been towed off. After we assess the site needs, we proceed with building a reenforced structure. This is additional structure allows us to cover the hole. 

Once we have built the structure we begin covering the hole and clean off any debris and broken materials. 

Another job well done.

Long Beach Fire Department - Apartment Above A Convent Store

Sarah Strader

We are very grateful to work along side our first responder men and women in the different cities where we perform work. This apartment caught on fire and due to the quick response time for the fire department, only this unit caught the brunt of the fire. Although the surrounding units did have some damage, the fire was contained to this uint. Lucky, it did not even travel south to the convince store below. All of the windows needed to be secure from the inside of the apartment, after the fire department ensured the fire and any smoldering remains were out. 

Convince or Not?

Sarah Strader

When a convenient store gets a broken window, it is not a convenient for the owner. When we are called out to board up and secure store fronts we assess the on site needs and since we show up with a fully loaded truck, we are equipped for any size job. This specific project required us to build up some framing to attach and secure our wood. We also clean up all the broken glass and remove the debris and secure the property.  We alway take before and after photos to document our process and work. 

Anthony Roberts Salon - Long Beach

Sarah Strader

When a full storefront window is broken, we rebuild the structure from the inside of the storefront. We take the time to build a proper frame to secure the entire storefront, this ensures the property being secured with the smallest inconvenience to the store owner. Sometimes it can take them a few days to schedule a glass company to come out and replace the broken windows. In the meantime they can continue business with the smallest amount of downtime. 

Garage Fire- Long Beach (When Life Happens)

Sarah Strader

Accidents happen and we are On-Call with Long Beach Fire Department to handle such events. When life happens and you need to focus on moving forward we are always available for our clients when they need us. As the Fire Department responds 24/7, so do we. After the fire department completed the massive task of putting out this fire, we came out to secure this garage. 

Board-UP SERVICES, Windows, Fences and More.

Sarah Strader

Occasionally, we have requests to secure properties that have been secured before. Fences that need reinfoecemnt, windows that need to be secured, crawl spaces and other spaces that have been entered after they were once secured. 

Antique Store Board-up

Sarah Strader

A majority of our emergency calls happen in the evening and in the middle of the night. Occasionally we get a call during the day, the benefit for our clients of running a 24/7 services is we are available when they need us. We were called out to board up Vicki's Antiques, part of our emergency services includes our photographs, class cleanup and securing the door until the repairs can be completed. In the mean time the door is secure and they can rest assured the business is safe. 

When it Rains in CA- it pours!

Sarah Strader

When it rains in Southern California, it creates instering situations. What you cannot see in this photo was the "before" a car slid off the road went airborne, and landed nose up leaning on this roof. Truly deifying the laws is physics.  

As more of a storm front moves in we secured this roof from further damage and the second storm front of rain.  

As we know, dealing with insurance companies may not always be imidiate, however we are.

Do Not Enter

Sarah Strader

Do not enter. On occasion we are called and asked to arrive on site, for boarding up a door. When we arrive, we are always greeted by the police officer or the fire department, depending on the situation. 

They remain with us until the work is complete. This project was to board up and secure a door. We added assertional wood to the frame of the door and secured the door sized plywood to our framing. This leaves the least amount of scaring to the door frame and makes the site extremely secure, making it extremely difficult for gaining access.
