Fire Damage Restoration
Board-Up & Tarping Services
Secure the structure. Stop the secondary damage.
Every hour your property sits exposed, weather and vandalism multiply your losses. We respond 24/7 and document everything for your insurance claim.
Overview
After a fire, broken windows, compromised doors, and damaged roofing expose your property to weather, vandalism, and unauthorized entry. Every hour without protection multiplies your loss. AAA Disaster Recovery deploys board-up and tarping crews 24/7 to secure your property within hours of your call — protecting what the fire didn't take.
Our Process
How We Handle It
Immediate Dispatch
We respond around the clock. A crew is deployed within hours of your call to assess structural vulnerabilities and begin securing the property.
Structural Safety Assessment
Before any work begins, our technicians evaluate load-bearing integrity to ensure the building is safe to approach and secure.
Window & Door Board-Up
All compromised openings — windows, doors, garage entries — are boarded with heavy plywood panels anchored securely to the frame.
Roof Tarping
Fire-damaged or burned-through roof sections are covered with heavy-duty polyethylene tarps, anchored to prevent wind uplift and water intrusion.
Perimeter Fencing (If Needed)
For large-loss events, we coordinate temporary chain-link fencing to restrict unauthorized access to the property during restoration.
Documentation & Handoff
All board-up and tarping work is photographed and documented for your insurance claim before we transition to full restoration.

Common Questions
FAQs
How quickly can you board up a fire-damaged property?
We aim to have a crew on-site within 2–4 hours of your call anywhere in the greater Austin area. For large commercial properties, we coordinate multiple crews for simultaneous deployment.
Does insurance cover emergency board-up and tarping?
Yes. Temporary protective measures like board-up and tarping are covered under most homeowner and commercial property policies as mitigation expenses. We document everything for your adjuster.
Can you board up while the fire department is still on scene?
We coordinate with fire and emergency personnel and will stage on-site until the scene is cleared and we have safe access to begin securing the property.
Do you handle the full restoration after boarding up?
Absolutely. Board-up is the first step in our comprehensive fire damage restoration process. The same team that secures your property manages the complete remediation and rebuild.
