The Red Raven

Why Emergency Board Up Was Required?

Property Recovery 911 was contacted by JD Glass and Door Company in the late afternoon on 06/06/2014 for an emergency board up in Bucks County Pennsylvania. JD Glass and Door Company contacts us for 24 hour board up, most often to secure commercial locations so they can remain unattended through the early morning hours while replacement glass and framing is being fabricated for rapid replacement. In this instance, the lug nuts on a car wheel sheared off and the wheel traveling at 60 mph made devastating impact with one of the commercial bay windows of the Red Raven Pub on 250 Lincoln Highway in Fairless Hills, PA. Fortunately, no one was injured in the incident. Property Recovery 911 arrived on location within one hour of being awarded the job and secured the window.

Vacant Property Board Up

There is a wealth of information online describing how to boardup property in preparation for an approaching hurricane, but very little exists providing details distinguishing vacant property board up. The purpose of hurricane boardup is to protect the subject property from the effects of high winds. The reason for vacant property board up is to secure the property and therefore, the methods used to board up windows of a vacant property is different in several respects.

Atkore Intl.

Property Recovery 911 was contacted a second time by Atkore International's Allied Tool & Conduit for a North East Philadelphia board up.  The initial board up was a result of fire emergency crews venting the building by breaking windows. Our contact at Allied Tool & Conduit requested that only 7 first level windows boarded up for security purposes.  They had planned to have glass quickly installed in the remaining 24 second level windows.

Montgomery County Mold Remediation

Property Recovery 911 was given the opportunity to look at this mold remediation job.  Currently the situation is embroiled in legal preceding involving the owner, neighbor and insurance company in an effort to determine liability; which I believe belongs to a long gone builder.  This mold clean up job will be on hiatus until the warring factions can come to an agreement.  Until then, Property Recovery 911 is ready, willing and able to create a healthy mold free environment.

Board Up in Philadelphia

Property Recovery 911 was called to a door board up in Center City Philadelphia resulting from a break in.  The door was breached most likely with a large screwdriver, which destroyed the door and the door jamb creating an unsafe situation for the inhabitants. We screwed the damaged door shut and boarded up the entry way, creating a safe environment until the compromised door and frame are replaced. We are available 24/7/365 for emergency commercial and residential board up services.

Industrial Building Board Up

Atkore International mother company of Allied Tool & Conduit experienced fire damage on Saturday 05/17/2014. Property Recovery 911 (https://propertyrecovery911.com/) was contacted to secure the location in the the late afternoon. We used no damage tension board up techniques, which does not damage commercial aluminum window frames with screw holes and will give Atkore the choice to simply replace the glass and not the entire frame.
