Vacant property grilles and screens in Ballymena: questions

Can you survey in Ballymena and nearby towns?

Yes. Surveys in Ballymena, Antrim, Magherafelt and elsewhere in County Antrim are booked around installer availability.

Are screens better than boarding?

Steel screens are stronger, harder to remove, let light in and generally look less neglected than timber boards.

Can screens be fitted to upper windows?

Yes, where they can be reached safely. Accessible upper windows above flat roofs or extensions are often included.

Do screens damage the building?

Screens are fixed with anchors that leave small holes, which we make good when the screens come down.
