Securing a fire damaged home the same night: boarding broken windows and doors, and tarping roof damage so weather stays out.
Board-up in El Cajon is the first fire job, not an afterthought. Broken windows, a burned door, and roof openings leave the home open to weather, animals, and entry, and East County wind works on loose material the same night. Openings are boarded and roof damage tarped the same night where possible, photographed for the insurance file before anything is covered. A boarded home also protects the soot and contents work inside it: every rain through an open roof restarts the damage clock.
Board up is the one fire job that should never wait until tomorrow. Insurers expect the property to be protected from further damage, and an unsecured home after a fire is a known target. If the fire department has released the home, this call can be made the same night.
