Broken Windows
On arrival at the scene we will normally
secure the area to prevent injury to members of the public, take out any dangerous broken glass, where possible remove it
from internal and external areas, then board-up as necessary, if the owner or keyholder is available we will then arrange
for the broken glass to be replaced with the minimal delay by our sister company, FASTGLASS
Burglary Repairs
Being
burgled is one of the most traumatic things that can happen to you and your home, you have worked hard to surround yourself
with nice things and to have a home that is comfortable where you can relax, and feel secure, "An Englishmans Home is his
Castle", all this and the feelings that go with it can be destroyed in a matter of minutes, by a thief who can easily enter
your home and deprive you of your most treasured possessions, leave you with a feeling of insecurity and abuse that takes
many months to regain, dont let it happen to you! Splinters have been working very closely with the Police since the company
was founded, we are very sympathetic when attending burgled premises, on arrival at the scene we are forensically aware and
will always try and preserve any evidence left behind by the intruder(s), this can be footprints, fibres of clothing, blood,
instruments, or any other marks. Quite often inclement weather can destroy vital evidence which may at a later date lead
to a conviction. We therefore liase with the officer at the scene how the premises can be secured most effectively to preserve
such evidence.
Fire
Fire is one of the worst perils to affect your property, not only are your personal possessions
destroyed, so is the fabric of your home, sometimes structurally, you are then left without your home,possessions, or clothing,
your home as you knew it is dirty, smelly, and soaked in water, it may take months to get back to the way you once knew it.
The heat generated by a fire normally cracks most windows making them insecure, the fire service will normally break some
in an attempt to gain access to the source of the fire, their priority is to preserve life, any damage necessary to the premises
is a secondary consideration. Splinters have attended the scene of many fires, they are never pleasant, but unfortunately
many premises do get burgled following a fire, hard to believe isn't it ?
Ram Raids
More recently an ever
increasing crime we are called to is Impact by Motor Vehicle, either accidental, or intentional with the view to stealing
the contents of the shop, office or warehouse, normally the vehicle used will have been stolen previously and subsequently
dumped and set on fire by the offenders. The pond-life that carry out such crimes have no regard for the shop owners livelihood
and quite often the premises remain closed for some considerable time whilst major structural repairs are carried out, leading
quite often to the business subsequently closing.
Keyholding
We offer a comprehensive keyholding service,
through Alliance Security, why get called out at 3am on a cold wet night when we are already out there? We can secure
the premises and depending on your instructions arrange for a static guard to remain at your site, any subsequent damage done
by the intruders can be speedily secured, and alarm systems quickly reset.
