10-Step Guide: What to Do After a Break-In

  1. Stay Calm
    In the shock of a break-in, it's important to stay calm and focused.

  2. Do Not Enter Your Home
    Never enter your property unless you are absolutely certain it is safe and that any intruders have left. Seek help from a neighbor if needed.

  3. Call the Police Immediately
    Contact the police right away. Use a mobile phone, not your home phone, to avoid tampering with potential evidence, like fingerprints.

  4. Avoid Touching Anything
    Do not disturb the crime scene. Leave everything exactly as you found it to preserve any important evidence.

  5. Call Us for Immediate Assistance
    Contact Emergency Glazing Bishop Stortford at 01279 212040 for fast, professional help in securing your property.

  6. Board Up Broken Windows or Doors
    To prevent further damage or intrusions, we can board up any broken windows or doors, making your home safe again.

  7. Make a List of Stolen Items
    Write down all stolen items for police records and insurance claims.

  8. Make Two Copies of the List
    Keep one copy for yourself and provide the other to your insurance company.

  9. Contact Your Insurance Company
    Report the break-in to your insurer as soon as possible to begin the claims process.

  10. Improve Your Home’s Security
    After a break-in, consider upgrading your home security with stronger locks, alarms, or other preventive measures.
