Essential Temporary Protection Solutions
As the leaves start to fall after a very warm and dry summer, the weather is turning colder, wetter and muddier, leaving construction sites, refurb projects and new builds new challenges. Autumn is a transitional season, one moment you’re battling downpours and slippery ground, the next you’re preparing for frost and the clocks changing and darker evenings. Without the right protection in place, these changes can impact safety, slow down progress and risk damage to floors, surfaces and external ground areas.
At Sitepro, we specialise in temporary protection products designed to keep your project running smoothly, whatever the weather throws at you. From Correx sheets and carpet protection films to ground protection mats and cold weather protection, here’s how to protect your site this autumn.

Protecting Floors from mud, moisture and heavy footfall
Autumn inevitably brings mud and excess water onto site, making it more important than ever to protect floors from damage.
Carpet Protection
Wet weather means muddy boots become a real issue indoors. Our carpet protector film is a quick and reliable solution, forming a barrier against dirt, spills and stains. It’s an essential during refurbishments where existing carpets need to be preserved.
Correx Floor Protection
Lightweight yet durable, Correx Sheets (sometimes referred to as Corex or Correx board) are a must have temporary floor protection. They’re impact-resistant, waterproof, and easy to cut to size, making them perfect for walkways, stairs, and large surface areas. For added safety, our fire retardant Correx provides extra reassurance where regulations demand flame-retardant solutions.
Safeguarding External Areas
With heavy machinery and site traffic, autumn’s wetter ground can quickly turn external spaces into hazardous mud baths. That’s where ground protection mats come in.
These robust mats spread vehicle weight, prevent ruts and bogging, and help keep site access routes functional even in challenging weather. They’re essential for construction sites and events where vehicles or plant equipment are moving regularly.
Keeping Windows and Surfaces Safe
As work progresses, protecting new or existing finishes from damage is key. Autumn often brings harsher winds, which can increase dust and debris.
Our Window Protection Film prevents scratches, dust build-up, and accidental damage during work. Custom Printed Film is also available, allowing companies to reinforce their branding while keeping surfaces safeguarded.
Similarly, printed Correx offers the same strong protection as standard Correx but with your logo professionally displayed. It’s a simple way to improve site presentation and brand visibility, especially when multiple contractors are working side by side.
Temporary Fencing and Site Safety
Shorter daylight hours in autumn can make site safety and security even more critical. Our temporary fencing products help define boundaries, protect workers and the public, and keep your project compliant.
Preparing for Frost and Cold Weather
Autumn often acts as the warning bell for the frost ahead. Having cold weather protection ready before winter sets in is essential for safety and efficiency. From frost blankets to sandbags, Sitepro’s cold weather protection products ensure materials and site conditions remain workable when temperatures drop.
