Home Watching

Home watching is a professional service where trained individuals perform regular, scheduled inspections of your home while you are away. These visits ensure your property remains safe, secure, and well-maintained during your absence, whether you are on
vacation, a seasonal resident, or away for business reasons.

Our home watching involves us doing complete inspection of your home to make sure that there is no break-ins, damage, pest infestation, burst pipes, adequate temperature control, etc.

  • Peace of Mind: Know that a trusted professional is checking on your property, reducing worries about unforeseen issues.
  • Early Detection of Problems: Small issues such as leaks, pests, or electrical problems can be identified and addressed before they become costly damages.
  • Security: Regular occupancy checks can deter potential break-ins, vandalism, or squatters by making the home appear lived-in.
  • Insurance Compliance: Many insurance policies require regular checks on vacant properties; a home watcher helps you meet these requirements.
  • Maintenance Oversight: Home watchers can oversee scheduled maintenance, deliveries, or contractors, ensuring services are performed properly.
