House Watching Services
Whether you are locking your property up for a month or several months, it is never a good idea to just assume that all will be fine until you return.
Not having someone qualified looking in on your property on a regularly scheduled basis is an invitation to all kinds of potential problems such as;
- Insect infestation
- unauthorized pool or house use
- theft or vandalism
- mold/mildew damage and odors
- water damage from leaks, etc., etc…….
We highly recommend
Inspect exterior of property for;
- Storm damage
- Visible insect infestation
- Evidence of illegal entry
- Unsolicited newspapers in driveway and mailbox
Inspect interior of property for;
- Visible insect infestation
- Evidence of illegal entry
- Visible storm damage
- Mold/mildew growth (odors)
- Flush toilets and add deodorizer
- Run water in all taps for several minutes
- Verify thermostat settings are operating correctly
- Verify electronic timers are set and operational (if applicable)
- General cleaning at least once per month
Notes:
Keeping in mind that virtually every home/homeowner is different, we have listed a very basic inspection list. Understanding that your individual priorities will probably differ or
Expand on what we have listed, we would invite and encourage your input.
In instances where we find visible evidence of storm damage, whether it be from wind, fallen trees, water, etc., you will be contacted for instructions on remedy. We can contact, with your approval, local contractors for repairs.
In instances where we find visible evidence of illegal entry or vandalism, the appropriate authorities will be contacted and they will in turn contact you. We would take remedial actions based on their instructions.
Should minor repairs to any part of your property be required, we can arrange to have the work done by a local contractor, with your written permission.
Charges for the above services are as flexible as your needs
