Holiday Watch Scheme
Leaving your property unattended whilst on holiday or away on business need not be a worry with our property security in South Manchester and Cheshire. From the time of your departure we undertake scheduled and daily physical security foot patrols, conducted around the clock during the daytime as well as during the silent hours.
Key facts about our empty property security service:
- Random physical walk-around; this is an external inspection of the home at night and in the day.
- We remove absence indicators – for example mail/parcels. These are secured at the main office and returned to you on your arrival back home.
- We meet and greet any approved visitors at the house whilst you are away.
- If you have a house sitter or someone feeding the cats for example, we offer courtesy calls to ensure the security of the house is maintained.
- We inspect all external lights to ensure that they carry out the nightly activation function and ensuring they haven’t been tampered with.
- Once the bin has been emptied we wheel it back onto the grounds.
- We check on all vehicles that are left on the premises.
- Immediate and direct liaison with local law enforcement if required
A few things to remember before going away:
- It is imperative that you tell us before you leave to go on your holiday. Contact us now with the details.
- Devices/Alarms set
- Unplug or turn off electrical appliances
- Over pay or pre pay Utility bills if you are going to be away over a billing period
- Make sure the house is closed/locked
- Windows closed and locked
- Water off/timers set
- Any none travel vehicles locked and placed in the garage; all valuables removed from the car or hidden
- Inform your local Home Watch co-ordinator.
We are aware there are many more things to think about but these are just a few of our suggestions.
