What happens when there is a storm … is your neighbor going to stay and keep an eye on your place and their own? We are here to stay, not to mention that if you’ve signed up for our Tarp Service, we would be there that day or the next depending on when the storm hits. As part of our Tarp Service (when you sign up), we will get a list from you of your trusted vendors (specifically plumbing / AC / Electric) and if something is down, we will call and get it taken care of. We will also post pictures online so you can see that we did what you paid us to do. This service is offered from May through December. (If you’re here until June, or come back in November, a discount may apply if prior notice is given)
As part of our Home Watch service, we can arrange to have your home professionally cleaned and your patio furniture put out; we can turn on the water heater, set you’re A/C , make sure the car starts, etc., if you let us know in advance of your arrival date (additional fees may apply).
Each owner’s property is unique. As a result, each report will be tailored to fit the individual property. Overall, the intent of the visit and report is to mitigate risk by looking for obvious issues and save the owner money in the long term if a problem is identified.
