Trusted Home Watch Services

Unoccupied homes are vulnerable and at higher risk of break-ins, vandalism, water damage, mold, rodents, and more.

If you have to file a claim, your insurance company may require proof that the home was checked. At Home Watch Professional House Checks, we provide state-of-the-art reports with GPS Tracking each time we perform a home watch. This could be the difference between a claim being denied or accepted. 

According to the National Home Watch Association, "Some Canadian homeowners insurance requires Home Watch Visits as often as every forty-eight hours when the home is unoccupied."

 Have you ever faced leaks or water damage at home? It's a frequent issue for many homeowners. Now, consider the risks when you're away: how confident are you that your home is safeguarded against potential threats like sump pump failures, ice dam leaks, power outages, furnace malfunctions, or frozen pipes? 

 Have you ever noticed how your neighbor's driveway stays clear of tire tracks on snowy days, or how their mailbox piles up with newspapers and mail? It's a clear sign they’re away or on vacation. But have you thought about how criminals or squatters might notice these same signs at your home when you're gone? Give us a call. During every home watch visit, we make sure to remove any signs of an unoccupied property, keeping your home safe and secure. 

During winter, Rochester and Western New York can experience heavy snowfall that can harm a house's structure. Ice damming, in particular, can cause water damage, rot, and mold to the interior of your home in a short period. We check the roof, exterior, and interior during our home watch visits. We will even come out after a storm and advise you immediately if we observe any damage.

Living in New York means dealing with extreme weather, including snow, wind, rain, and ice. These storms can lead to various issues like fallen trees, flooded basements, sump pump failure, and downed power lines, causing substantial damage to our homes. Our emergency home watch visits involve carefully checking for damage and promptly informing you.

 Are you confident in your home surveillance system's ability to detect every possible issue? While cameras can capture motion, they might miss a water leak or malfunctioning furnace. Additionally, what happens if there's a power outage or Wi-Fi failure? Don't take any chances with your home security. We offer home watch visits at your preferred frequency to give you the peace of mind you deserve!
