Trust / Positioning Intro

We serve second-home owners, seasonal residents, and estate clients across the new hampshire seacoast and southern maine who want dependable, when they can’t be there themselves. What sets us apart is our security-aware approach to home watch. While many providers simply walk through a property on a schedule, we look at your home through a risk and prevention lens—considering access points, environmental exposures, and occupancy patterns.
Services Overview
Traditional In-person Home Watch
We provide professional, scheduled home watch visits for clients who prefer a classic, hands-on approach. Each visit follows a property-specific checklist developed after your consultation and includes interior and exterior checks, security observations, and documented reporting. This option is ideal for homeowners who value simplicity and personal oversight without smart home technology.

Our Approach
Traditional home watch focuses on visible issues during periodic visits. That’s important—but it’s not always enough. We approach each property as a unique security and risk profile. While we do not install monitored alarm systems, we have experience securing residential properties and mitigating risk through practical, real-world measures.
After your consultation, we create a customized home watch plan that defines how each visit is conducted—what is checked, how issues are documented, and what actions are taken if a concern is identified. You also receive a documented report of findings that identifies any vulnerabilities or areas of concern, along with recommended options to resolve or mitigate those risks.
