Homewatch Services Etc.

Homewatch Services Etc. We manage and perform home watch inspections, provide concierge services, and coordinate maintenance and service of residential properties.

We are one of the older more experienced home watch providers in Southwest Florida. Our #1 service provided is home watch and we take it seriously. We are trained with our industry’s/profession’s best practices and we utilize electronic reports with GPS technology for our clients. Having a neighbor stop in periodically as a favor to check your home may initially seem like a good idea. However, whe

n a serious issue arises or you need someone to take swift action on your behalf, your property can quickly become an imposition to your neighbor. That is why it is important to have a trained professional methodically inspect your home, complete a detailed inspection report per visit, and have the ability to swiftly coordinate licensed professionals to assist in the repair and maintenance of your home when something goes awry. I make it clear to our clients that we are not home inspectors or mold inspectors. That line of work carries a much different degree of training and state certification. We are “homewatch (home watch)” inspectors. The definition of Home Watch is the visual inspection of a home or property looking for obvious issues. If we notice any abnormalities, we immediately report it to you, and assist in coordinating licensed professionals to remedy the situation on your behalf in your absence. Essentially, we become an advocate for you in your absence, as a trusted resource. Unforeseen damage can happen at any time…especially in an unoccupied or vacant home. Your A/C compressor may go out, leaving your home victim to humid and stagnant air, causing the potential growth and spread of mold spores. A ceiling leak from a second floor condo may cause costly water damage to your property as well. Many things can go wrong in 30 days in an unoccupied property. That is why we strongly recommend 2-4 homewatch inspection visits per month.

A client's thermostat was registering 𝟳𝟰% humidity!!! We knew that couldn't be correct because our hygrometer was registering the humidity at 𝟰𝟳%. That's a 𝗕𝗜𝗚 difference! It turns out the hole in the wall behind the thermostat was too big, and it was drawing in humidity from inside the wall, and skewing the humidity reading being displayed on the thermostat. This is more common than many may think, but it's an easy fix. 🤓

𝗠𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗘𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰, 𝗔𝗰𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗶𝗼𝗻, & 𝗖𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗸 𝗦𝗵𝘂𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀:
Comprehensive shutter maintenance and cleaning should be completed on an annual basis. This type of cleaning regimen keeps your shutters in working order, ensuring that your shutters remain in optimum condition. Another added benefit, when you regularly clean and maintain your shutters, you significantly increase longevity of your shutters. Shutter maintenance also validates your shutter warranty! Remember that any moving parts of your shutters are susceptible weather, dirt, debris, as well as dead snails, frogs, and lizards that harden like small rocks and can cause damage to your shutters causing them to malfunction. 🤓
𝗠𝗼𝗰𝗸 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗼𝗳 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗣𝗮𝗻𝗲𝗹 𝗦𝗵𝘂𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀:
This is EXTREMELY important. I cannot begin to tell you how many times I put up manual panel shutters for clients and there were missing panels, missing hardware, the panels did not fit the wall studs, the wall anchors were loose, and the list goes on. Manual panel hurricane shutters are very time and labor intensive in putting them up prior to a storm. That is why you absolutely MUST make sure your manual panel shutters and hardware are all in place before you leave Florida for the summer months. Have your shutter guy do a trial run/mock install to ensure you are ready for the summer hurricane season ahead. They can also number all manual panel shutters so you know which panels go to which window. 😉

We’ve been in business for 24 years and have been accredited through the National Home Watch Association for 14 years now. Each year I look back and reflect on how the education, training, and networking (provided through the NHWA) has benefited my company. Needless to say, the NHWA is an exceptional organization that I’m pleased to be associated with.
