Home Watch is the visual inspection of a home or property, looking for obvious issues.

What does this mean and why do you need Us?

“Whether your HOME is your “Primary Residence”, “Vacation Home”, or “Rental Investment”, leaving it unoccupied or unattended for long periods of time is never a good idea”

Water damage, wind damage, mold / mildew or pest infestations are only a few of the many serious problems that can arise in an uninhabited residence. Unnoticed and untreated, these issues only get worse.

Let our family here at “FOUR SEASONS HOME CONCIERGE SERVICES” help you and your family avoid costly insurance claim denials if there is damage to your property while you are away from home.

Let us make scheduled visits to your home to check for any potential problems. If an issue does arise, we will contact you immediately to discuss the best options for dealing with the situation.

Below are examples of our typical home watch services:

However, we know there is no such thing as a typical homeowner, that’s why we always work with each and everyone of our clients to develop a “Customized Checklist” that addresses specific personal needs and concerns:

Exterior:

  • Visually checking windows and doors for signs of forced entry/vandalism. Ensuring that all are closed / locked.

  • Checking for visible signs of water/pest damage.

  • Clearing entrance of trash, newspapers, flyers, and junk mail.

  • Confirm lawn and garden are being maintained. Water outdoor plants and shrubs. Remove any trash from the yard.

Interior:

  • Running water in all sinks and tubs. Flushing toilets, checking for leaks in visible plumbing.

  • Visually checking for leaks in ceilings, under sinks, and in appliances that use water.

  • Checking electrical service panel for tripped breakers,

  • Testing batteries in smoke/carbon monoxide alarms and changing when needed.

  • Checking HVAC air filter and changing when needed.

  • Monitoring thermostat and seasonally adjusting home temperature to clients’ desired temperature.

  • Water indoor plants.

  • Check garage spaces, spa, pool, or extra storage buildings.

  • Setting and checking all house alarms and surveillance systems before leaving property.

We also offer additional “a la carte” services as requested or desired:

  • Automobile care: Start and idle car/ test drive vehicles to keep them running well. Boost battery or arrange repairs or auto detailing, if necessary.

  • Pre/Post-storm Inspection: Inspect premises before/after heavy rain, snow/ice storm or flooding.
