Once we have your approval we can arrange to complete the repairs if you so wish.

Update instructions by Email - You can contact us anytime and update instructions by email, free of charge. Part of our home security package includes sending you an email after each visit to your home with a report. 99% of the time there our report is "everything is fine", however we find that our customers like this service for their peace of mind.

Look in on family or neighbors - We can keep in touch with family or friends that may need that extra support while you are away. Sometimes just a phone call will do or delivering groceries.

Auto is ready-to-go - Will your car battery be dead when you want to head off to work the day after you return? We can warm up your car occasionally and move it in your driveway while you were away. This gives the home that lived in appearance as well as ensure that your battery is fully charged when you arrive home.

Limited Landscaping - We can cut the grass, trim the gardens and keep the yards looking top shape. Many customers also prefer us to add fertilizer to the lawn or arrange for lawn companies to look after their lawns for them. Whatever your preference, we can make the arrangements for you regarding lawn maintenance. This also contributes to that lived in look and improved security.

Snow Removal - A house that doesn't have the driveway shoveled regularly is a clear indication that there is nobody home. The thought of returning from a vacation or business to the prospect of that mountain of snow at the end of the driveway, is enough to spoil anybody's trip! We can make arrangements for the snow to be removed from your driveway or supervise your contractor.

Prepare for your return - Wouldn't it be nice to come home to a fresh loaf of bread and litre of milk, and maybe today's paper to tide you over until you have a chance to do some real grocery shopping? Our extra home security services can include this feature for you as well.

Maintain lights-install timers - We recommend leaving a couple of lights on in strategic locations, and they are checked as part of our basic service on every visit. We can also provide timers for your lamps, to give a greater appearance of activity in your home.
