Vacant Property Inspections

If your premises are lying empty, you may be worried about the risk of criminal damage such as burglary or vandalism. A vacant property is more vulnerable to undetected fires and flooding, squatters, fly-tipping and there’s also the added danger of legionella bacteria building up in stagnant water systems.

Vacant Property Inspections by Securitas UK

Protect your interests

To counteract these risks, your building insurance provider is likely to require that you put extra management and security measures in place to safeguard the vacant property. Some businesses deploy additional guarding manpower and use other suppliers to inspect and report back on the condition of the property. This piecemeal approach can increase both your administrative workload and your outgoings. In contrast, our range of direct inspection, mobile patrols and remote surveillance options can be integrated and tailored to provide a cost-effective solution to your needs. With a 9000+ nationwide team, we can carry out vacant property checks on single or multiple sites across the UK.
