Why Harbert homes need Home Watch
When the house is closed, heat setbacks and idle plumbing are where the trouble starts. A regular visit looks at water, heat, locks, and storm wear before it spreads.
What every visit covers
- Exterior walk: roof line, gutters, siding, decks, doors, windows, screens
- Entry points locked and secure; no signs of entry
- Interior: leaks, stains, moisture; under sinks, toilets, water heater, supply lines
- Heat & thermostat verified; sump pump and basement/crawl checked
- Fridge/freezer running; breakers checked; pests or animals
- Mail, packages, and flyers cleared so the place looks lived in
- Same-day photo report by text or email after every visit
Storm, freeze & leak checks
After a blow off the lake or a deep freeze I check for open points, ice, leaks, and whether the sump and heat are still doing their job.
