What is squatter prevention?

Squatter prevention in Carrickfergus — proactive guarding, patrols, alarms and board-up that keep squatters out of your empty property.

As part of our wider vacant property security in Carrickfergus, this service is delivered by officers who are trained, licensed and briefed specifically to your premises. Vacant property security protects buildings that are empty between tenants, sales, development or probate. It combines physical measures (guarding, patrols, board-up) with electronic ones (CCTV, alarms) and regular documented inspections.
