What is squatter prevention?

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

As part of our wider vacant property security in Gipsy Hill, 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.

From busy commercial districts to quieter sites on the edge of South London, Gipsy Hill needs security that fits its surroundings. We assess your premises, agree exactly what cover looks like, and put licensed officers in place who can respond quickly across Gipsy Hill and the neighbouring areas.

Vetted officers deployed

BS 7858 vetting & screening

The people protecting your Gipsy Hill premises are thoroughly vetted to BS 7858, so you can be confident in who's on site — not just that they hold a licence, but that they've been properly background-checked.
