What is squatter prevention?

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

In Waltham Forest, our squatter prevention sits within a complete vacant property security offering, so cover can scale up or down as your needs change. 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.

Why Waltham Forest businesses need squatter prevention

Waltham Forest has its own security picture — the mix of premises, footfall and risk across North East London isn't the same as anywhere else. We deploy officers who understand the area and tailor squatter prevention to what your Waltham Forest site actually needs, rather than a generic template.

  • Proactive deterrence

Who we protect in Waltham Forest
