What is vacant property patrols?

Vacant property patrols in London — marked-vehicle patrols that check empty premises inside and out, with a report for every visit.

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. Every vacant property patrols assignment in London is planned around your site, your risks and your budget — never a one-size-fits-all package.
