The Essentials Package

PROPERTY HEALTH & SYSTEMS CHECKS

An enhanced layer of protection that keeps your home running safely, smoothly, and efficiently. These checks build on the Core Package with added system‑health monitoring, environmental stability checks, and operational readiness — ideal for holiday lets, second homes, and properties left unoccupied for extended periods. 

Each visit includes clear digital reporting, photo documentation, immediate notification of any urgent issues, and recorded notes on items that may need attention.
