Home / Why EPSC
Why do I need EPSC to watch my home while I'm away?
Protect one of your biggest investments, and enjoy your time away without the stress.
Your home, your investment
Being away shouldn't mean worrying
When you're away from your house, whether it's your vacation home or your primary home, being gone a few weeks, a month or a year can bring a lot of unneeded stress and worry.
Your property is one of your biggest investments, and you want to protect it from problems while you're away.
You may ask yourself…
Why can't I rely on friends, relatives or a neighbor?
Then you think…
What if my home is broken into or trespassed? Do I want to put my family or neighbor at risk?
Are they trained on what to check my home for?
Can I hold a friend or relative accountable if something goes wrong? And is it worth damaging our relationship?
What if they cause damage? Are they insured?
With today's cameras, why do we need a home check?
Can a camera spot…?
Cameras are great, but they can't walk through your home, smell gas or run your taps.
A security camera
- Can't spot mold, pest infestations, water leaks or broken windows
- Can't check that doors and windows are locked
- Can't see branches or trees that have fallen, or other damage
- Can't run your water and flush toilets to stop sewer gas
- Can't check room temperatures to keep pipes from freezing
- Can't check refrigerator and freezer temperatures
- Can't smell gas, or tell you there's a gas smell in your home
- Can't set your heat for your arrival or a guest's
An EPSC home check
- Inspects inside and out for mold, pests, leaks and broken windows
- Checks every door and window is locked
- Looks for fallen trees and branches and other damage
- Runs the water and flushes toilets during long vacancies
- Checks temperatures in every room when the heat is on
- Checks refrigerator and freezer temperatures
- A real person on site who can notice a gas smell
- Extra homeowner needs are always negotiable
