Intruders, whether thieves, vandals or curious individuals, can result in significant damage to your void property. The time and cost of rectifying the damage caused by vandalism or theft is a waste of resources that can be far better deployed elsewhere. After all, the whole point of void property status is to save money.
Theft – Many void properties still retain many valuable items and anything worth something is a target for criminals.
Squatting – According to the Property Reporter website, there has been a massive upsurge in commercial property squatting, likely a direct result of the UK tightening up the laws on squatting which made it a criminal offence to occupy a residential building.
Vandalism – Intruders to your void property, whether squatters, thieves or vandals is highly likely should an incident occur. It’s not their property, why should they care? Sad as it is, it’s essential to have an effective set of security protocols in place to prevent intrusions, and to minimise the damage and loss that occurs should the worst happen.
Assessment – We assess each new site ourselves so that we can ensure we provide effective cover from our point of view.
Implementation – One of our Area Service Managers will visit you, discuss your particular concerns, and agree on a route and schedule for the security guards to patrol. Together you will identify set landmarks en route which our officers will photograph as they patrol to provide up to date imagery of the state of your site as they go.
Reporting – We document every step of our security guards’ route and report daily on our findings and observations.
