VOID Properties

VACANT PROPERTY INSPECTION SERVICES ACROSS THE UK

As the UK’s foremost provider of vacant property security services, there is much that we can do to make sure that your void and vacant buildings are kept secure and safe while not in use. Here are just a few of the options available to you…

ESSENTIAL SECURITY SOLUTIONS FOR VACANT AND VOID PROPERTIES

With more and more buildings standing empty across the region, void property security in the UK has never been more important. An open target for squatters, thieves, vandals, and arsonists, you need to treat any vacant buildings in your possession as being as important as inhabited ones.

 

Quite aside from the cost implications of repairing the premises and evicting squatters at some future date, you need to remember that, even though they forced their way into a vacant property, as the legal owner, you are still liable for any injuries incurred by the intruders whilst on site.

LOCKING UP & BOARDING UP

A simple way to discourage opportunists, whether they intend to steal from a void property or squat in it, is to seal it up. Our team of security experts will install new, heavy duty locks on all the doors and board up all of the windows, meaning that it will take a concerted effort from any would-be intruders to gain entrance. Suitable signage posted around the outside of the property declaring that it being protected by Marpol Security should act as a further deterrent.

UNLOCKING AND LOCKING BUILDINGS

CCTV SURVEILLANCE & ALARM RESPONSE

The next step from deterrence is monitoring. With our 24-hour CCTV system constantly monitored by our security specialists, we can have one of our mobile patrols to your vacant property at the first sign of trouble. Likewise, by utilising our alarm response service, should any break-in occur out of site of our cameras, our monitoring team will be alerted immediately. We have a number of CCTV packages available to our clients, including both temporary and permanent solutions.

MOBILE PATROLS

A more pro-active void property security service can be found among our mobile patrols. Our teams of dedicated and fully-licensed professional security guards will attend upon the building at intervals during the day and night

 

During their visits they will check that all doors and windows are secured, and that there have been no unauthorised attempts at entry.

 

While a certain number of checks will be performed over any given period, the timing of each inspection will be random, in case anybody is keeping an eye on comings-and-goings to the vacant property.

SERVICES

One of the most cost-effective ways to ensure your business premises remain safe is to arrange for regular inspections of your vacant buildings. These vacant property inspections can be performed as often as you wish and involve checking the windows and doors for signs of entry, as well as the rest of the building’s exterior for evidence of damage. If our inspection team spots anything suspicious, they will take immediate steps to report and secure the site.

Alarm Response

Here at Marpol Security, the safety and piece of mind of our clients is our chief concern. As a business owner, the last thing you want is to be disturbed or woken by a call from the police in response to an alarm going off

  • "I have been with Marpol Security since 2012, and in that time I have always found them to be a responsible security company. They have always acted in a professional manner, been totally honest, completely diligent and reliable whilst also being willing to accept responsibility for any additional task at very short notice. I have no hesitation in recommending Marpol Security to any potential future clients."

    Ian Hopkins, Bellway Home North West

  • "Marpol’s Operations Team attended the site and provided a comprehensive assessment of measures needed to secure it. I have been impressed by the diligence of their 24 hour monitoring of the mobile CCTV Towers on site, and the speed of their response service when trespassers have tried their luck. It has given us peace of mind to know that the site is safe and secure."
